Meet Jessica Cortez M.A., CCC-SLP, CBIS
Speech Language Pathologist, Certified Brain Injury Specialist
My Story
My name is Jessica Cortez, and I am a Speech-Language Pathologist and Certified Brain Injury Specialist based in Timnath, Colorado. Through my private practice, The Loom Connection LLC, I specialize in treating individuals with acquired brain injuries. With 15 years of experience working with adults in various therapy settings, including rehabilitation hospitals, sub-acute care, outpatient facilities, home health, and long-term care, I have developed a therapeutic style that integrates speech pathology with health and positive psychology. Many people seek speech therapy following a chronic illness diagnosis, stroke, or potentially life-altering injury, and these events impact more than just brain function—they affect every aspect of life. I believe therapy should focus on the whole person, guiding individuals toward improved health span and longevity.
I am certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and the Brain Injury Association of America. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from The University of Mount Union and a Master’s in Speech-Language Pathology from The George Washington University. My family and I live in the Fort Collins, Colorado area and love all things outdoors. I look forward to meeting you and would be honored to be a part of your recovery journey!
My Why
This is my dad, Rick and me. My father died at the age of 42 as the result of a brain aneurysm. In honor of my father, I devote my life's work to help prevent brain injuries and enhance the lives of those living with their effects.
