This therapy is performed by a licensed provider who will repeatedly work with you to help improve your speech abilities. During your treatment sessions, the provider will lead you in exercises to help train the muscles, breathe properly, and teach you how to use your voice better.

How Speech Therapy Works

Speech therapy is a highly customized treatment in which a trained provider works closely with you to improve specific aspects of speech you may be struggling with.

You will meet with the provider every week to improve your speech. At your first appointment, your provider will discuss the difficulties you’ve been experiencing and will then develop a treatment plan to address these concerns.

At each subsequent meeting, your provider will guide you through exercises and training to help you improve more and more. This treatment is ideal for patients with any degree of speech difficulty, no matter how minor or severe.
