Services
The services at Euphonic are tailored to meet the needs
of individual clients. Private and group sessions in
office or home settings are available. Our key areas
of work include:
Language disorders:
These delays and disorders range from simple sound substitutions
to the inability to understand or use language for communication.
They may involve one or more of the components of language
including phonological, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic
systems. Language disorders may be congenital (e.g.
due to developmental delay, cerebral palsy) or acquired
(e.g.stroke, trauma, multiple sclerosis).
Speech disorders:
These are generally categorized into disorders of speech
production: functional articulation disorders, apraxia,
dysarthria, and disorders of flow/rhythm of speech (stuttering
and cluttering).
Cognitive-communication disorders:
These disorders commonly occur due to traumatic brain
injury, dementia or stroke. Areas affected generally
include attention, memory, thought organization, insight,
problem solving, and pragmatics.
Voice disorders: Voice disorders involve
abnormalities in the quality, pitch, resonance, or loudness
of sound. Common voice disorders include vocal nodules,
polyps, vocal cord paralysis, spasmodic dysphonia, puberty-related
changes, cleft palate, and laryngectomy.
Dysphagia: Dysphagia refers to the
inability to swallow safely and/or efficiently . Dysphagia
most commonly results from brain injury, congenital

Accent modification: Accent modification
is a systematic method for changing speech patterns,
including pronunciation, voice production, intonation,

seeking to improve their professional image or to increase
personal opportunities. |
