Fluens Children's Therapy

Fluens Children's Therapy We provide speech and occupational therapy for kids 18 months-18 years in Tacoma, WA and Columbia, TN

TN location: Fluens Children's Therapy of Tennessee

At Fluens Children’s Therapy, we believe that as children are able to communicate and interact with others better, their ideas will flow more easily and enable them to have stronger, more meaningful relationships with their family, friends, and members of the community. Together we can create a participative plan of action to accomplish these goals.

Worried about your child’s development and not sure whether to “wait and see”? Read our latest blog, Should You “Wait and See” on Developmental Milestones?, to learn when it may be time to get an evaluation from a pediatric therapist.

As a parent, it’s normal to feel concerned when you suspect your child is not reaching their age-appropriate developmental milestones. But every child develops at their own pace, which is why so many professionals encourage families to “wait and see.” And in many cases, children do catch up wi...

✨ New Year, New Goals — and Stronger Communication Skills! ✨

As we step into the New Year, many of us set resolutions to build healthier habits and stay consistent. In pediatric speech-language therapy, that same idea applies — real progress happens when skills practiced in therapy carry over into everyday life.

🎯 Therapy sessions are where skills are taught.
🏡 Home, school, and play are where skills are strengthened.

Whether it’s using new sounds, expanding sentences, following directions, or improving social communication, consistent practice outside the therapy room helps children turn goals into lifelong skills. Small, daily moments — reading together, mealtime conversations, playtime, or routines — make a big impact.

This year, let’s resolve to:
✔️ Practice skills beyond therapy
✔️ Celebrate small wins
✔️ Stay patient and consistent
✔️ Work together as a team

Every effort counts, and carryover is the key to lasting progress. Here’s to a year of growth, confidence, and clearer communication! 💬✨
