At Emilie V. Hood, M.S., CCC | SLP, we understand how difficult it can be to determine if your child needs speech therapy. 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. It is important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible, to ensure that your child can grow into an independent and confident individual. If you’re unsure whether or not your child needs speech therapy, our complete guide to speech therapy provides everything you need to know to make an informed decision. Visit Emilie V.
