Cait Gannon is a dedicated and passionate medical speech-language pathologist. Cait earned her graduate degree in Speech Language Pathology from UMass Amherst, and since then, she’s been on a mission to support individuals across the lifespan in finding their voice—literally and figuratively. She’s volunteered with Healing Harmonies, a remarkable choir made up of adults with neurological conditions, bringing the power of music and community to the forefront of healing. She’s also worked with REACH Early Intervention, helping our youngest clients build strong foundations for communication. Currently, Cait is part of the rehab team at Baystate Franklin Medical Center, where she works with voice clients and patients navigating cognitive impairments following strokes and brain injuries. Today, she’s here to share her insights into the world of medical SLP—what it’s like to support patients through some of their most vulnerable moments, the challenges and rewards of working in a rehab setting, and how voice and cognition intersect in powerful, life-changing ways.
