Hello @treyaj

I believe that speech therapy would be most helpful to you and I encourage you to seek out a speech therapist with experience in your area of a TBI. I am glad to hear that singing helps you as it has with me as well.

Here is a link to an article about the effect of music on brain injured individuals, https://www.brainline.org/article/how-music-helps-heal-injured-brain

Here is another article about how singing is used to help people with brain injuries caused by strokes, https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2011/12/26/144152193/singing-therapy-helps-stroke-patients-speak-again

This interesting video was shared by one of our mentors, Martin, @predictable.

I would also suggest that you subscribe to a free subscription to Brain&Life, https://www.brainandlife.org/?originalURL=https://journals.lww.com/neurologynow/pages/articleviewer.aspx&year=2017&issue=13040&article=00009&type=FullText
There are many good articles there about the brain and healing.

Here is an example of singing in a medical environment. I think you will enjoy it😊
