Speech-Language Pathology is a health care profession devoted to helping individuals with communication disorders, including speech sound production, understanding the spoken word, controlling vocal output, forming sentences to convey information or ask questions, and socializing with peers. Since communication is an innate need and desire, an inability to do so efficiently most often results in distress and frustration, appearing in the form of agitation, tantrum behavior or withdrawal.
People who are either born with or acquire a speech or language disorder, often experience difficulty forming relationships and interacting in a traditional manner with family or peers. Disorganization of language processing impairs the ability to communicate and understand typical patterns of socialization. It is most often an isolating disorder, whether in early development, childhood, adolescence, or in progressive adult diseases and aging.
