Adult Speech Therapy: Parkinson’s Voice Treatment

At Ridgeline Speech Therapy Associates, our adult services are currently focused on Parkinson’s voice therapy, helping individuals with Parkinson’s disease strengthen and maintain their ability to speak clearly and be heard.

SPEAK OUT!® Voice Therapy – Be Heard Again

We offer SPEAK OUT!®, an evidence-based, intensive speech therapy program specifically designed for individuals with Parkinson’s. This structured, one-on-one program was developed by the Parkinson Voice Project and targets the motor speech system to improve vocal strength, clarity, and confidence. The therapy focuses on speaking with intent, helping retrain the brain and maintain communication skills over time.

• One-on-one, personalized sessions

• Emphasis on vocal intensity and clarity

• Proven to improve speech and maintain vocal function

• Conveniently provided in your home throughout Washington County

If your voice has become softer, your speech less clear, or communication more effortful, SPEAK OUT!® may be the right fit for you or your loved one.

Note: Group therapy is not currently offered. All services are delivered one-on-one, with a focus on your unique needs and goals.

Free Parkinson’s Information Sessions

We also offer free educational sessions for individuals, families, and caregivers. These sessions cover the basics of Parkinson’s disease and how it impacts speech and swallowing, along with strategies and tools to support better communication and quality of life.

Community Collaboration Opportunities

While our services are primarily in-home, we are also open to partnering with local community centers, senior facilities, and health clinics that would like to offer Parkinson’s voice therapy on-site. If you’re part of a local organization interested in supporting individuals with Parkinson’s, we’d love to connect and explore how we can work together. Please feel free to reach out!
