Whether you call it diction, articulation, pronunciation, clarity, or intelligibility, everyone wants to be understood by others. I combine traditional speech therapy with creative tools from the arts, literature, and cross-cultural communication, for adults and teens. Examples of this work:

Improved clarity and intelligibility for performing artists, student actors, and professional speakers/ lecturers/storytellers;

Accent modification for those whose first language is not American English;

Traditional speech therapy for adults & teens with long-standing or newly-acquired speech distortions.

Speech therapy is available in-person or via Skype. Click here for scheduling.

"Speech is the means by which the soul expresses itself."—Galen, first century Greek physician

Mend your speech a little,
Lest it may mar your fortunes.
—Shakespeare, King Lear I, 1

Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt. —New Testament, Colossians iv. 6.

Speak ill of no man, but speak all the good you know of everybody.—Benjamin Franklin
