Welcome!
Providing in-home speech therapy services for children on the northside of Indianapolis and surrounding areas.
About Me
I’m Grace Rivelli, a wife, mother, and pediatric speech therapist! I have seven years of experience working with children with a variety of communication needs in early intervention, private practice, and the schools. I studied at Indiana University for my Bachelor’s degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences, and the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill for my Master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology. My Catholic faith has a significant influence on my work as a speech therapist, and I care deeply for the children and families who I have the privilege to work with. I am particularly passionate about including pre-reading and reading skills in my sessions to help address the literacy crisis in our country. I love providing individualized, flexible therapy with a focus on parent/caregiver coaching!

From the Heart Values
Communication as a Human Right: Every child’s voice is worth fighting for.
Assuming Competence: I believe that every child is capable of communicating given time and resources.
Flexible Thinking and Problem Solving: Communication is complex and therapy is not “one size fits all.”
Fun: Children learn best when they are having fun! Play is at the heart of every session, especially with younger children.
Family Participation: My time during sessions is limited, so I work hard to make sure families understand and are able to implement strategies when I’m not there.
