Mighty Kids Therapy, LLC

Mighty Kids Therapy, LLC understands that it can be difficult to determine if your child may need speech therapy. If you have an autistic child, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many autistic children have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is an important focus of early intervention for autistic children, as there is a critical period for language development. By teaching language and communication skills as early as possible, your child can learn effective ways to communicate and grow into a more independent and confident individual. If you suspect that your child may need speech therapy, our complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy can help you make the best decision for your child.
