At Easterseals Northern California in Petaluma, we understand how important it is to recognize when a child needs speech therapy. If you have concerns that your child is having difficulty with communication, you may want to consider seeking the help of a speech therapist. Speech therapy can be beneficial for autistic children since many have difficulty with social communication and there is a critical period in the brain for language development. Through speech therapy, your child will learn effective ways to communicate which can help them grow into more confident individuals. Common signs that a child may need speech therapy include difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. We provide a complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy. Learn more by visiting our website or contact us today for more information.
