Rehabilitative speech and voice therapy supports adults experiencing changes in communication or vocal function due to illness, injury, or neurological conditions. Services may address speech clarity, word-finding and language difficulties, fluency (stuttering), and voice concerns such as hoarseness, strain, fatigue, or changes in pitch and volume. Therapy is individualized and functional, with a focus on improving confidence and effective communication in everyday life, work, and social settings.

Rehabilitative swallowing therapy focuses on the treatment of dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing. Adults may experience swallowing challenges related to stroke, neurological conditions, medical illness, head and neck cancer, or age-related changes. Therapy may include exercises to improve swallowing strength and coordination, education on safe eating and drinking strategies, and individualized recommendations to promote comfort, safety, and quality of life.
-
Cognitive-communication therapy helps adults strengthen thinking and communication skills following stroke, traumatic brain injury, concussion, or in the presence of neurological conditions. Therapy is goal-oriented and practical, focusing on improving independence, daily functioning, and success at home, work, and in the community.
Our skilled speech-language pathologists can help you navigate through the wide array of conditions that can impact your ability to speak or swallow safely and effectively.
Whether it be the result of traumatic brain injury, stroke, brain tumor, dementia, epilepsy, surgical treatments, medications, radiation treatments, or neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, our therapists will develop personalized exercises and techniques to improve your quality of life.
