Combining Anomia Therapy and Executive Function Training in Chronic Post-stroke Aphasia: a Pilot Study of Multidimensional Effects

The goal of this clinical trial is to measure the effects of a speech therapy protocol combining anomia therapy and executive function training on naming and discourse in people with chronic aphasia, and to study the related brain changes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the protocol improve naming skills ? * Do the improvements observed transfer to discourse abilities ? * Are there any brain changes induced by this protocol ? Researchers will compare anomia therapy alone to anomia therapy + executive function training to see if the latter works better. Participants will: * Have a whole language assessment and a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan in the hospital before and after the protocol * Receive 18 sessions of the protocol, 3 times a week during 6 weeks, in the hospital * Have several naming assessments during the protocol
