Speech Therapy Brampton

Communication is an essential part of everyday living. Adequate communication skills are an important aspect of home, community, school and workplace functioning. Meeting and keeping friends requires knowledge of important social communication skills. It is through one’s communication that we get to know about a person’s wants and needs, opinion, ideas, and the essence of who they are.

The Speech Therapy Centres of Canada is a team of dedicated speech-language pathologists (S-LPs or speech therapists) who provide assessments and therapy services for a large variety of communication disorders. Some of the more typical communication difficulties we see in pre-school children include speech difficulties such as difficulty pronouncing sounds, and language delay/disorders including late talkers. Other areas commonly addressed include stuttering, communication disorders associated with autism spectrum disorder and drooling and swallowing difficulties.

In school-aged children, language and speech sound disorders, stuttering, social communication issues, voice issues and the communication deficits we see with learning difficulties and autism spectrum disorder, are commonly addressed at the Speech Therapy Centres of Canada.

In adults, aphasia therapy as a result of a stroke, and voice issues associated with vocal strain and other causes are among the most common concerns addressed by our team of speech-language pathologists. The communication issues observed with Parkinson’s Disease, ALS, and Dementia such as Alzheimers are also addressed. Another area that is part of speech language pathology scope of practice is working on accent modification. This includes assisting people with being easily understood but at the same time retaining the essence of their own culture.
