-
Enhances quality of life: Being able to express your thoughts, wants, and needs promotes independence and emotional well-being.
-
Supports cognitive-linguistic function: Therapy can strengthen memory, problem-solving, attention, and other thinking skills impacted by stroke, brain injury, or neurological conditions.
