Speech, Language & Hearing Clinic

The Minnesota State Moorhead Speech-Language & Hearing Clinic offers a complete range of speech, language and hearing services to people of all ages. Evaluations and screenings are conducted each week by appointment. Therapy is then tailored to individual needs.

The Speech-Language & Hearing Clinic was established in 1961 and has provided a broad range of services for children and adults with communication difficulties since then. Today, professional staff, as well as experienced faculty and graduate students, provide these services in our friendly clinic. We offer state-of-the-art evaluation and therapy related to speech, language and hearing disorders. All students are supervised by one of our clinical supervisors, who all have their Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).
