I Love You | Music and Speech | Practice Speech Therapy for Aphasia | Stroke or Brain Injury

Aphasia with Bri provides free speech therapy exercises for people with aphasia or apraxia of speech due to stroke or brain injury. This one combines music and language to help get the words out! Melodic Intonation Therapy-inspired video: Saying "I love you" with aphasia or apraxia of speech If you or your loved one has aphasia after a stroke, brain injury, or brain tumor, this video helps you practice speech using a method based on Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT) – a proven technique that uses music and rhythm to support language recovery. 🎶🧠 In this video, speech-language pathologist Bri guides you through saying "I love you" using melody, repetition, and visual cues. This is perfect for people with non-fluent aphasia, Broca's aphasia, apraxia of speech, or anyone working on rebuilding basic phrases. 🎵 Music and speech therapy go hand in hand! You can use simple tunes to practice other important phrases like your name, birthday, or home address. Singing familiar, slow-paced songs together (like “Let It Be” or “Yesterday”) is another great way to get words out. 💬 This video is designed to supplement speech therapy, not replace it. Always follow the advice of your doctor or SLP for your aphasia recovery. 📧 Questions? Email: AphasiaWithBri[at]gmail.com
