Our Services
At Bright Side Speech Therapy, we prioritize your child's growth in communication skills through engaging and supportive sessions. Our dedicated team focuses on fostering a positive atmosphere where children and teens can thrive. Come experience the joy of learning as we work together to enhance every child's speaking abilities.
SCREENING
Wondering if your concerns about your child’s speech are valid? Or maybe you just have a quick question about the evaluation or therapy process?
Call and ask for Annie! With one quick call, she can listen, share simple activities to try at home, and guide you toward the next steps.
EVALUATION
Fun is at the heart of everything we do, and evaluations are no exception! We believe a meaningful evaluation begins with trust and connection, creating a space where your child feels comfortable and celebrated for their unique strengths.
While formal testing can sometimes feel overwhelming, our approach is different. We weave in play, curiosity, and encouragement so that your child feels engaged and supported every step of the way. Just as important, we listen to the insights of parents, teachers, and caregivers,
because collaboration is the key to truly understanding your child as a whole.
THERAPY
At The Bright Side, we offer therapy in the following areas:
● Speech Sound Production
● Language
● Childhood Apraxia of Speech
● Early Intervention Skills
● Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)

Our approach is all about helping your child feel comfortable, confident, and capable, while being guided by evidence-based practices. You won’t hear the word “can’t,” because we believe your child CAN succeed. Each session is play-based, personalized, and fun, giving your child
the connection and support they need to make real progress.

“We had a wonderful experience working with Ms. Annie for my 10-year-old son’s articulation therapy. From the very first session, she made him feel comfortable and engaged, even when he was a little wiggly and full of energy. Her warm, fun-loving personality and creative approach to therapy turned each session into something my son genuinely looked forward to.
She was incredibly patient, consistently encouraging, and always found ways to keep him focused while making progress. We noticed clear improvements in his speech, and more importantly, he gained confidence in expressing himself. It’s clear she truly cares about her work and the kids she helps. We’re so grateful for everything she’s done for our son and would highly recommend her to any family seeking speech support!”
