Hi! My name is Angela Gillis Williams and I am a licensed and certified speech language pathologist serving the Michiana area. I am the sole owner and operator of Grow and Bloom Speech Therapy, LLC. I have lived in the South Bend/Granger area my entire life. I graduated from John Adams High School. I went to Saint Mary's College for undergrad to obtain my Bachelor's in Communicative Disorders (May 2012). I also played softball there. After graduation, I worked to gain experience as both an ABA Therapist and a Speech Language Pathologist Assistant. In 2015, I started graduate school in Speech Language Pathology and graduated in May 2017. I have mostly worked as an SLP in the school setting servicing students in preschool, elementary, and middle school. I have also worked part time in the hospital setting on both acute and inpatient rehab floors.

​

Family time is what I value most. I am the oldest of 7 children (5 girls, 2 boys). One of my sister's has a dual-diagnosis of Down syndrome and Autism. She is one of the main reasons why I chose to go in to such a wonderful field. I married my husband , Zac Williams, in July 2019. He is a chiropractor in town. We have 3 beautiful children, Dylan (15), Layla (4), and Mac (1). Dylan is now a freshman in high school. He loves to play sports, including both baseball and football. Layla stays busy riding her bike, playing with her toys, dancing, t-ball, and so much more. Mac is a happy baby and loves being around his older brother and sister.
