Partners in Behavioral Milestones

At Partners in Behavioral Milestones, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Speech therapy is a critical part of early intervention for autism, and it helps children develop the language and communication skills they need to become independent and confident. Signs that your child may need speech therapy include not speaking, speaking only a few words, difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversation, and trouble understanding other people’s body language. Our guide to speech therapy can help you understand more about the therapy and how it can help your child. Contact Partners in Behavioral Milestones to get more information and find out how we can help.

At Partners in Behavioral Milestones, we understand how important it is for your child to communicate effectively. Our speech therapists can provide support to help your child with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings clearly, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. We also specialize in providing Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) to help your child reach their behavioral milestones.

At Partners in Behavioral Milestones, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, a science-based treatment for children and adults. ABA therapy helps to improve communication, social, and daily living skills while reducing challenging behaviors. Our goal is to equip our clients with the skills they need to live independently and reduce problematic behaviors. Learn more about ABA therapy and how it can help you by visiting our comprehensive guide.

Partners in Behavioral Milestones understand that the decision to pursue ABA therapy for your child is a big one. We provide ABA therapy to help your child improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. We believe that the goal of ABA therapy should not be to “cure” autism or to make your child appear “less autistic”, but instead to help your child learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. To help you understand ABA more, Partners in Behavioral Milestones have created this comprehensive guide to start and end ABA therapy.
