At Michelle Blankenship, MS, we understand how important it is to recognize when your child needs speech therapy. If you are unsure, it is best to consult with a professional to assess your child’s communication skills. Speech therapy can help children on the autism spectrum improve social communication, respond to questions, start and end conversations, use gestures, and understand body language. Additionally, early intervention is key to helping your child develop language and communication skills, as well as build confidence and independence. Signs that your child may need speech therapy include being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all. Our comprehensive guide to speech therapy will provide you with all the information you need to make the best decision for your child.
