The last 2 years here for my son have been extremely helpful! The whole team here is so kind and understanding. My son started speech therapy when he was 3 with Maddie, Sydney, and Lisa! He always enjoyed his learning sessions! They incorporated everything to help my son with his speech delays and I can't thank them enough. He has the tools and knowledge now to be a spectacular kindergartner! We love you folx! read more

Fluens Children's Therapy - A picture my son and Sydney drew! - Speech Therapists Near Me - University Place, Washington

Fluens is THE best! I have two kiddos receiving speech therapy, this is the 3rd place we have been to in the past 5 years and hands down I'm so thankful we found Fluens! They are all super friendly and compassionate. at the last place we went (MMG in Lakewood) it was not a great experience & after almost a year they ended up having issues with our insurance and would not take on my other kiddo due to being "too full" any who Fluens is great my kids have advance so much since we made the switch and best of all there is NOT a high turnover (like MMG) and my kiddos love their teachers! We have been at Fluens for almost 2 years. read more

Little Children get sick often. Sometimes kids are fine in the morning, afternoon and start being congested or running fever in the evening, if your Child gets sick after the deadline this company makes - after 4 pm- this company changes you automatically $25 for keeping your kid at home. When you call them and ask to talk to a manager, a manager is never available and will not return your call. Also, they keep changing the instructor on your kid and not tell you anything. They also do their 27 minutes session exactly -Never 30 minutes. They expect you to be with your Child on time, but they don't start on time. But they do finish on time. They keep telling you that your Child is making a progress, but u notice no improvement at home or school. I've been taking my kid there for 2 years and had enough read more

Wow! Beyond unprofessional and I cannot even believe people like this is playing with children's wellbeing and parents' emotion without thinking long term consequences. I wish I can give no star if this was an option. On August 2nd, 2022, I got a call from Fluens Speech claiming that they will remove my child from the service because the insurance has not forwarded them the check despite being mailed to them on July 14, 2022. Instead of working with the parents, they flat out made a threats that if I didn't provide them with CC right away to "take care of the balance," their hands are tied to conitnue treating my kid because the boss told them not to take my child. I got upset. I reluctantly gave them my CC because I did not want my child to stop progressing. In the same week, they were forcing me to sign up for the Occupational Therapy without getting a referral from the pediatrician. They claimed my child will benefit extremely because she does not concentrate. After asking whether we needs referral from physician, the therapist said, "yes you may or may not and pay out of pocket." Indicating that that's what they were hoping I would do. On August 5, 2022, an intern tried to take my kid to the therapy room. I have seen this intern before but never gave the permission for her to conduct a solo therapy on my child. I stopped the intern. Asked if the primary therpist is joining them. She replied that the primary therapist will only supervise and will join eventually but not conduct the therapy. I was never informed of this arrangement. So I said I did not feel comfortable. Subsequently, I spoke with the owner. Owner claimed that she was aware of my negative experience with inexperienced therapist and would make an arrangement accordingly. On August 9, 2022, the Owner calls and cancels our service all together claiming that I "disrespected" the therapists by pointing the above incidents, and that I described another therapist by her apperance as I could not remember her name. In May 2022, when my child was initially evaluated by their therapist, the bilingual staff demanded my child to call her "Ms..." instead of "teacher, " which she uses to address all her therapists, and teachers. I did not say anything to that therapist as I was aware of her cultural expectation. After the evaluation, I told the receptionist that I would rather not have my child have ongoing session with this particular therapist due to what I have observed. During that progress, I did not remember the therapist name, and described her as "bilingual Hispanic therapist." Today, apparently, Jessica claims that was offensive and disrespectful because I described this particular therapist by appearance. When asked other incidents, Jessica was unable to name any. She just repeated that my child can continue therapy elsewhere as she already made an arrangement. When I called the new places she "arranged," the next available date was in January 2023. Not immediate. She just caused my child to be left without any continuing therapy. Because she got caught doing something without consent from parents. The consequence of her action is disgusting because she obviously does not care about the children's well being and only sees them as a dollar sign. Oh just to give you background why I didn't want this therapist to see my kid, she is four. Not fourteen, not six, coming to see them for speech issue and the therapist spent about 15 minutes trying to scold my kid to call her Ms. not teacher. My kid got so stressed she ignored the therapist. Which is why I told the clinic I did not want her to continue with my child. read more

My girls and I love Fluens. My 8 year old needed some small encouragement with just a couple sounds last year. We always appreciated the attention and the plan they had for her. Now, my 3 year old needs a lot of help with her speech, and in just a couple of months of twice a week visits, she has grown so much! We are so thankful for all the staff members who are always friendly and encouraging. They give us ideas of what to work on at home and listen to our concerns. I recommend Fluens to anyone who is looking for speech help for their kids! read more

Jessica & April are amazing! Since the day we have found them they have had our son on the move & improving on his speech. We were on a waitlist with a different therapy service and they were able to get us in sooner. We are glad we found them, no waitlist & weekly sessions available based on need too! They offer more than speech therapy but thats what we attend for our son! So grateful! read more

My son was tested the last week of July. The owner promised that an instructor would reach out to us to discuss the improvement if any and give us a copy of the test. Nobody reached out to us. We called a week later. The test has not been reviewed. We called 10 days later. Same result. Now school starts and we want the test to provide to the school. We called and spoke to Ashley who said is is emailing to us the test. I verified the email they have on record. Was correct. However, still no email was sent to us. It's been a month since the kid took the test read more

My daughter has been taking speech therapy classes for 3 years through the school system, but nothing seemed to be helping. She wasn't making any progress and she was hating every minute of it. When I found Fluens children's therapy and Jessica we were thrilled. I am amazed at the progress my daughter is making in such a short amount of time. My daughter not only speaks more clearly now but she also really enjoys going to therapy. I often hear them giggling in the back as they are working. The receptionist April is great too. I really appreciate her working with our busy schedules and sending me reminders for appointments. read more

Jessica was amazing with my son! She is such a great speech therapist and you can tell she loves what she does. She made it so fun that I had hard time getting him to leave when the session was done! If you have any concerns with your child's development - I couldn't recommend her more! read more

My son has been going to Fluens starting at the beginning of the Summer for work on his "R" sounds. He was born tongue tied, and despite our best efforts; he was still struggling to execute this sound at 8 years old. He was very nervous and reluctant to see Jessica for the first visit, but quickly emerged all smiles and enthusiastically looks forward to his appointments. He has improved tremendously in just a few months and his confidence has skyrocketed. He is proud of the work he is doing at Fluens and has educated his entire extended family and friend group about the complexities of how we make our "R" sounds. We have all learned a lot and couldn't be happier! read more
