Personalized neurological speech therapy

Our skilled team of speech-language pathologists cares for patients with speech, language, cognitive or swallowing changes associated with neurological conditions. We start by assessing your individual needs and goals, then tailor treatments accordingly. Our speech therapy objectives include enhancing your functional abilities at home and in your community, supporting you in successfully returning to work, and improving your quality of life. We are embedded in several neurological specialty clinics, allowing us to work closely with your other providers to ensure comprehensive, integrated care.

Speech concerns we treat

We have speech therapy expertise in a range of disorders, including:

  • Aphasia (difficulty with expressing or understanding language)
  • Attention, memory, problem-solving and executive dysfunction
  • Aural rehabilitation (improving communication for those with hearing loss)
  • Brain injury (including concussions and other traumatic brain injuries)
  • Dysarthria (difficulty speaking due to weak speech muscles)
  • Motor speech disorders, including apraxia (inability to perform tasks or m­ovements despite comprehension and willingness) and dysfluency (disruptions in speech flow, such as stuttering)
  • Social (pragmatic) communication disorder (when brain injury impacts a person's abilities to use language and other methods to communicate)
  • Functional changes related to neurological disease
  • Communication disorders caused by Parkinson's disease

Our providers are skilled in working with people who use low- and high-tech augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) methods, such as speech-generating devices and communication apps. They're also certified in the SPEAK OUT! Therapy Program for people with Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders.

Adults with voice and swallowing problems related to ear, nose and throat disorders can receive expert care from our voice and swallowing specialists.
