Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics | Wesley Chapel

At Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics in Wesley Chapel, we understand the importance of speech therapy for autistic children. We recommend that all children with autism receive speech therapy, even if they seem very verbal and say a lot of words. Speech therapy helps develop communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. It is critical to provide speech therapy to autistic children during their early intervention period as this helps them become more independent and confident individuals. If you have any questions about speech therapy for your child, our team at Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics can provide you with the answers and resources you need.
