Have questions?

At The Children’s Center in Augusta, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Our guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy can help you determine if your child may benefit from it. Speech therapy is often recommended for autistic children, as many have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal and says many words, they may still need help with communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children, and is usually the starting place for those who have recently been diagnosed. Early language development is critical, so teaching communication and language skills as soon as possible is essential if any delays are present. If your child is struggling with speaking, they may be very quiet, say only a few words, or not speak at all. Let The Children’s Center in Augusta help you determine if speech therapy is the right choice for your child.

At The Children’s Center in Augusta, we understand that speech therapy can help your child in many ways. From helping them use gestures, simple signs and verbal speech to improving their nonverbal skills, forming clearer speech, and understanding facial expressions, our experienced speech therapists can help your child communicate effectively with others. We also specialize in helping children understand and respond to questions, notice and understand body language, and feed and swallow properly. Finally, we can provide help for those who stutter. With our comprehensive speech therapy services, we can help your child make progress in their communication skills.

At The Children’s Center in Augusta, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is a science-based therapy that focuses on teaching helpful skills to children and adults while reducing or eliminating harmful behaviors. We help our clients improve their communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills to promote independence. To learn more about ABA therapy, explore our complete guide to ABA therapy.

At The Children’s Center in Augusta, we understand that it’s a big decision to decide whether ABA therapy is the right choice for your child. We’re here to help you make an informed decision with our guide to start and end ABA therapy. As you consider ABA therapy, it’s important to be aware of providers who look to “cure” autism. High quality ABA therapy does exist and the goal is to help children learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. To learn more about ABA therapy and if it’s right for your child, please reach out to The Children’s Center in Augusta.

At The Children’s Center Augusta, we understand that ABA therapy costs can be a concern for families. We want to assure you that ABA therapy is usually covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. While insurance typically only authorizes ABA services for autism, it is important to confirm that your plan covers the diagnosis and that the provider is in-network. The Children’s Center Augusta provides a comprehensive guide to ABA therapy so you can have all the information you need to make the best decisions for your family.
