Frequently Asked Questions

You should consult a speech pathologist if you or your child experience speech delays, difficulty pronouncing words, stuttering, voice disorders, or trouble swallowing. Early intervention is key, especially for children with language delays or adults recovering from strokes.

Look for a licensed and certified speech-language pathologist (SLP) with experience in your specific condition. Consider their specializations, patient reviews, and treatment methods. If hiring for a child, check if they have experience with pediatric speech therapy.

The duration varies based on age, severity of the condition, and treatment consistency. Some cases, like mild speech delays, may improve in a few months, while others, such as neurological disorders, may require ongoing therapy.

Yes, speech therapy isn’t just for children. Adults may need speech therapy for stroke recovery, voice disorders, accent reduction, cognitive-communication issues, or speech impairments due to neurological conditions. Therapy helps regain clarity, confidence, and proper communication skills.

Sessions typically involve assessments, targeted exercises, and practice activities to improve speech, language, or swallowing abilities. For children, therapy may include interactive games and storytelling, while adults may focus on breathing techniques, articulation exercises, and conversation skills.
