On the Move Pediatric Therapy

At On the Move Pediatric Therapy, we understand that determining whether your child needs speech therapy can be a difficult and confusing process. That’s why we provide comprehensive guidance on the signs to look for and the critical importance of early intervention. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, changing conversation topics, using gestures like pointing and understanding other people’s body language. With the right speech therapy, your child will develop effective communication skills, enabling them to become more independent and confident. If you’re concerned that your child is struggling with speaking, our guide to speech therapy will help you understand what to look for and what you need to know.

At On the Move Pediatric Therapy, we strive to help your child communicate effectively with the people around them. Our speech therapy services are designed to help children learn to form speech in a clearer way, understand and respond to questions, and discern facial expressions and their corresponding emotions. We can also assist your child with nonverbal skills such as gestures and signs, communicating thoughts and feelings, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. With our tailored approach to speech therapy, we hope to help your child move forward and have successful conversations.

At On the Move Pediatric Therapy, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is a science-based approach to help children and adults learn communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills, while also addressing challenging behaviors. Our goal is to help individuals gain independence and reduce problem behaviors through teaching helpful skills. Learn more about ABA therapy with our comprehensive guide.

At On the Move Pediatric Therapy, we understand the difficulty of making the decision to pursue Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for your child. We believe that ABA therapy can be a powerful tool for improving communication skills, introducing productive habits, and reducing harmful behaviors. However, we caution against those who claim to “cure” autism with ABA, as the goal should never be to “fix” children, make them appear “less autistic” or change who they are. It’s our mission to help children reach their full potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. That’s why we offer comprehensive guidance on when and how to start and end ABA therapy. Visit On the Move Pediatric Therapy to learn more.
