Reclaim Your Communication and Quality of Life
At Converse With Confidence, Inc., we specialize in helping adults overcome communication and swallowing challenges caused by a variety of neurological and medical conditions. Whether you’re struggling with aphasia, motor speech disorders (such as dysarthria or apraxia), voice disorders (dysphonia), dementia, or cognitive impairments following a stroke or brain injury, we are here to support you.
Conditions like Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), and Acquired Apraxia of Speech can interfere with your ability to speak clearly, understand language, and communicate effectively. These same conditions can also impact your ability to swallow, leading to oropharyngeal dysphagia.
We are dedicated to addressing a range of issues, including:
- difficulty in speaking or understanding speech
- weakness, numbness, or unresponsiveness in the muscles of the mouth
- changes in tone, volume, or quality of your voice
- trouble eating or swallowing safely
Are you having difficulty focusing during conversations, while reading, or when completing everyday tasks?

- inattentiveness or lack of focus
- mild to severe memory loss
