Did you know that flipping through a catalog or dreaming about your perfect fishing rod can be a powerful therapy tool? In this episode, we dive into creative and fun ways to take charge of your aphasia recovery at home. Whether you’re using a catalog to practice naming and reading or exploring your favorite hobby to rebuild communication skills, progress is always possible.
Recovery doesn’t stop when therapy ends. You have the tools to keep growing—and they might be right on your kitchen counter. We’ll share actionable steps, like saving catalogs, turning hobbies into therapy, and keeping progress moving in ways that feel meaningful to you.
