Cherry Hill, NJ
Insight Speech and Swallowing Therapy is proud to offer LSVT LOUD®, a gold-standard speech therapy program for individuals with Parkinson’s disease. If you or a loved one is experiencing voice or communication challenges, we’re here to help you reclaim your voice and confidence.
Parkinson’s Awareness Month: Reclaim Your Voice with LSVT LOUD®
April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness for the millions living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). One of the most common — and often overlooked — symptoms of Parkinson’s is speech and voice changes. These may include speaking more softly, a monotone voice, or difficulty being understood.
LSVT LOUD® (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment) is an evidence-based, intensive voice therapy designed specifically to help individuals with Parkinson’s speak louder, clearer, and more confidently.
LSVT LOUD® in Cherry Hill, NJ at Insight Speech and Swallowing Therapy
We are excited to now offer LSVT LOUD® therapy in Cherry Hill, NJ and surrounding South Jersey communities. Delivered by certified LSVT LOUD® provider Katie Love, M.S. CCC-SLP, CBIS, this program helps individuals with Parkinson’s improve their vocal loudness, articulation, and breath support for better daily communication.
Benefits of LSVT LOUD® Speech Therapy:
- Increases vocal loudness
- Improves articulation and intonation
- Strengthens breath support
- Enhances overall communication confidence
- Builds long-lasting speech improvements with continued practice
When Should You Start LSVT LOUD® Therapy?
It’s best to start LSVT LOUD® as early as possible — even before significant speech problems occur.
At Diagnosis: Early intervention helps preserve communication skills.
First Signs of Change: If speech is getting softer or harder to understand, it’s time to begin therapy.
After Communication Issues Are Noticed: If loved ones say, “I can’t hear you,” LSVT LOUD can help.
Even in Later Stages of PD: It's never too late to benefit — clients often see meaningful improvements at any stage.
How LSVT LOUD® Works
LSVT LOUD® is a structured 4-week program with 4 sessions per week, led by a certified clinician. Treatment focuses on:
Speaking with intent and louder volume
Daily voice exercises and carryover tasks
Long-term strategies to maintain gains
Studies show that up to 89% of individuals with Parkinson’s disease experience voice and speech challenges. Many of our clients report significant improvements in communication after completing the LSVT LOUD® program. In fact, research supports lasting benefits for up to two years or more with continued home practice.
