Summary

This study is for people with aphasia (trouble finding words) after a stroke. It tests whether spacing out speech therapy sessions in a personalized way helps people remember words better and use them in everyday life. About 32 participants will practice naming pictures and describing scenes, with follow-up at 3 months to see if the new schedule improves long-term word recall.
