Marie Pense Center

At Marie Pense Center, we understand how important it is to identify if your child needs speech therapy. If your child has been diagnosed with autism, speech therapy is almost always recommended. Even if your child is very verbal, they might need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, changing conversation topics, understanding body language, and more. Early intervention for autistic children is key, and speech therapy can be the starting point for recently diagnosed kids. If you’re unsure if your child needs speech therapy, our complete guide to speech therapy can help you make an informed decision. With the help of Marie Pense Center, you can ensure your child has the communication skills necessary to grow into a more independent and confident person.

At Marie Pense Center, we recognize that effective communication is essential in everyday life. Our experienced speech therapists provide specialized therapy to help children develop the expressive and receptive skills needed for meaningful communication. Our therapy sessions are tailored to address a variety of communication needs, such as nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and stuttering. We aim to provide the highest quality of speech therapy services to ensure your child is able to communicate effectively in all environments.

At Marie Pense Center, we understand the importance of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy and how it can help promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, and is used to teach helpful skills that improve communication, social, and daily living skills.

At Marie Pense Center, we understand how important it is to know how much ABA therapy will cost. Generally, ABA therapy is covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. While some insurance plans may cover other diagnoses, autism is usually the only diagnosis covered for ABA services because of the evidence-based benefits of this type of therapy. We always recommend checking with your specific insurance plan to confirm that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnoses and that the provider you are seeking care at is in-network.
