ARCA Opening Doors

At ARCA Opening Doors, we understand that it can be difficult to identify if your child needs speech therapy. Therefore, we’ve created a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy. This guide can help you determine if your child needs speech therapy and provide you with the tools and resources to make an informed decision. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills like: responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, changing conversation topics, using gestures like pointing, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently diagnosed kids. Our guide provides you with information on the critical period for language development, language and communication skills, and effective ways to communicate to help your child grow into more independent and confident individuals. With our guide, you can learn how to identify if your child needs speech therapy and how to access the best resources and support for your child’s needs.
