ABOUT US
ABOUT US
Integrated Speech and Respite Services, LLC
We work with people in the early stages following the onset of their communication and or swallowing difficulties, and with people many years after the initial problems begin. We work to optimize on Neuroplasticity- the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections and compensating for injury. Each person’s needs are individual and therapy should be realistic for daily living. This functional approach to rehabilitation is research and evidence based.
We also provide non-medical Respite Care Services. We will provide compassionate care to your loved one who needs supervision in the home or needs assistance with activities of daily living.

Meet The Team
Hali Bloom, MS, CCC-SLP
My name is Hali Bloom and I have been working as a speech therapist since 1996. My clinical expertise is with adults who have communication and/or swallowing disorders. I have worked extensively with the neurological population including those affected by stroke, brain injury, and progressive neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and MND. I began Integrative Speech Services in 2014. We have now expanded to include pediatric speech therapy as well as non-medical respite services.

My name is Ciara and I am originally from the Sarasota area and graduated from Pine View School in 2010. I received my Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees from Florida State University in 2014 and 2016 respectively. I enjoy working with a diverse caseload including children and adults. The best part of my day is empowering a family member to carryover therapy strategies to the natural environment.I enjoy exercising and playing with my two cats (Luna & Evie).
