What is Speech Therapy?
Speech therapy is a specialized healthcare service that helps people of all ages improve their communication and swallowing abilities. It addresses a wide range of conditions — from speech sound disorders and language delays in children to stroke-related communication loss and swallowing difficulties in adults.
At Aviva Home Health Care Services, our licensed speech- language pathologists (SLPs) work with patients who struggle with speaking, understanding language, using their voice effectively, or swallowing safely. Through personalized therapy programs, we help patients regain confidence, improve communication and enhance their quality of life — all in the comfort of their own home.
"Communication is at the heart of human connection. Our speech therapists help patients rediscover their voice — whether it's a child learning to say their first words or an adult recovering speech after a stroke."
Why Choose Home Speech Therapy?
Traditional speech therapy often requires frequent clinic visits, which can be challenging — especially for children, elderly patients and those with mobility issues. Home-based speech therapy eliminates these barriers, offering a more comfortable, consistent and effective alternative.
Home speech therapy is particularly valuable for children, who learn best in familiar environments, and for adults recovering from strokes or neurological conditions, who may feel more relaxed and confident at home. Therapy in the home also allows family members to observe sessions and learn techniques to support progress between visits.
- No travel stress — therapy comes to you
- Comfortable, familiar environment for better learning
- Personalized one-on-one attention throughout the session
- Family members can observe and learn techniques
- Reduced risk of exposure to infections
- Flexible scheduling — including evenings and weekends
- More consistent attendance — no missed appointments
- Faster progress through regular, uninterrupted sessions

1. Speech Sound Disorders
Children and adults who have difficulty producing certain sounds, or who substitute, omit or distort sounds. Our therapists use structured articulation therapy to improve clarity and confidence.

Disruptions in the flow of speech, including repetitions, prolongations and blocks. Our therapists use proven fluency techniques to help patients speak more smoothly.
4. Voice Disorders
Hoarseness, vocal fatigue, pitch problems and other voice issues. We help patients recover healthy voice function through vocal exercises and techniques.

After a stroke, many patients lose the ability to understand or produce language. Our therapists provide intensive aphasia therapy to help patients regain communication skills.
6. Dysarthria
Weakness or paralysis of the muscles used for speech — often caused by stroke, Parkinson's disease or other neurological conditions. Therapy focuses on improving speech clarity and strength.
7. Dysphagia (Swallowing Disorders)
Difficulty swallowing food, liquids or saliva. This can be dangerous if left untreated. Our therapists provide safe swallowing techniques and exercises.
8. Autism Spectrum Disorder
Children on the autism spectrum often have communication challenges. Our therapists design individualized programs to build communication and social skills.
9. Cognitive-Communication Disorders
Difficulty with attention, memory, problem-solving and social communication — often after brain injury or dementia. We help patients regain functional communication.
10. Cleft Palate & Resonance Disorders
Speech issues related to cleft palate or other structural conditions. Therapy focuses on improving resonance and articulation.
