Understanding the relationship between our mental health and communication is important when providing a holistic approach to communication training, voice therapy, and speech therapy for adults. A collaboration between a speech therapist and a psychotherapist can be invaluable for adults who are experiencing challenges with their communication.

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

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."
