Aphasia is an acquired language disorder that impacts the ability to use language during expression (speaking or signing), reception (understanding language), reading, and writing. Where the damage was determines the symptoms. See Sierra Speech videos on aphasia here. 

​

Most common causes of aphasia are stroke, traumatic brain injury, and progressive disease like dementia or Parkinson's. ​​​Our providers are experts in aphasia and after assessment will collaborate with you and family on functional outcomes and meaningful goals.
