Holistic Speech Therapy | Venice

At Holistic Speech Therapy in Venice, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. We recommend speech therapy for autistic children, as many of them have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal, they may need assistance in communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a key component in early intervention for autistic children, and is important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible due to the critical period for language development. If your child struggles with speaking, such as being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all, Holistic Speech Therapy can help. We have created a comprehensive guide to provide you with all the information you need to know about speech therapy.

At Holistic Speech Therapy in Venice, we strive to help your child develop the ability to communicate effectively with others. We equip them with the tools to use gestures, signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) to express their needs. Our speech therapy sessions will also help your child with nonverbal skills, forming speech more clearly, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, understanding body language, and more. We also specialize in helping with stuttering and feeding and swallowing. Our goal is to provide comprehensive and holistic speech therapy services to help your child communicate to the best of their ability.
