Talk It Up Speech Therapy

At Talk It Up Speech Therapy, 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 social communication. Even if your child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they may still need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is also important for early intervention and language development, so it’s important to teach these skills as early as possible. If your child is struggling with speaking, such as being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all, it may be a sign that they need speech therapy.
