Adult Speech, Language and Cognitive Evaluation and Treatment
Our team members work with both Adults and Children (if you are seeking information about pediatric speech therapy, click here).
 

sPEECH AND LANGUAGE THERAPY FOR ADULTS

Our experienced, licensed speech-language pathologists provide expert evaluation and treatment in these areas:
  • Cognitive disorders: difficulty with attention, memory, processing, organization and other thinking skills. Cognitive challenges can occur with concussion, brain tumor, stroke, other neurological diagnoses, or side effects of chemotherapy.
  • Dysarthria: speech changes following a neurological event impacting clarity of speech.
  • Aphasia: challenges with speaking, listening, reading, and writing that occur after a neurological event such as stroke or brain injury. In addition to individual therapy, We offer an Aphasia Conversation Group to strengthen functional communication skills.
  • Swallowing disorders: difficulty safely tolerating food or liquids often associated with neurological disorders such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or as a side effect of head/neck cancer. We offer a clinical swallow evaluation as well as Modified Barium Swallow study.
  • Voice disorders: including vocal hoarseness, chronic cough, muscle tension dysphonia, vocal cord paralysis or dysfunction, vocal fatigue, and paradoxical vocal fold motion (PVFM).
  • Head/neck cancer: speech, voice, and swallowing impairments that can occur due to head/neck cancer and side effects of cancer treatment (surgery, chemotherapy or radiation).
