Testimonials

“At a point, I felt like my child had drifted away from the world. Over the course of time he spent here I saw him come back and welcome all sorts of experiences and opportunities. Every from going to the zoo to attending kindergarten. I couldn’t imagine doing any of that before their support.”

“Accelerate, I believe, changed the course of David’s perception of himself and the world around him, and taught our entire family how to understand some of David’s world. As I watch him play, splashing, sharing and squealing with joy, I can’t help but wonder...where would we be without Accelerate? ”

“These kids learn how to interact, socialize and PLAY with other kids while working on their delays and challenges. The gift of having my Emme actually LOOK me in the eyes, hug me, smile at me, tell me she loves me? Priceless!!”

“The therapy provided gave our son confidence and we saw almost immediate changes in his ability to express himself. This ultimately lead to more fun for the whole family.”

“Charlee is able to talk about her fears and worries with me now. She even has implemented a thought process. For example, on her first day of school she wore a pretty dress and while we were walking into school she stopped and said, “Huh, I wore a pretty dress. Paul said I had to talk in order to wear a pretty dress.” She also tells me, “Look, I don’t lick my face anymore!” And she doesn’t. The sessions have made her more aware and better equipped to deal with situations that worry her. She is also so much better at her communication with us! She is getting better at opening up with her peers too.”

“Our son is now much better at following social prompts when conversing. His vocabulary has increased and become more colorful. ”

“Their name really should be ‘Lightspeed’ as they have applied their philosophies, experience and professionalism in an unbelievably effective way. To make this all work our whole family had to come together to make sure Holden was supported, but it never occurred to us that Accelerate would be this effective. They have shown that their existence is about doing what they love and holistically demonstrating their passion for the enhancement of our child. ”

“If I had accepted that he had autism and needed to follow picture schedules for his whole life and always tried to accommodate his comfort level - I am afraid I would have limited him and we wouldn’t be where we are. He had many screaming fits in public and a lot of judgement was passed on us, but we pushed past that and here we are- still growing and learning. It’s not a life-sentence. ”

“Roman is able to do so many things that he didn’t do when he first began at Accelerate. He now loves to interact with other kids, sits and eats at the table, tries new foods, goes to Sunday School at church, is potty trained and follows direction! We have seen great success!”

“She’s using more words. Her responses are more than yes or no replies. She seems more confident when playing with other kids.”

“My son is showing more interest in interacting with his peers! Before Accelerate, he would stay close to adults vs his peers.

I was also grateful for the guidance and advice I received as the parent. I have a better idea of what my son needs from me to help push him to do his best.”

“As a mom, I knew from a very early age that my Dawson was not a “typical” baby. Accelerate assessed him, answered my questions and calmed my fears. A day before Dawson’s first birthday he started working at Accelerate on a daily basis. Each and every day I was given a verbal report of what they were working on, strengths and continued areas of need. No negativity....ALL HOPE!! At the end of 4 short weeks, my son made eye contact with me, reached out for me when I came to pick him up, was aware and attentive to his environment, was starting to initiate the sounds and actions of those around him and most importantly, he was smiling!! The change was significant and everyone who knew Dawson noticed it! Dawson had a personality! He was engaged, he was excited, he was smiling! Accelerate far exceeded my expectations! ”

“Amazing, absolutely amazing! Accelerate knows exactly what the kids need.”

“Kellen talks to me. I used to have to guess what he was trying to communicate or use pictures pr other means of communicating. He has progressed tremendously and uses many full sentences, speaks spontaneously and can answer simple questions. It is so nice that he can communicate his wants and needs. Today he was able to tell me a few things about his first day of kindergarten... it brings me to tears!

He also learned the value of making friends. Instead of being off in his own he will frequently try to engage with others/peers especially if they are being silly or funny. He participates in church and loves his horse therapy. It is like they were able to “unlock” Kellen.”

“Guys...I need to brag on both Judah and Accelerated therapy and all the people that have continued to work with him and encourage him.
I have now know this little boy for 2 years. When I first met him, he was non verbal. He was not talking at 3 years old. He is Austistic. I remembering at one point thinking...he will talk one day. It will just take time. But I had to believe in that.
Fast forward to a God ordained meeting where I learned about Accelerate Therapy. We got him in the program during the summer of 2020. He soared and was speaking words by the end of the summer.
He was in Accelerate from June of 2020 to March of 2021. Because of finances we had to stop but stayed in contact with them. Then some incredible people donated money to Judah to get back into therapy and continue for a few more months.
Now fast forward to now...this is the little boy we have. A soon to be 5 year old little boy that can now speak and you can understand him AND using his imagination!
To say I am grateful for this therapy and the people who have constantly worked with him
...us an understatement. I can’t wait to watch him soar even more!”
