The speech-language pathologist (SLP) evaluates and treats such disorders of human communication as stuttering, delayed language development, aphasia, and voice and articulation problems. Computer applications to help individuals who are unable to speak are an exciting new area of study. The SLP also counsels individuals with speech and language disorders and their families on ways to facilitate better communication in home, school and/or vocational settings.
