Vanessa Abraham

A Neu Healing

Palm Desert

As a critical illness survivor and a certified Speech-Language Pathologist for over 15 years, I offer a unique perspective to your listeners. I’ve personally navigated the difficult road to recovery from a neurological disorder that left me speechless in an ICU bed with partial paralysis, as well as severe voice and swallowing difficulties. I’ve learned what it takes to regain strength, find purpose, and reclaim an extraordinary quality of life.

I am committed to transforming the lives of individuals facing neurological challenges by sharing stories of hope, practical strategies, and a pathway to healing that is both natural and empowering.

Testimonials

“Vanessa brings a valuable and unique perspective as someone who has experienced being speechless in an ICU bed, offering heartfelt insights for caregivers, medical staff, and others on the path to recovery from medical trauma. Her story is a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit and an invaluable guide for anyone who wants to truly understand the importance of compassion and communication in healing from medical trauma.”
- Mattie Murrey, Host of The Missing Link for SLPs Podcast

"Vanessa’s courage and passion were clear during her interview with me on the Xceptional Leaders Podcast. But what stood out the most was her commitment to change. Sharing her story publicly isn’t a self-indulgent process but rather, a cry for understanding and reconnection with the patient perspective and a call for action to empower people with all forms of communication as early as possible in their medical journey."
- Mai Ling Chan, SLP and Business Strategies
