Autism Services, Inc.

At Autism Services, Inc., we understand how important it is to recognize if your child needs speech therapy. Many people with autism have difficulty with social communication, so speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children. Even if your child is very verbal, there may be other aspects of communication that can be addressed with speech therapy, including responding to questions, starting or ending a conversation, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention for autistic children typically involves speech therapy, as there is a critical period of language development and it’s important to teach language and communication skills as soon as possible. If your child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, it could be an indication that they need speech therapy. To help you gain a better understanding of speech therapy, Autism Services, Inc. has created a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy.
