Access to Better Communication Pediatric speech and language therapy in the Baton Rouge area is what we do! Click or call us today!

Access to Better Communication serves children and their families in Baton Rouge and the surrounding communities. When we opened in 1996, our mission statement was “to provide quality, professional speech-language pathology services that are effective, family oriented, and affordable.”

After over 20 years, our mission remains the same. We care very much about our patients and their families, which is the foundation upon which all other aspects of our practice are built. We want each and every child to feel like he/she is “coming home” when they enter our doors. Access to Better Communication has relationships with many of the top local pediatric medical professionals, clinical psychologists, university training program, and academic institutions from whom we are a trusted referral source. Those relationships are important to us and we work to maintain them for our children and their families.

🎓 Celebrating a BIG milestone at ABC! 🎓

Please help us congratulate this young man on GRADUATING from speech therapy!

He showed up, worked hard, and never gave up, even when it was tough. We are SO proud of him!

To Mom & Dad: thank you for the practice at home, the drives to every session, and believing in your son every step of the way. You were his biggest cheerleaders, and it shows.

And a huge shout-out to his speech therapist, Mrs. Emily Brakenridge, who met this child right where he was and helped him find his voice.

At Access to Better Communication, our focus is on our children. Always. Every plan, every session, every celebration is about the child in front of us. For 30 years, that’s who we’ve been, and moments like this are exactly why. ❤️

Congratulations, young man! We can’t wait to see everything you’ll say next!

🎉 Happy Birthday, ABC! 🎉

We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than letting our amazing kiddos say it themselves! 💙

30 years ago, Access to Better Communication opened its doors with one goal: helping every child find their voice. Watching these little ones proudly say "Happy Birthday" is exactly why we do what we do.

Thank you to our families, teachers, and community for trusting us with your children's communication journey. Here's to many more years of growth, giggles, and big words! 🗣️✨

This sweet child is discovering all the wonderful ways she can communicate!

With the support of her speech-language pathologist, Mrs. Emily Brakenridge, her parents and grandparents, her occupational therapist, and her daycare providers, she is learning to use Total Communication—including speech, American Sign Language, and an AAC device—to share her thoughts, wants, ideas, and, most importantly, her amazing personality!

We love seeing her discover her voice and communicate with the world around her.

Be sure to watch until the end—you’ll get a wonderful glimpse of her personality and adorable sense of humor!

🎓 SHE DID IT! 🎓
This sweet friend has officially graduated from speech therapy, and we couldn’t be more proud of her!

What a special milestone to celebrate! We are so grateful to have been a part of her journey and are honored that ABC had the opportunity to complete the circle of care for another sweet child.

A huge KUDOS to this amazing girl for all of her hard work, to her dedicated parents for their encouragement and support every step of the way, and to her wonderful speech-language pathologist, Mrs. Kylee Brasseaux, for helping her reach this exciting goal!

We love celebrating these moments—and we especially love watching our little friends discover just how much they can accomplish!

A little fun before the school-year hustle begins!

Before we jumped into another busy school year, our ABC team took some time to pause, connect, laugh, and enjoy being together!

We started the day with a delicious brunch at Spoke & Hub, catching up, enjoying good food, and celebrating the incredible team that makes ABC so special.

Then it was time to put our teamwork to the test at 13th Gate Escape! From problem-solving and communication to a whole lot of laughter, our escape room adventure reminded us that we’re even better when we work together!

At ABC, we believe that taking care of our team is an important part of taking care of the children and families we serve. We’re grateful for this amazing group of professionals—and we’re feeling refreshed, reconnected, and READY for a fantastic school year!

Here’s to another year of completing the circle of care for all children!

🎉 Congratulations to these two very special people! 🎉

One year ago, this incredible young man became Ms. Kylee's very first evaluation as a Clinical Fellow. He was also the very first child she guided from the beginning of his therapy journey all the way to achieving his goals and graduating from speech therapy.
Today, they're both celebrating major accomplishments! As this amazing student graduates from therapy, Ms. Kylee has reached an exciting milestone of her own by earning her certification as a Speech-Language Pathologist.

Watching their journeys unfold side by side has been such a meaningful reminder of why we love what we do. We are incredibly proud of both of you and all that you've accomplished.

Congratulations on your hard work, perseverance, and success—we can't wait to see what the future holds for each of you! 💙🎉
