Voice Therapy

Our goal is to help you speak clearly, comfortably, and with confidence again.

If your voice feels weak, strained, hoarse, or tired, we can help.

​

We offer evidence-based therapy for:

​

  • Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD)

​​

  • Vocal fatigue and chronic strain

​​

  • Loss of volume or clarity

​​

  • LSVT LOUD® for Parkinson’s disease and other conditions

Swallowing Difficulties (Dysphagia)

Swallowing changes can impact safety, nutrition, and quality of life.

We assess and support adults with:

​

  • Frequent coughing or choking when eating or drinking

​

  • A sensation of food "sticking"

​

  • Changes after stroke, injury, or progressive conditions

​

  • Mild to moderate swallowing concerns needing monitoring

​​

We’ll work closely with you—and your care team if needed—to ensure your swallowing is safe and comfortable.
