Speech-Language Services


Adult Speech-Language

McLellan Communication Services specializes in working with adult communication disorders, including but not limited to Aphasia, Motor Speech Disorders, Stuttering, and Voice Disorders. We also have a special interest in Primary Progressive Aphasia and can provide information and support for individuals and families with this diagnosis.
What is Aphasia?

Aphasia is a language disorder that occurs most commonly as the result of a stroke. Aphasia may affect how much language you understand, how much language you can express, or both. Aphasia does NOT affect your intelligence.

For more information and resources on Aphasia, please visit the Aphasia Institute.


What is Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA)?

PPA is a diagnosis like Aphasia which involves a loss of language without the presence of a stroke or injury to the brain. Individuals with PPA experience only a loss of language for at least 2 years before other symptoms start to appear. Our services can help prepare individuals and families for what to expect, and provide resources and communicative supports, particularly in earlier stages of a PPA diagnosis.
What is a Motor Speech Disorder?

A Motor Speech Disorder is anything involving the motor system in the brain resulting in a change in speech. This can affect your ability to put sounds in the right order in words, the way your voice sounds, or even how quickly or slowly you can get the words out.

There are many causes of motor speech disorders, but some include a stroke, Parkinson Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and brain injury.
