Pathfinder Pediatric Home Health | Dallas

At Pathfinder Pediatric Home Health in Dallas, TX, we understand that it can be difficult to know when your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, it is almost always recommended that they receive speech therapy as many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is verbal, they may need help with communication skills such as responding to questions, starting conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention for autistic children often includes speech therapy, and it is important to start language and communication skills as soon as possible in order to take advantage of the critical period in the brain for language development. We can help your child learn effective ways to communicate in order to become more independent and confident. If your child is struggling with speaking, being very quiet, or not speaking at all, they may benefit from speech therapy.
