Leaps and Bounds Pediatric Therapy

At Leaps and Bounds Pediatric Therapy, we understand that you may be wondering if your child needs speech therapy. It is often recommended for autistic children as they may have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child speaks a lot of words, they may benefit from speech therapy to learn communication skills such as responding to questions, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and is a great way to teach language and communication skills at a young age. If your child struggles with speaking, they may benefit from speech therapy to become more independent and confident. To learn more about speech therapy, please check out our comprehensive guide.
