CI Pediatric Therapy Centers (CI) | Sun Prairie

At CI Pediatric Therapy Centers in Sun Prairie, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. We offer a complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy and can help determine if your child needs it. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal, they might need to work on communication skills, like responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, using gestures like pointing, or understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention is important as there is a critical period in the brain for language development and teaching language and communication skills as soon as possible can help your child become more independent and confident. If your child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, speech therapy might be necessary. Reach out to us at CI Pediatric Therapy Centers today to find out if speech therapy is right for your child.
