Carolina Speech & Feeding Center | Charlotte

At Carolina Speech & Feeding Center in Charlotte, we understand that it can be difficult to determine if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is diagnosed with autism, speech therapy is almost always recommended as many people with autism have difficulty with communication. However, even if your child is quite verbal but struggles with social communication, it is still important to seek speech therapy. Speech therapy focuses on teaching language and communication skills, and is a critical part of early intervention for autistic children. It is important to act quickly if you observe any delays in language development. Signs that your child might need speech therapy include being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, our team of experienced professionals can help. Visit our website for more information, or contact us directly for a consultation.
