Valued Voices

At Valued Voices, we understand the importance of speech therapy for autistic children. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, look out for signs such as difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversations, difficulty using gestures, and difficulty understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important focus in early intervention for autistic children and is the perfect place to start if your child has recently been diagnosed. It’s critical to develop language and communication skills as early as possible, as there is a critical period in the brain for language development. Speech therapy can help your child become more independent and confident. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, our comprehensive guide has everything you need to know.

At Valued Voices, we understand that speech therapy is an important tool to help children communicate effectively. Our speech therapists are dedicated to helping your child improve their communication skills in a variety of ways, such as using gestures, signs, verbal speech, and AAC. We also specialize in providing assistance with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing.
