Autism & Behavioral Consulting, LLC | Palm Beach

At Autism & Behavioral Consulting, LLC in Palm Beach, we know how important it is to assess if a child needs speech therapy. If your child is on the autism spectrum, speech therapy is almost always recommended, even if they are already very verbal. Speech therapy can help your child with a range of communication skills like responding to questions, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Early intervention with speech therapy is key, as language development has a critical period in the brain. By teaching language and communication skills as early as possible, your child will be able to communicate more effectively and become more independent and confident. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, look for signs like: being quiet, saying few words, or not speaking at all. To learn more about speech therapy, check out our complete guide.
