Speech Therapy for Adults
Legacy Speech Solutions offers speech therapy for adults that is client-centered, collaborative, and tailored to the individual's specific needs, personal goals, and conditions. Our goal for adult speech therapy is aimed at improving communication abilities, enhancing quality of life, and fostering independence in daily activities.
Each individual is thoroughly evaluated to understand their communication strengths and challenges. This may involve standardized tests, interviews, and observation. Our speech therapist also gathers information about the individual's medical history, any neurological conditions, speech or language disorders, and the impact these issues have on their daily life at home, work and in the community.
Based on the assessment, the speech therapist collaborates with the individual to set specific, measurable, achievable, functional, and time-bound goals. Progress is frequently reviewed and goals are adjusted as needed. Once goals are met, the speech therapist will work with the individual and their family on strategies for maintaining progress and preventing relapse.
Speech therapy may involve various interventions depending on the condition. Speech therapy interventions for adults include cognitive retraining, speech intelligibility training, voice training, retraining of comprehension and expression of speech and language skills, visual scanning and compensatory strategies for visual deficits, fluency therapy, swallowing therapy including compensatory strategies and diet modifications, and caregiver training on techniques and strategies to assist individuals in their home and in the community.

Speech Therapy for Children
Legacy Speech Solutions provides speech therapy for children that is personalized, collaborative, and designed to meet each child’s unique needs, individual goals, and specific conditions.
Each child receives a comprehensive speech evaluation to determine their communication strengths and challenges. This assessment may include standardized tests, parent interviews, and direct observation. Our speech therapist also collects information about the child’s medical history, developmental milestones, neurological conditions, speech or language disorders, and the effects of these issues on their home and school environments.
After the assessment, the speech therapist partners with the child and their family to establish clear, measurable, attainable, functional, and time-specific goals. Progress is monitored regularly, and goals are adjusted as necessary. Once goals are reached, the speech therapist works with the child and their family to develop strategies for maintaining progress and avoiding setbacks.
Speech therapy for children may include a variety of interventions depending on the condition. These interventions might involve articulation therapy, reading remediation, cognitive retraining, addressing cognitive deficits caused by ADHD, language therapy, voice therapy, fluency therapy, swallowing therapy, social communication therapy, and parent-caregiver training.
Cognitive Retraining Therapy for Adults & Children
WHAT IS COGNITIVE RETRAINING: Cognitive retraining is a therapeutic approach aimed at improving cognitive functions that may be impaired due to injury, illness, age-related decline, or neurodevelopment disorders such as ADHD. It involves various strategies and exercises designed to enhance skills such as memory, attention, problem-solving, executive functions, thought processing, and organizational skills. The goal of cognitive retraining is to help individuals regain lost or underdeveloped cognitive abilities and improve their overall mental functioning, enabling them to better manage daily tasks and improve their quality of life.
Common speech therapy techniques in cognitive retraining include:
Memory Exercises & Training: Activities that focus on enhancing short-term and long-term memory. Learning to use memory aids and compensatory techniques.
Attention Training: Exercises to improve concentration and the ability to focus on tasks in all different environments.
Problem-Solving Tasks: Activities designed to enhance critical thinking, reasoning, and decision-making skills.
Executive Functioning Support: Strategies to improve planning, organization, managing finances, and time management.
Rehabilitation of Specific Skills: Tailored exercises to address particular cognitive deficits.
