Happiness House | Canandaigua

At Happiness House in Canandaigua, NY, we understand that it can be difficult to determine if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is often highly recommended as it can help them to better understand and use social communication skills. Even if they use a lot of words, it may be difficult to understand other people’s body language, respond to questions, start or end conversations, or change conversation topics. Speech therapy is important to start as soon as possible in order to take advantage of the critical period for language development. Through speech therapy, your child can learn ways to effectively communicate and become more independent and confident in their life. If your child struggles with speaking, is very quiet, or says only a few words, it might be time to look into speech therapy. Our guide to speech therapy can help you to better understand the process and determine if it’s the right decision for you and your child.
