Post-Stroke Speech & Communication

Rebuilding the Ability to Speak, Understand, and Connect After Stroke

A stroke can dramatically affect a person’s ability to speak, understand language, and communicate effectively. Whether the difficulty is mild or severe, early and structured speech-language therapy can make a life-changing difference. At Umang Speech and Hearing Clinic, we offer specialized Post-Stroke Speech and Communication Therapy to help individuals regain lost language skills, improve speech clarity, and restore confidence in daily communication.

Our therapy is tailored to each patient’s unique recovery journey and delivered with compassion, expertise, and a clear focus on progress.

Why Stroke Affects Communication

When a stroke occurs in the brain’s language centers (usually the left hemisphere), it can lead to:

• Aphasia: Difficulty understanding or producing spoken or written language

• Dysarthria: Slurred or weak speech due to muscle control issues

• Apraxia of speech: Difficulty planning and coordinating the movements needed for speech

• Cognitive-communication difficulties: Problems with memory, attention, or reasoning that affect communication

These issues can impact not only speech, but relationships, emotional health, and independence.

Common Signs That Therapy Is Needed

You or your loved one may benefit from therapy if you notice:

• Trouble finding or forming words

• Inability to speak fluently or clearly

• Slurred, slow, or robotic speech

• Difficulty understanding others or following conversation

• Reading or writing difficulties

• Frustration or withdrawal from communication

• Loss of confidence when speaking in public or social settings

Even mild impairments can affect daily life—but with the right therapy, improvement is possible at any stage.

What Our Therapy Includes

At Umang, post-stroke communication therapy begins with a thorough assessment of speech, language, and cognitive-linguistic skills. Based on this, we create an individualized treatment plan that may include:

• Language retraining: Improving vocabulary, sentence formation, and comprehension

• Speech clarity exercises: Strengthening muscles involved in speech for better articulation

• Cognitive-linguistic therapy: Addressing memory, problem-solving, and attention skills

• Communication strategies: Teaching practical ways to express needs and ideas

• Augmentative communication support: When verbal speech is limited, we offer alternative tools

• Family training: Helping loved ones understand how to support communication at home

• Social conversation practice: Building confidence for real-life interactions

Therapy is goal-oriented and paced according to the patient’s recovery and comfort.
