Crane Rehab Center | Pediatrics

At Crane Rehab Center Pediatrics, we understand how important it is to spot and address any developmental delays in your child’s speech and communication. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, there are a few signs to look out for. Common signs that speech therapy may be necessary include difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversations, difficulty changing conversation topics, and difficulty understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a key part of early intervention for autistic children, as the critical period in the brain for language development is key to ensuring that your child learns the necessary language and communication skills. Our guide to speech therapy will provide you with everything you need to know about how to identify when speech therapy is necessary and how it can help your child grow into a more confident and independent individual.
