Cognitive problems include difficulties with brain based skills such as: attention, memory, orientation, organization, and problem-solving.

We use language to communicate both by speaking and by writing, skills that are supported by different regions of the brain. How language itself is stored in the brain is not clearly understood. What is understood is that a vast number of neural circuits are involved with language storage and retrieval. If these neural networks are disrupted by trauma or disease, adults may experience Speech and Language difficulties such as:

• difficulty saying intended speech sounds or difficulty putting sounds together into words (apraxia of speech)
• “slurring” speech sounds (dysarthria)
• difficulty understanding what others are saying or difficulty using words and sentences to express what one wants to say (aphasia)

When providing cognitive therapy, we work with the client and their family to improve cognitive skills AND to develop compensatory strategies that support improved function at home, school, and work.
​
If you or a family member are experiencing difficulties in speaking, writing, or understanding what others are saying, we would love to be of help. New England Communication Therapies offers skilled and compassionate rehabilitation therapy services to address Speech & Language needs. Therapy is individualized and goals are developed collaboratively, targeting skills that are meaningful to clients and families, and that increase client independence and life participation.

A language is not just words. It’s a culture, a tradition, a unification of a community, a whole history that creates what a community is. It’s all embodied in a language.
