With an adult approach to speech therapy, adults are able to make changes to their communication. Whether you have a disorder or want to work on communication skills for your own professional or personal development- our registered speech-language pathologist will collaborate with you to develop a program that fits your unique and individual needs.

Communication is the way that we share our identity with others. When our communication does not reflect who we know ourselves to be, speech therapy, voice therapy, or communication training can help. "My goal as a speech-language pathologist is to help more people become proud communicators who feel they can communicate their true Self every day!"- Jordan Scholl, SLP

One of the most common sounds trained in articulation therapy or accent modification therapy at TASC, is the "th" sound (as in "this" or "thin). In this post, we discuss why differences exist between certain sounds across different languages, and how these differences impact a listener's overall ability to understand a speaker who did not learn English as a first language.

May is the month of the year where we promote every person's right to communicate, and educate people on the role of a speech-language pathologist in facilitating this right. Throughout the month of May, we will be discussing the various roles of a speech-language pathologist and answering some of the most common questions we get about the services we provide for adults here at Toronto Adult Speech Clinic.

There are many myths about the effects of the speaking voice on the singing voice. Here is some of the most important information every singer should know, and how to spot the changes that might indicate the speaking voice is not functioning efficiently enough to support the singing voice.

Many people, including speech therapists, favour the use of the term stuttering over the term stammering, and vice versa. I go into some detail about my own experiences with these two words and their unique origins. Ultimately in search of the answer to this question: should their differences inform treatment for people who stutter and people who stammer.

Over 64% of Toronto's population speaks a language other than English at home, and yet non-native English speakers are constantly facing barriers in their social and professional lives because of their accents. Toronto Adult Speech Clinic has a fresh take on accent modification therapy for adults, to help individuals not only reach their English-speaking goals, but become more confident communicators.

You may think you know the limits of what a speech therapist can do. But speech therapy is not reserved solely for children or disordered populations like stroke or accident survivors. Here are a list of just 10 (of the many) ways that a speech therapist can help non-disordered adults become stronger communicators.

At TASC we believe communication is a basic human right. With adults accounting for approximately 80% of Toronto's population..."We have a responsibility to every client and every potential client to stay informed, up to date with current research, and make ourselves accessible and respectful in our practice of adult speech therapy. No one should feel isolated or alienated on their journey to communicate effectively- after all, the ability to communicate is a basic human right."
