Owner, Speech-Language Pathologist
Hi, I’m Bianca De Leon! I’m thrilled to welcome you to South Texas Talking Sprouts. With over 10 years of experience as a Bilingual-certified Speech-Language Pathologist, I’m deeply passionate about empowering children and their families to communicate effectively and confidently. As someone who values the individuality of each child, I believe that therapy should be as unique as the child, guided by their strengths and interests.
At South Texas Talking Sprouts, our mission is to create a supportive and engaging environment where all forms of communication are celebrated. We embrace a child-centered approach, prioritizing connection and creativity over compliance, making therapy not only effective but also joyful. Watching a child discover their voice and share their thoughts with the world is the greatest reward of this work. I’m here to support your family every step of the way on this journey to unlocking your child’s full communication potential.
