Think speech therapy is limited to helping a preschooler with delayed language or pronunciation problems? Dana Johnson, co-founder of Speech Therapy Unlimited in Sugar Land says, “Language disorders are a large part of what we do. And the spectrum is wide…that is why at Speech Therapy Unlimited we have therapists in many different areas of expertise and trained to work with clients of all ages. We aim to provide top-notch, quality therapy no matter the patient’s situation!”
Jason Johnson, Dana’s husband and co-founder of Speech Therapy Unlimited says, “One of the most common language disorders is expressive disorder. Here, individuals find it difficult to put words together. It may be caused by damage to the brain–a stroke, traumatic head injury or seizure–but sometimes there is no damage, and the cause is unknown. We see it a lot in kids with autism…and early intervention is the key to help these children communicate!”
“Our most diverse patients,” adds Jason, “are those with aphasia. The symptoms range from having difficulty remembering words, to an inability to speak spontaneously, to being completely unable to speak, read or write. Aphasia has many causes–head injury or stroke, brain tumor, infection, dementia, or a learning disability called dysnomia. Because the range and symptoms of aphasia are incredibly varied, it is crucial to have a large, diverse team of therapists on staff. We’ll spend the time looking for the right area––sports teams, family members, favorite hobbies––to make a personal connection. Then we’ll use every tool at our disposal from conversations, drills and flashcards, to apps and technology-driven solutions to get results!”
Can you imagine being unable to tell the world what you want? The inability to communicate is incredibly frustrating…so you don’t want any delay in getting speech therapy. Dana says, “Call us for your assessment and we’ll get you started right away. Jason and I hand-picked every one of our therapists, and I’m confident we will find the perfect client/therapist match for you or your loved one. We believe you shouldn’t have to wait to get the help you need!”
