Reclaim Your Voice and Stay Connected

Empowering You to Speak with Confidence Through Parkinson’s Speech Pathology Treatment

Can you say that again?

It’s frustrating when your voice doesn’t reflect your thoughts. We understand the struggle, but we’re here to help you find your voice again.

Living with Parkinson’s means more than tremors and movement challenges. It’s the frustration of not being able to express yourself clearly, to be heard and understood.

Whether it’s struggling to keep up in conversations or repeating yourself multiple times, we know how exhausting this can be—both emotionally and physically.

❌ I can't be heard.

❌ I have to repeat myself a lot.

❌ I’m constantly asked, “What did you say?”

❌ Conversations feel like a struggle.

❌ I’m quieter than I used to be.

❌ I’ve stopped talking as much because it’s too hard.

You’re not alone. Our Parkinson’s speech therapy programs can help you reclaim your voice, communicate with ease, and restore confidence in daily conversations.

Imagine speaking with confidence, engaging in conversations without frustration, and feeling fully heard by your loved ones again. Let’s get you there.

A consultation can help us understand your unique needs and recommend the best approach to improve your speech and voice.

Control Your Speech and Control Your World

WHAT YOU MAY EXPERIENCE

👉🏻 you may be asked to repeat what you say

WHAT OTHERS HEAR

Your dedicated speech-language pathologist (SLP) will work closely with you to understand your specific challenges, goals, and preferences. This ensures that your treatment plan is fully personalized, selecting the approach—whether LSVT LOUD® or SPEAK OUT!®—that best aligns with your communication goals.

It’s not just about therapy. It’s about helping you reconnect, communicate effectively, and live fully.

Meet Mark
Reconnecting at University

Three years before he consulted with LIFE Speech Pathology, Mark began experiencing the early signs of Parkinson's Disease.

A former economics university professor where he had imparted his lectures and built strong relationships with his students, he increasingly could not communicate with the same vocal clarity and volume. This caused him to withdraw from social activities.

Nonetheless, with the LSVT LOUD® program at LIFE Speech Pathology, he saw a remarkable improvement in his speaking ability within a few weeks.

His voice was louder and more distinct, no longer requiring him to repeat himself. Consequently, his assurance returned as he was able to attend guest lectures and reconnect with his students

"Before working with LIFE Speech Pathology®, I struggled to keep up in conversations. Now, I feel heard and confident again, even in group settings."

Meet Clara
Thriving at Book Club

Clara, a book club organizer and grandmother of five, was known for her vivacious storytelling. However, her voice weakened and lost clarity due to Parkinson’s, causing her to shy away from reading out loud to her grandchildren.

She embarked on a treatment journey with LIFE Speech Pathology and the Speak Out!® program, which proved incredibly transformative.

With a focus on 'speaking with intent,' Clara regained the strength and expressiveness of her voice, making her stories even more animated. She happily returned to her role as the beloved storyteller in her family.

Clara's journey demonstrated that LIFE was dedicated to seeing her regain her voice and ensuring that all aspects of her life were vibrant and fulfilled.

"Thanks to the team at LIFE, I’ve regained my voice and independence. It’s made a world of difference in my daily life.
I feel supported."
