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 as well as those who would like to make the most out of their brains. With 17 years of experience working with adults and children 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 brain science and speech pathology with health and positive psychology. Chronic illness, stroke, a life-altering injury, as well as every day stress impact more than just brain function—they affect every aspect of life. I believe therapy and coaching 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.
