Creative Therapy Connections

At Creative Therapy Connections, we understand that as a parent, it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. We want to provide you with the necessary information so you can make the best decision for your child. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. A speech therapist can help your child with communication skills such as responding to questions, starting and ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Additionally, speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and can be a great starting place for recently diagnosed kids. If your child is struggling with speaking, it might be a good idea to look into speech therapy for them, as there is a critical period in the brain for language development, and it’s important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible. At Creative Therapy Connections, we have a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy to help you make the best decision for your child.

At Creative Therapy Connections, our speech therapists are dedicated to helping your child communicate effectively. Our speech therapists can help with nonverbal skills like signs and gestures, speaking more clearly, expressing thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and more. Our goal is to ensure your child can communicate in all environments, including the use of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC).
