Why Speech Therapy?

Speech is a key building block in communication. Having the appropriate speech and communication skills are key to forming and maintaining healthy relationships, engaging in lifelong learning, and providing the language skills to deal with everyday scenarios.  

At The Oxford Center, our speech therapists provide techniques and strategies for children and adults to communicate more effectively. Speech therapy allows patients to target and improve on areas of weakness in fluency, clarity and comprehension, sound production, early language skills, and much more 

The Oxford Center offers a personalized and caring speech therapy program that is tailored to your specific needs and concerns. Our speech therapists would love to help you on your way to communicating clearly, effectively, and comprehensively.

Encouraging and Adaptable

Speech therapists provide education to families and caregivers to ensure optimal success. Our flexible approach allows our therapists to adjust the approach to meet various learning styles and evolve with you as you progress.


What is Speech Therapy? 

A speech-language pathologist (SLP), also known as a speech therapist, works to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorder in children and adults. SLPs treat many types of communication and swallowing problems. These problems can include speech sounds, expressive and receptive language, social communication, voice, fluency, and feeding and swallowing disorders. SLPs can treat a wide variety of people and disorders.

Speech therapists at The Oxford Center work with their patients to create a person-centered approach to target areas of concern and work with them towards improving their ability to effectively communicate their wants/needs, as well as swallowing abilities. 


What Do Sessions Look Like?

Here at The Oxford Center, we take a synergistic approach to maximize outcomes. Our therapy models customize programs based on our patient’s level, individual situation, and needs. We work closely with our multidisciplinary team members to help our patients reach their goals.

When beginning speech therapy, patients will be evaluated by one of our licensed and certified speech therapists to assess the patient’s level, individual needs, goals, and situation. Following the evaluation period, the speech therapist will cultivate a personalized plan to help our patients achieve their goals.

Our speech therapist will work with our patients and their personalized plans to develop a therapy schedule based off their needs, as well as availability. The length and duration of each patient’s speech sessions may vary depending on their personalized plan. Check with your insurance company, as this service may be covered by insurance.
