At One of the Kids, we understand how important it is to know if your child needs speech therapy. If you have an autistic child, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a critical part of early intervention for autistic children and is key in teaching language and communication skills as early as possible. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, it may be obvious if they struggle speaking – they may be very quiet, say only a few words, or don’t speak at all. Check out our complete guide to learn more about speech therapy and how it can help your child grow into a more independent and confident individual.

At One of the Kids, our speech therapy is designed to help your child communicate in a variety of ways, from using gestures to verbal speech and beyond. Our speech therapists can help children with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, expressing thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and body language, and even feeding and swallowing. We strive to give your child the best tools to communicate effectively with the world around them.
