Where Speech Meets Harmony -
Holistic care for your communication needs
Welcome!
At Spoken Harmony, we believe treating communication concerns requires a holistic approach, because when one part of our body is off balance, problems in other other areas may manifest. Deficits in our breathing can impact our ability to speak at a louder volume or for a prolonged time. Changes in our alertness, cognitive functioning, or mental health may cause word finding (“tip of the tongue”) difficulties or issues with fluent speech. Articulation difficulties may be due to developmental (i.e., speech sound) delays or rooted in poor development of the oral muscles needed to speak effectively. At Spoken Harmony we believe in figuring out the “root” cause of the problem, not just a band-aid solution.
