Speech and Language Therapy

Speech and language therapy services are offered onsite by a Speech-Language Pathologist on the High Point Village team. Individual and group sessions are available year round and follow the Cultivate calendar.

Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) can help a person who has trouble understanding others (receptive language) or sharing their thoughts, ideas, and feelings (expressive language). SLPs can also teach a non speaking individual to use an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) system, or improve a person’s ability to organize their thoughts, pay attention, remember, and solve problems.

Communication Enhancement Groups

Communication Enhancement Groups are offered each semester by students and faculty from the Speech-Language Pathology Program at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. 1 hour group sessions offered every Monday.

June 13th – July 25th: ‘Villagers’ Valuable Voices’

Villagers will engage in therapeutic goals by using their voices to meet their full potential through socialization, playing games, preparing for the work environment, and communicating with their peers and individuals within the community. The students from the Speech-Language and Hearing Clinic at the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center will facilitate this group with supervision from Lisa Gore, Speech-Language Pathologist.
