At MU Healthcare | Children’s Therapy Center, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many people with autism have difficulty with communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Early intervention is important for language development, and speech therapy can help your child learn effective ways to communicate, which can help them become more independent and confident. If your child struggles with speaking, there are resources available to help. Check out our complete guide for more information about speech therapy.
At MU Healthcare | Children’s Therapy Center, our speech therapists are dedicated to helping your child communicate effectively across all environments. We use a variety of methods, such as gestures, signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), to assist with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. With our help, your child can learn to express themselves in a meaningful way.
