Welcome to Start Bright
ABA and Speech Therapy
Start Bright is run by the same owners and management who previously operated Halpin and Associates Speech and Language Therapy. At Start Bright, we prioritize a play-based approach which fosters both learning and family integration, creating a natural setting where your child can thrive.
Why Early Intervention Is Important
Early intervention plays a critical role in helping children build the foundational communication, social, and behavioral skills they need for long-term success. When support begins early, children are able to make faster, more meaningful progress during the developmental stages when their brains are most ready to learn. Early services not only strengthen a child's skills but also empower families with strategies that make everyday routines more successful.
ABA Therapy
Our ABA therapy program focuses on improving communication, social skills, independence, and positive behaviors through evidence-based, individualized treatment. Each child receives a tailored plan created by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and delivered through structured, supportive sessions. We continually assess progress and adjust goals to ensure meaningful, lasting growth.
Speech and Language Therapy
Our speech therapy services support children in developing strong communication skills, including speech clarity, language understanding, expressive language, and social communication. Using evidence-based techniques and individualized treatment plans, our certified speech language pathologists help children build the necessary skills they need to communicate at home, school, and in the community.

Kerry
"My son has been attending Start Bright Speech for years! We love the staff and how attentive they are to his unique needs. They are collaborative not only with us, but his school team as well to make sure everyone is on the same page for his progress and goals.
They make him feel comfortable and have helped him communicate using an AAC, while giving us the tools we need at home to continue his success."

"Our son started here at almost 3 years old. He was very limited verbally, and now he's 4 1/2 and right on par with his peers!"
