The University of North Texas Speech and Hearing Center provides modern diagnostic and treatment services for persons who have speech and language needs. Clients range in age from 18 months to 80 years and reflect a diversity of speech, language, and voice disorders. We offer both individual and group therapy sessions. The one-on-one interaction of the individual approach provides clients with intensive treatment for their specific needs. Groups afford clients opportunities to achieve therapy goals in a naturalistic setting while interacting with people with similar communication disorders.

The UNT Speech and Hearing Center has an modern hearing clinic that offers diagnostic and rehabilitation services.
