She was able to get my son from barely mimicking to being able to say multiple complete sentences in a row! Lauren is engaging, encouraging, patient, professional, and so delightful to work with.

We highly recommend CST, but specifically Lauren!

We're so grateful for CPTWC!…read more Our daughter has been through physical therapy, occupational therapy, and feeding therapy--and we cannot say enough good things about this place. Every therapist (Natalie, Lexie and Kirsten) we've worked with has been kind, professional, and incredibly skilled at meeting kids where they are while gently encouraging them forward. The team not only helped my daughter meet all her milestones, they also empowered us as parents to understand her needs and support her at home. We especially appreciated how collaborative they were across disciplines--she was treated as a whole child, not just a checklist of goals. CPTWC has truly been a part of our village. We've referred several friends here (and they've all had great experiences too). If you're looking for a warm, expert, and family-centered approach to pediatric therapy, CPTWC is it.

Lino started Speech Therapy through Early Intervention in January 2025. At that time, he was using…read moresingle words, able to name pictures here and there, but couldn't even say "help" when I could see he was asking for it in his own way. His patience was short, which made communication tough. He also had delays with motor skills. He could hold utensils and knew they were for eating--he would bring them to his mouth--but he wasn't able to hold them strongly or in the correct way. After months of practice and support, he's now using utensils just fine, and I'm so proud of how far he's come. He began receiving Speech Therapy-Grace, Occupational Therapy-Madelyn, and Developmental Therapy-Shirley once a week. After 8 months of consistent therapy, the progress has been incredible. Lino is now able to make sentences, loves to sing, and can clearly say what he wants. His play skills have also grown--he enjoys playing with others and now involves people around him, which has been wonderful to see. We are especially grateful to his therapist, who has shown how much they truly care about Lino. The patience, dedication, and encouragement they've given him (and us as parents) mean so much. They don't just teach--they celebrate every small win with us, and that has made all the difference. Looking back, it's amazing to see how much progress he has made, and we are deeply thankful for the team who has supported him every step of the way.

As a very experienced user of PTN's various therapy services, I am honored to be writing their…read morefirst review! I love PTN for the following reasons: -- New client logistics: I found it very difficult to find a pediatric speech or physicial therapist in Chicago who would bill my medical insurance rather than require up-front payment out of pocket. PTN was very helpful and accommodating while I petitioned my insurance company get them to cover services (which they eventually agreed to do). They bill my insurance first, then charge me for the balance AFTER they receive information from my insurance company regarding my patient responsibility. -- Child evaluation: I have had Speech, PT, and OT evaluations on my children at various times over the past 6 months. I have been very impressed with the quality of the evaluation sessions, the advice on what we can do at home, and the written reports we have received after the fact. In some cases therapy was not recommended, which I appreciate. -- Home-based treatment: Having done office-based PT for one of my children previously, I was skeptical about the home-based model at first. Having experienced it now for the last 6 months, I wouldn't do it any other way. We have higher quality sessions since the kids are comfortable in our home and we learn to incorporate things we have in the house into therapy so that we can continue the work even when it is not "therapy time." It is also very convenient not having to pack up and drive my child across town for appointments (I am a working Mom). -- Quality of services: We have had PT and Speech Therapy for our kids through PTN and had fantastic results working with Triston and Tom. I especially liked the way that they could discuss my children as a team and make sure that they were coordinating care and sharing information to ensure that everyone was seeing the same thing and working towards the same goal. We also had an evaluation for OT and found that to be satisfactory as well. It is worth noting that I have also been through the Chicago Early Intervention process. I strongly preferred working with PTN. I can't say enough good things about the experience that I have had.

This therapist-owned and operated company has incredible professionals working for them.

They are simply the best! My child cannot wait for them to arrive in the morning. As a bonus, they are super helpful in "working behind the scenes" to make your interactions with your EI coordinator, easier and smoother. I cannot recommend PTN highly enough!

When I signed my autistic child up i was told that i would be paying monthly , a few months later they switched the rules & changed it to weekly which was a huge inconvenience for me because I don't get paid weekly, this caused me to fall behind in payments, the lady Jenna in the financial department is so unprofessional she calls & threatens to pause my son services & has kept him out of therapy for days at a time. I've spoken with the director & told her how unprofessional Jenna is & how rude she is. Today I received a call that they are dropping my son from the program because me & Jenna got into an argument once again because she called threatening to pause my son services. As far as the school itself I haven't seen much progress with my son, I've asked numerous times to speak with his other therapists to see what's going on , the only person that cared really was his BCBA Amanda, she's the only one who follows up with me & shows she really care about the kiddos. Would not recommend they only care about the money !!!

Not only did Abby help my daughter tremendously with her speech, she got to know her and worked with her in the exact way that was motivating and fun. Abby really helped me understand what our daughter's challenges were and taught me how we could work with her so it felt fun and not like work. I have no doubt that Abby will have an incredibly long and successful career helping children and calming their parents. I found searching for a speech therapist completely overwhelming, and a little scary, so I was thrilled when I found the owner, Tanya, and Therapy Buddies and was matched with Abby. By posting this review, I hope that I can help someone else make their search a little bit easier.

They accept and bill insurance companies and are always easy to work with in every aspect. Very responsive to emails and questions which is so important especially when you as the parent might not know what might be going on or who to turn to with questions. I always appreciate that any request I have or concern to address, they help find a solution, have an idea or give a suggestion. They truly care about kids and try to help in any way they can.
