Choosing an ABA, speech, occupational or physical therapy provider for your child is a decision families make with their heart and with their homework. The words below were written by parents and grandparents of children who receive therapy at Hopeful Therapies – Neurodevelopmental Center for Children, and they were published by those families on Google, not on this website. We reproduce them here with their author, their city and the month they were posted so you can find and read the original at any time.
Some families wrote in English and some in Spanish. We publish each review in the language it was written in, because that is who we are: a bilingual family working for families across Brandon, Lakeland and Winter Haven.

This is an amazing place, my kid love this center, the team is kind, caring and professionals. My kid Nathan has made so much improvement in this couple years in his behavior problems and his communication have changed for better. He is growing stronger and I feel secure and confident that he has been with the amazing team Julia, Ashley and Hannah, Gilda. The management team is awesome as well and guide you tremendously with all your concerns. God bless you all!!!

Si pudiera darle 20 estrellas a este centro lo haría. El mejor lugar que encontré para mi hijo Samuel: en el poco tiempo que lleva ha progresado mucho y le encanta estar ahí, es su lugar preferido. Todos son muy profesionales, dedicados y preocupados por nuestros niños. El señor Julio es excelente como dueño de este centro, nos ha brindado una atención y apoyo increíble. Claudia, la terapista que atiende a mi niño, ha sido una bendición en nuestras vidas. En fin, todos son personas excepcionales en su profesión y como seres humanos. Si quiere ver cambios en su hijo y tener una atención y ayuda de calidad y dedicación, no dude en contactar este centro, lo recomiendo 100 por ciento.

Amazing place! My granddaughter didn’t talk and since she started with my favorite RBT, Emila, she is talking, playing and showing love. I love this center and the home service too. A plus that they are opening a center in Winter Haven! God bless the staff!!

What these families keep telling us
Read together, the same three things come up again and again: children who start talking, playing and connecting; therapists and RBTs who are remembered by name years later; and owners and managers who answer when a parent has a concern. That is exactly what we set out to build when the company opened, and in October we celebrate five years of doing it.
It is also why we keep the things families told us mattered most: no waiting list, all therapies under one roof so goals reinforce each other, extended hours Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to 7 PM, and a real person answering the phone during business hours instead of an answering machine.
