Making a difference one word at a time.
"Eating is the most complex physical task that human beings engage in."
K. Toomey
Being able to communicate and eat are two of the most important and enjoyable parts of life. As an adult, losing your speech, language, and/or swallowing skills can be devastating. Here at Edward, we have therapists that are experienced in addressing many areas of need that are of concern to you. Therapy can include tasks to improve your ability to communicate, to understand others, to utilize thinking skills and effective problem solving skills, and/or to swallow foods.
We use an individualized treatment protocol that is nearly unmatched in the Chicago area. We provide progressive one-on-one care that utilizes the same therapist throughout the length of your treatment. We strive to develop an individual relationship with you, so that you become more than just a "patient." These relationships allow us to partner with you to achieve your personal goals.

- Aphasia
