Testimonials
"Allison is outstanding in person as well as online!"
Allison is incredible! I highly recommend her due to her approach, communication, dedication, and sincere attention.
My daughter met with Allison from January through July this year. She identified the issue, explained the plan, and kept me updated and informed throughout this journey. She was clear on what was required of my wife and me, and we experienced an open channel of communication.
I also want to commend Allison for the transition to online - we made the switch in March due to COVID-19, and there was no loss nor delay in progress with my daughter. Allison is outstanding in person as well as online!

"After a few months of therapy, I can see improvements of my day-to-day life"
I loved working with Allison at Wildflower Speech Therapy! She has really helped me through a variety of techniques and ways I can cope with my stuttering. 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.

"Our son became a more confident and engaged young man"
Our family highly recommends Allison at Wildflower Speech Therapy. She worked with our teenage son to resolve a lisp and develop confidence in speaking and making presentations. Through Allison's careful attention, skilled guidance and warm encouragement, our son not only improved the clarity of his speech, but also became a more confident and engaged young man in class, in social settings and in interactions with adults. Allison has a gentle and kind manner and easily won the trust and respect of our son. He valued the sessions and her guidance and was inspired to work diligently on the exercises between sessions. We are so very thankful to Allison.

"Helps them refine their speech techniques without them realizing they are working"
Allison is an excellent speech therapist and my 7 year old really enjoyed his appointments with her. He "graduated" from therapy yesterday and while we are so happy with his progress, and proud of the work he has done, we will actually miss going to see her. She has a warm and engaging way of interacting with kids that helps them refine their speech techniques without them really even realizing they are working. Allison plays games and keeps the entire process fun for the kids so they look forward to appointments. She is great about trying different approaches. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a speech therapist. In fact, I've already recommended her!

"His speech therapy has been such a Godsend at this time of his life"
“We are very, very happy with J’s progress. We've noticed, especially in the last several weeks, J’s ability to work through the stutter when it does occur. He has an ease and less of a struggle and a calmness which he didn't have before your therapy with him. We are thrilled! J’s job has put him in the position of traveling all over the Austin area, and he deals with the public in his travels. His speech therapy has been such a Godsend at this time of his life with his new job and we believe it has given him a confidence and ability to verbally navigate these waters with an ease of ability. Thank you, Allison.”

"She has the ability to turn anything into a game"
"She has the ability to turn anything into a game and this allows my son to practice and improve his speech without realizing that he is actually doing speech therapy. She has also given me materials and ideas to allow me to help him when we are at home. Allison integrates her tablet into the games in a way that allows her to record his speech and then she lets him hear himself saying the words so that he can learn to correct himself when he makes a mistake. She does everything in an incredibly positive way and my son looks forward to visiting her office."

"Taking the first step to empower myself"
"Her approach is direct yet soothing, and educational without coming across condescending. Her demeanor is so kind and relaxing that I find myself speaking freely. 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."

"Now, when a stutter happens, I don't panic.
I know when I can just let it go versus when I need to apply a technique. I don't feel worried anymore."

"His repetition has decreased..."
“His repetition (stuttering) has decreased, speech rate has decreased, and he’s very comfortable talking to anyone. He’s also being aware of how he’s speaking. You are excellent with kids, patient and easy going. Just what he likes! When there is a correction needed, the child feels good about himself, which is wonderful”.

"Reinforcing therapy at home was key"
"Allison worked with my son Connor during his 3rd grade year. I was very vocal and interested in his progress during his time with her. She was extremely receptive to my willingness to work alongside her and kept that relationship with me throughout the year. Together, we saw some tremendous progress with Connor, and reinforcing the therapy at home was key."
