When a stroke survivor finds difficulty in speaking or understanding language after a stroke, they can benefit from speech therapy.

Speech
Therapy

Our weekly speech programs are designed to provide support for individuals navigating the challenges of stroke-induced communication disorders, such as aphasia and apraxia.
