Speech therapists

Speech therapists, also known as speech-language pathologists, are healthcare professionals who assess and treat communication and swallowing disorders. They work with people of all ages who may struggle with speaking clearly, understanding language, or using their voice effectively. Therapists develop personalized treatment plans to improve speech, language skills, and swallowing abilities. Common conditions they address include stuttering, language delays in children, and speech issues following a stroke. By providing therapy and strategies, speech therapists help individuals enhance their communication skills and overall quality of life.
