Speech therapy may include learning sign language and improving listening skills.

A speech pathologist is typically the one who performs the speech therapy with 1-on-1 meetings and groups settings.

Some individuals with cerebral palsy have problems moving their mouths to form words correctly because of muscle problems. Speech therapy can also help individuals with hearing loss speak more clearly. Speech therapists can also help cerebral palsy patients improve their listening skills and vocabulary.
