At Connecticut Children’s – Hartford, we understand that it can be difficult to know when a child needs speech therapy. If you are unsure, you should consider speaking to a specialist or exploring our complete guide to everything you need to know. Speech therapy is often recommended for autistic children as many of them have difficulty with social communication. It is important to start speech therapy as early as possible as there is a critical period in the brain for language development. Signs that your child might need speech therapy include being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all.
