What is Our Philosophy?
At the Aphasia Center, we believe that you can always make progress, no matter how severe your condition or how long you’ve had aphasia/apraxia. You are the most important person in your recovery and rehabilitation, and we encourage and challenge you every step of the way. Our treatment is centered around you–your interests, work, family, and what’s important to you. There is no such thing as a “plateau” here. Therapy focuses on everyday life, so what you learn in the program is easily carried-over to your home and work life.
