If you are wondering whether or not your child needs speech therapy, the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center can help. Speech therapy is often recommended for children with autism due to difficulties with social communication. Even if your child is verbal, they may need help with communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Additionally, early intervention is key in language development, so it’s important to provide speech therapy as soon as possible to give your child the best chance to reach their full potential. Signs that your child may need speech therapy can include being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all.
