Genevieve Richardson

Genevieve Richardson is the driving force behind LIFE Speech Pathology®, a private practice located in Austin, Texas and LIFE Aphasia Academy®, an educational and support hub for individuals and families living with aphasia. With nearly three decades of experience in adult rehabilitation, Genevieve is dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with aphasia and their families. LIFE Speech Pathology is at the forefront of telepractice, bringing expert speech therapy directly to clients across twelve states. Specializing in chronic aphasia, apraxia, dysarthria, and cognitive-communication evaluation and treatment, Genevieve's practice extends beyond geographical boundaries and can meet the treatment needs of those just starting outpatient treatment to individuals months or years after the onset of aphasia. Complementing her practice, the "Listen for LIFE Aphasia" podcast is designed to inspire, support, provide resources, and offer crucial information for persons with aphasia (PWA) and their families as they navigate their journey with aphasia. Genevieve hosts "Welcoming the Unwelcome Guest Called Aphasia During the Holidays," a comprehensive 5-part video training series available to all. She offers a free masterclass titled "From Challenge to Cheer: Crafting Aphasia-Inclusive and Supportive Holiday Gatherings." These programs equip participants with valuable strategies and action plans to decrease stress and enhance connection during the holiday season, despite the challenges of aphasia. Genevieve’s mission is to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by aphasia through training speech language pathologists seeking innovative telepractice solutions as well as families touched by aphasia. Genevieve welcomes all to be a part of this journey toward improved communication, inclusion, and support through DoLIFESpeechPathology.com.
