As an adult, 39, reaching out for help with stuttering can be a pride-swallowing experience, but…read moreit's even harder when all you find are speech therapists for children. It seemed like either no speech therapist in Austin catered to adults, or there are no adult stutters in the city...besides me. Needless to say, the search was discouraging, and I was about to forget it and carry on as I have been until I came across Wildflower Speech Therapy. Allison Elium is fantastic! She's quick to reply via email, and I had an appointment setup within days of contacting her. Her approach is direct yet soothing, and educational without coming across condescending (stutters can be quite sensitive to things like that.) She emails me articles I might find interesting or informative and I do the same with her. Her demeanor is so kind and relaxing that I find myself speaking freely to the point that she'll ask me to force a stutter so we can work on it in the office. I could go on and on, but instead I'll just say that taking the first step to empowering myself by asking for help was the hardest part of speech therapy. Everything else has been rather enjoyable, and that is 100% due to Allison at Wildflower Speech Therapy.

I am an adult in my early 30s and have been stuttering my entire life. For those of you that can relate, you know what I'm talking about and how impactful that can be. I admit, at first I was skeptical of seeking therapy for my stuttering but figured I'd give it a shot. And I'm definitely glad I did! After a few months or therapy, I can see improvements of my day-to-day life. I would be glad to work with Allison again.

She was such an excellent speech pathologist to our eldest that we simply had to seek her out when our second child needed some help too. She expertly dissects the needs of each child, creates a plan of action, provides helpful tips for continued training at home, and shows a deep care for the kids. Her enthusiasm is through the roof! So much so that my kid absolutely LOVES to go visit Ms. Phuong! He doesn't even think he is going to the doctor, he is going to speech class, where he gets to play and have fun. I don't think a better review can be given to any business than that of a returning client. We are returning clients and she is absolutely the best!

My little one saw Erin Gonzalez here for speech therapy for six months. Three-four stars for the…read moretherapy content and one for the billing nonsense at the end. Erin is very sweet with children and kiddo enjoyed the speech therapy. She had a few tips that stuck and my little one's enunciation - which wasn't horrible, but was a bit behind peers - did improve during that time. At the end of six months, based on feedback from kiddo's teacher and some other educational figures, as well as my /grandparents/coparent's perception of moderate improvement, we decided to close out the therapy sessions. Erin looked a bit disappointed when I told her the final date, but was professional enough. She insisted that she would "re-assess" progress during that day's session, instead of going over the usual consonant sounds. She sold it a bit - kept talking about it - and I agreed, thinking it was harmless enough to have a written record of progress. The initial assessment at our first visit had been priced the same as the ensuing therapy sessions, so I wasn't worried about pricing. Erin went over her "re-assessment" of kiddo upon our return. My initial perception was that she showed the need for speech therapy as more extreme than assessed at our first visit. There was a minimal nod in one segment to minor progress. There were multiple areas where the report seemed to show regression. It was a bit alarming and my first thought was that she was far less happy about our quitting than she had expressed. Thinking I might not remember the initial assessment accurately, I compared the two reports when I arrived home. My initial instinct was correct. The second surprise arrived a month or two later. A bill (despite our having paid the usual co-pay at the visit) for THREE TIMES the co-pay. Almost $200. Because Tesoros had billed insurance differently, this "re-assessment" had been assessed differently in connection with our deductible and the insurance wouldn't pay. Calls to Tesoros (it took a week of daily calls to get a person on the line) resulted in a circular explanation of how they bill re-assessments. They couldn't explain why it would *need* to be done on a child's next-to-last visit, or why it was billed at a higher rate and filed with insurance differently than the initial assessment. After months of going back and forth with them, I've reported them to my insurance company's fraud team, paid the bill to avoid a credit report ding, and am reviewing them here. It's left us with a very sour impression of what was, otherwise, quite a harmless and neutral experience.

Both my children went to this school for a year of preschool, even though the school considered…read morethem both to be neurotypical, after my older son got kicked out of his preschool for behavioral issues. I can't say enough good things about Williams. They have on-site behavioral therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. Each classroom has a quiet sensory room attached for children who get over stimulated, and there's an indoor gross motor room that my son was able to able to utilize when he became too hyperactive. They have smaller class sizes, and were able to work with him one-on-one when he needed it. The teachers and other staff were all very competent and capable. We interviewed at several different schools, most of which had said that they would be willing to take him and might be able to meet his needs, but it gave me a great deal of Peace of mind KNOWING that this school would be able to with with him regardless of his behaviors. Both my children thrived at the school, where they were only surviving before. I also think it was a very valuable experience for both of them to be surrounded by this diverse population and the teacher was even able to challenge them both academically, even though they were only in preschool. They both loved going to school there, and they learned a lot! My older son was eventually diagnosed with ADHD, sensory integration disorder, and a tic disorder.

I unfortunately did not get the opportunity to experience the staff's services because the…read morereception office staff experience was completely unprofessional. I called to inquire about an evaluation for my child. The lady with what sounded like an English accent asks if my insurance was with an employer. It was not. Then she asks "is it Marketplace"? Not knowing what marketplace was, I said yes. Then she curtly said that this insurance was not accepted. After the call, I logged into my insurance (which was purchased directly from UnitedHealthcare) and, sure enough, they WERE in network, as I had UHC Choice, and not Marketplace, I call back telling her this information and was referred to the manager, and he was repeating the same information. I told him I misspoke and clarified that I did not have Marketplace insurance and that I purchased the insurance directly from the UHC website, which he claimed this wasn't a thing (YES, this is a thing, because I did it. ). They didn't bother to fully check to see if the office was in network (didn't actually ask for my Member ID information or other details) which is what dozens of offices have done as standard protocol. Eventually the man did say that we can take my insurance, but wouldn't be able to accept my husband's Aetna insurance in 2026 - but that I could still schedule something under my current insurance. ABSOLUTELY NOT! The conversation with reception left a bad taste in my mouth and I have scheduled evaluation services elsewhere. I would recommend in-house office training on how not to escalate insurance issues and on common customer service skills. And if insurance companies are listing your office as in-network when it's not, you need to figure out how to fix that on your end.

The exercises weren't anything you can't find on YouTube and I didn't feel like the range of motion exams even pinpointed the issues I was having.

Additionally, I had issues with an additional session being scheduled without my knowledge and a billing issue for which I couldn't get proper explanation. It's just a disaster from start to finish, in my experience. I've had physical therapy before at other providers and had a much better experience at far more reasonable prices.

It looks like they tried to charge my insurance company $360 and they only covered $300, or maybe they wouldn't pay any of it and so they adjusted the price down to $60 because they knew $360 was a ripoff. I don't understand why these places can't just charge what they charge and stop trying to milk our healthcare system for all it's worth. They're part of the problem. They also use the worst smelling cleanser I've ever smelled. Fabuloso or something. Awful chemicals. The doctor was nice though.
