Therapies of The Rockies | Lakewood

At Therapies of The Rockies in Lakewood, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Many autistic children have difficulty with social communication, and speech therapy is almost always recommended. Even if your child is very verbal, they may still need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Early intervention is key to helping your child develop language and communication skills, and the sooner you intervene the more successful your child will be. If your child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, then it might be time to consider speech therapy.
