Pediatric Therapy Associates- Fullerton

At Pediatric Therapy Associates- Fullerton, we understand that it can be difficult to know whether your child needs speech therapy. If your child has autism, speech therapy is typically recommended to help them develop communication skills. Even if your child is verbal, they may need help with conversation topics, understanding body language, or using gestures. Early intervention is key when it comes to language development and your child will learn the necessary skills to be an independent and confident individual. If your child is struggling to communicate, it can be helpful to refer to our complete guide to speech therapy for more information. At Pediatric Therapy Associates- Fullerton, we are here to provide expert guidance and support to ensure your child’s success.

At Pediatric Therapy Associates- Fullerton, our experienced speech therapists can help your child with a range of communication issues, such as nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, noticing and understanding body language, feeding, and swallowing.

We strive to provide tailored, high quality ABA therapy to help your child reach their full potential and embrace their unique personality traits. If you are considering ABA for your child, our complete guide will help you to start and end ABA therapy on the right foot.

At Pediatric Therapy Associates- Fullerton, we understand the importance of ABA therapy and the financial considerations that may come along with it. We want to ensure that you have the information you need to make an informed decision when it comes to your child’s care. That’s why we’ve compiled a comprehensive guide about ABA therapy and its cost. Generally, ABA therapy is covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. Insurance may consider other diagnoses, but typically only if ABA can be medically necessary. To make sure that ABA therapy is covered for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider you are seeking care from is in-network, we recommend you check with your insurance plan prior to starting ABA therapy.
