Serving individuals with communication disorders and preparing professionals is the mission of the Clinical Services component of the CSD Department.*

The University of Montevallo's Speech and Hearing Center                     

Pediatric Services                                         

Children of all ages may receive diagnostic and therapy services through the center operated by the CSD Department at the University of Montevallo. Children can participate in the therapy program at the center according to their individualized needs. However, because the University of Montevallo Speech and Hearing Center is a training facility, the number of clients is restricted depending on the number of graduate clinicians and their training needs. Some children may benefit from "after school" treatment services while participating in their regular academic programs in public or private schools. Families with preschool children may need services such as those offered in our clinic. Children may be seen several times per week for group and/or individual therapy. Extensive diagnostic services are also available for a variety of communication disorders. There is a nominal fee for services, but families for whom payment presents a financial hardship may speak to the Clinic Director for other arrangements. 

To request an evaluation or services, families or referring professionals should call the Center at (205) 665-6720 or fill out the Request for Services Form  and either fax (205) 665-6721 or mail the form to the University of Montevallo Speech and Hearing Center, Station 6720, Montevallo, AL 35115.

Adult Services

The center provides diagnostic and therapy services for adults with various communication disorders. Services are arranged to meet the needs of the individual and may be scheduled during normal business hours. However, because the University of Montevallo Speech and Hearing Center is a training facility, the number of clients is restricted depending on the number of graduate clinicians and their training needs.

Also, we have faculty and staff who are experienced in the treatment of voice and fluency disorders.
