BRAINS Potential

At BRAINS Potential, we understand that it can be difficult to determine if your child needs speech therapy. However, it is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. If your child struggles with speaking, has difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, or understanding others’ body language, they may need speech therapy. It’s important to start early, as the brain has a critical period for language development. At BRAINS Potential, we offer a complete guide to help you understand everything you need to know about speech therapy. With our help, your child can learn effective ways to communicate and grow into a more independent and confident individual.

At BRAINS Potential, our speech therapists are here to help your child communicate in the best way possible. Our team is well-versed in providing a range of speech therapies, from simple signs and gestures to nonverbal skills and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). We also provide support in understanding facial expressions and body language, forming speech in a more clear way, responding to questions, and feeding and swallowing. Our speech therapists will work with your child to develop effective communication across all environments.
