Lexington Life Academy | Freestone (Gilbert)

At Lexington Life Academy | Freestone, we understand that it’s difficult to know if a child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended as many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills, such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently-diagnosed kids. Our complete guide to speech therapy can help you understand if your child needs help in this area and how to best provide this support.
