Who is Speech Therapy for?

Most people assume speech therapy only deals with the production of sounds. While this is a large part of it, it isn’t the only kind of treatment included in speech therapy. Speech Therapy is designed to treat communication dysfunctions along with swallowing disorders.

Speech Therapy is led by SLPs, also known as speech therapists, who work to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders in both children and adults.
