Strengthening the cognitive foundations of communication: attention, memory, reasoning, and executive function.
Cognitive-communication therapy addresses the thinking skills which underlie effective communication. When cognitive abilities like attention, memory, organization, and problem-solving are affected, communication suffers—even when the language itself is intact.
Focusing, sustaining attention, and filtering distractions
Short-term, working memory, and recall strategies
Planning, organizing, initiating, and self-monitoring
Reasoning, judgment, and decision-making
Concussions and more severe brain injuries often affect cognitive-communication skills. Therapy helps rebuild these connections.
Right hemisphere strokes in particular can affect attention, reasoning, and social communication even when language seems preserved.
Therapy focuses on compensatory strategies to maintain communication and independence as long as possible.
Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and other conditions can affect cognitive-communication abilities.
We combine restorative exercises to rebuild cognitive skills with compensatory strategies for daily life. Our therapy is functional and personally relevant—we work on real-life situations that matter to you.
