Speech Therapy

Finding the words. Sharing the meal.

Speech-language pathology covers more than speech. Our SLPs treat communication difficulties after stroke or brain injury, voice changes, cognitive-communication issues, and swallowing disorders that can make eating frightening.

What we treat

Speech production and articulation after neurological injury
Aphasia and language rehabilitation following stroke
Cognitive-communication therapy for memory, attention, and reasoning
Swallowing (dysphagia) evaluation and treatment
Voice therapy for hoarseness, projection, and breath support
AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) training
LSVT LOUD® for Parkinson's patients (where appropriate)
Caregiver and family training for safe mealtimes and communication strategies
