ACES | Carlsbad

At ACES Carlsbad, we understand how important it is to identify if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is displaying any of the following signs, it may be an indication they need speech therapy: difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversations, difficulty changing conversation topics, difficulty using gestures like pointing, difficulty understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and early intervention can be critical for language development. Our guide to speech therapy can provide you with the information you need to know to make the best decisions for your child.
