Advocate Condell Pediatric Alternatives in Creative Therapy

At Advocate Condell Pediatric Alternatives in Creative Therapy, we understand that determining if your child needs speech therapy may not always be clear. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures like pointing, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy can also help your child learn effective ways to communicate, helping them to grow into more independent and confident individuals. If you are unsure if your child needs speech therapy, our guide, “Everything You Need to Know About Speech Therapy”, is here to help. Contact Advocate Condell Pediatric Alternatives in Creative Therapy today to learn more.
