At Kaufman Children’s Center for Speech, Language, Sensory-Motor & Social Connections, Inc., we understand that it can be difficult to determine whether or not your child needs speech therapy. If your child is diagnosed with autism, then speech therapy is almost always recommended since many individuals with autism have difficulty with social communication. This includes responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and comprehending other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a key part of early intervention for autistic children and is a great way to help your child become more independent and confident. It’s important to be aware of any delays in language development and to provide language and communication skills to your child as soon as possible. If you are unsure if your child needs speech therapy, please refer to our complete guide for everything you need to know about speech therapy.
