1-on-1 In-Home Speech Therapy
Person-centered care in the comfort of your own home. We offer virtual and in-home speech and language therapy for kids, toddlers, and adults in Grand Rapids and surrounding areas. Available week nights - no waitlist!
How it Works
We would love to connect with you and your family first to ensure that Best Side Speech is the perfect fit! We will begin with an introductory meeting at no cost to determine if an evaluation is needed. These can be done in person or virtually and last about 30 minutes to an hour. Schedule your free consultation.
Free Consultation
We offer comprehensive speech and language evaluations to determine specific communication challenges. Evaluations typically last between 1-2 hours and an official report along with recommendations will be provided.
Evaluation
We will create an individualized treatment plan and person-centered goals that are specific to our client’s needs. We implement fun, confidence-building treatment using evidenced-based therapy techniques and strategies. Therapy sessions cost $100, last about 1 hour, and can take place at your home or online.
Speech Therapy
We specialize in providing professional in-home and teletherapy speech-language services. Patience, passion, and empathy are our core values, with a mission to empower individuals of all ages to communicate effectively and confidently through individualized treatment plans that are personal to you or your loved one’s needs.
Who We Are
At Best Side Speech, we make speech therapy fun by playing games, rewarding progress, and instilling confidence in all of our clients. We provide parents with some quick and easy strategies to work with their kid at home, which saves time, money, and frustration down the road. We can also assist you in designing a playroom, in-home environment, along with providing additional toys, games, and activities that will best suit your child’s needs during and long after therapy is over.
Our Unique Approach
Luke Shepherd
M.A., CCC-SLP
Hi! I’m Luke Shepherd, founder of Best Side Speech. I founded this private speech therapy practice because I love seeing the joy and confidence boost a child or adult gets when their speech improves.
I’ve worked in school, outpatient, and private practice settings providing articulation, expressive/receptive language, pragmatic language, AAC, cognitive communication, swallowing and stuttering therapy to both pediatric and adult clients.
I received two bachelor’s degrees in communication disorders and communication as well as my master’s degree in speech-language pathology from Central Michigan University. I am a certified member of the American Speech Language Hearing Association (ASHA).
