Kinetic Kids, Inc. (Partner Facility | St. Mary’s University)

At Kinetic Kids, Inc., partner facility of St. Mary’s University, we understand that knowing when your child needs speech therapy can be confusing. We’re here to help by providing a comprehensive guide on everything you need to know about speech therapy. A few signs that may indicate your child needs speech therapy include difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversation, difficulty changing conversation topics, and difficulty understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and is often the starting point for those recently diagnosed. It’s important to start language and communication skills as early as possible to take advantage of the critical period in the brain for language development and to help your child grow into an independent and confident individual. If you’re not sure if your child needs speech therapy, contact Kinetic Kids, Inc., a partner facility of St. Mary’s University to learn more.
