At Achieve Now Educational Services, our mission has always been simple. Create environments where children feel safe, supported, capable, and celebrated for who they are. Every year we continue to grow, and every step we take is guided by the needs of our students and families.
Today, I am excited to share a partnership that aligns perfectly with that vision.
We are officially partnering with Play Together Speech Therapy, owned by Speech-Language Pathologist Ms. Bethany Spencer, to expand the support we provide to our students and families.
Why This Partnership Matters
When I first connected with Bethany, I immediately saw how closely our values matched. She believes that children learn best when they are joyful, engaged, and truly seen. Her approach is rooted in the understanding that communication is not just a skill. It is a bridge to connection, confidence, and independence.
Play Together Speech Therapy provides community-based, play-centered services throughout Valrico, Brandon, Riverview, Lithia, and surrounding areas. Bethany has a deep passion for neurodiversity affirming care and specializes in supporting autistic children and their families.
Her expertise includes:
Autistic language development
Gestalt Language Processing
Augmentative and Alternative Communication
General language disorders
Stuttering
Speech sound disorders
Every session is centered on play because play is how children explore, communicate, and make sense of the world. It is a powerful tool for learning and connection, and Bethany uses it with intention and heart.
A Shared Commitment to Families
One of the things that stood out the most is how much Bethany values family partnership. She works closely with parents to make communication practice meaningful in daily life, not just during therapy sessions. This approach fits beautifully within our own mission at Achieve Now.
Together, we are working to create an environment where every child has the tools, encouragement, and support they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
What This Means for Our Community
This partnership opens up new opportunities for students who may benefit from speech or language services. It gives families direct access to a trusted and highly skilled professional who understands the diverse ways children communicate.
Whether your child needs support with speech sounds, stuttering, language development, or AAC, Bethany brings a level of expertise and compassion that we are proud to offer through this collaboration.
Looking Ahead
We are committed to growing in ways that truly serve our students. Partnering with Play Together Speech Therapy is an important step in that journey. We believe this collaboration will strengthen the foundation we are building and create even more pathways for our children to succeed.
If you would like more information about speech and language services or how this partnership may support your child, please feel free to reach out. We are always here to help.
Thank you for trusting us, growing with us, and believing in the vision of Achieve Now Educational Services.
