    Our Approach:

    Debbie Yones, M.S., CCC-SLP and her trusted team of experienced Speech-Language Pathologists, deliver individualized aphasia therapy based on the principles of the Life Participation Approach to Aphasia (LPAA). "LPAA places the life concerns of those affected by aphasia at the center of all decision making," meaning that the goals we set and the treatment we deliver are based on your interests and intended to make a real impact on your everyday life.  Debbie has presented on this model at recent and upcoming professional conferences.  Visit our services page to learn more about our approach.

     

    Our Clients:

    Our clients range from people whose aphasia began a few weeks ago to those who have been living with aphasia for years. Our aphasia therapy clients have come from as far as Maryland, New York, and California, and as close as Largo and St. Petersburg. 

     

    Our Partner:

    Debbie is also honored to be the Program Director and Emeritus Member of the Board Voices of Hope for Aphasia, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing life-participation opportunities to people with aphasia and their caregivers.  Therapy program options may include one or two days participation in VHA programming. Contact us for more information.
