  • What our clients are saying:

    “Anna was patient, kind and professional. She listened to the interests of my brother and was able to structure some of the work around those things which were stimulating for him. She took time to keep the family updated with progress as well as any problem areas. I would highly recommend Speech Solutions for anyone in need of at home speech therapy.” PS

  • What our clients are saying:

    “Since starting the LSVT LOUD program, I am more confident in my voice. I do not hesitate to talk in group settings for fear of what may come out.” LN

  • What our clients are saying:

    “I was hesitant to begin with, but after the first visit I began to feel more confident. Now I am not afraid to live my life!” AB

  • What our clients are saying:

    “Anna Bishop is a very compassionate and energetic speech therapist who will come to your home at your convenience. This pleasant and personable young lady is full of ideas and custom techniques to help folks like me (I have Parkinson’s Disease) to better communicate with spouse and friends. She tailors her techniques to one’s particular interests. For example, since I enjoy playing the harmonica, she has made the effort of adding harmonica terms to the practice word list. This approach tends to make speech therapy much more fun and interesting. I certainly notice an improvement in the loudness and pronunciation of my speech and I always look forward to her visits.” MG

  • Anna Bishop, M.Ed., CCC-SLP

    Owner and SLP

    With over 11 years experience in helping adults with stroke, brain injury, and other neurodegenerative diseases, I provide evidence based, compassionate, and meaningful therapy to support communication, social participation, and independence. I received my Master’s degree from Valdosta State University, and have worked in a range of settings including acute care, inpatient rehab, home health, outpatient neuro rehab, and long term acute care hospitals. I am licensed in the State of Georgia and certified by the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association (ASHA).

    I believe therapeutic relationships are most successful when they are built upon trust and understanding. I am passionate about providing holistic, person-centered care to help adults reclaim their communication, maintain their social lives, and improve their interactions with family and friends.

    In my free time, I enjoy yoga, reading, and spending time outdoors with my husband, daughter and dog!
