Speech Therapy

Speech Therapy at Cook Hospital is grounded in a participation-based model of care, helping individuals strengthen communication, cognitive, voice, and swallowing abilities in the real-life settings that matter most—home, work, community, and social life.

Therapy begins with a comprehensive evaluation focused on understanding your personal goals and daily routines. A tailored plan of care is then developed to promote independence, safety, and engagement in meaningful activities. Whether you’re recovering from stroke, managing a progressive condition, or adapting to changes in memory or communication, our focus is on helping you do what’s important to you.

Treatment may include strategies for improving speech clarity, memory and attention, safe swallowing, or voice strength. We also support communication partner training, use of adaptive tools when needed, and education to empower you and your family to carry therapy strategies into everyday life.
