At Minnesota Autism Center in Cambridge, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Speech therapy is often recommended for children with autism since they may have difficulties with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need help with communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and can be critical for language development. If you’re concerned that your child might need speech therapy, our guide to speech therapy can help you learn more about the right steps to take.

Before starting ABA therapy, make sure you check with your specific insurance plan to verify it is covered for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider is in-network.
