Piedmont Athens Regional Rehabilitation

At Piedmont Athens Regional Rehabilitation, we understand that you may have questions and concerns about speech therapy for your child. If you are wondering if your child needs speech therapy, there are a few indicators that can help you make this determination. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for children with autism, since many of these children have difficulty with social communication skills. Additionally, if a child is very verbal, but has difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, or understanding body language, speech therapy can be beneficial. Early intervention for language development is important, and speech therapy can help your child become more independent and confident in their communication skills. If your child is very quiet, only says a few words, or does not speak at all, speech therapy can be a great resource. At Piedmont Athens Regional Rehabilitation, we have a complete guide to help you understand everything you need to know about speech therapy.
