Review for Nature's Edge Therapy Center, Inc., Rice Lake, WI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

When our daughter was 4 she had unintelligible speech. At 3 she had just been diagnosed with PDD-NOS, an Autism spectrum disorder. All we knew was that we wanted to get her as much help as possible. However, living in a rural area, that wasn't easy to do. We were told about Nature's Edge and as soon as we talked to Becky for the first time we knew we had found someone who could help. When we visited Nature's Edge it was beautiful! For our daughter, it was a comfortable in-home setting where she could practice speech and language, paired with the challenge of outdoor activities and experiences with the animals that were truly therapeutic. There were real social experiences that you just can't find in a clinical setting. It was really refreshing! We've been going to Nature's Edge for 3 years and our daughter has made great strides and is going into second grade with her peers! We know it is thanks to the hard work, creativity and expertise of Becky and the staff at Nature's Edge!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Watching our daughter grow and change in ways that allow her to communicate more effectively with the people around her.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Have a location closer to my home so we could go more often and participate in all the wonderful activities and events they sponsor throughout the year!
