What does a speech pathologist do?

Got more than a sudden stutter that you want to fix? If that’s the case, you're probably looking for a speech language pathologist.

Speech therapists study, diagnose and treat communication disorders such as difficulties in speaking, listening or understanding. They work with people who have trouble communicating because of developmental delays, brain injuries, cerebral palsy, dementia, hearing loss, as well as other problems that may affect speech.

Speech and language therapy may involve assessing the client using a list of standard procedures for any speech delay or problem in communicating. Speech therapy for kids or children varies from speech therapy for adults. Speech and language therapy is designed to develop the skills and abilities your child needs to communicate more effectively.
