A neurologist or hospital should be able to refer patients to a speech therapist, where treatments are usually covered by health insurers. The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association maintains a searchable directory of practitioners at www.asha.org/findpro/.

To find a certified LSVT therapist in your area, check the directory at the nonprofit LSVT Foundation or its spin-off company LSVT Global. LSVT Global's eLOUD service offers Internet delivery of the speech treatment via standard webcam technology. The firm is developing a computer program that lets patients do some speech sessions at home.
