At Rhoda | Marie Lum You, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. That’s why we have created a complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy, so you can make an informed decision. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently diagnosed kids. In addition, if a child struggles with speaking – such as being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all – speech therapy may be beneficial. At Rhoda | Marie Lum You, we strive to provide you with the resources and information to make the best decisions for your child.
