Autism Learning Partners | Jersey City

At Autism Learning Partners Jersey City, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. We recommend that speech therapy is almost always necessary for autistic children due to the difficulty they may have with social communication. Even if your child is verbal and speaks a lot of words, they may still need help with communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. That’s why speech therapy is a major focus in early intervention for autistic children and is often the starting point for newly diagnosed kids. It’s important to teach language and communication skills as soon as possible, especially if there are any delays. Through speech therapy, your child will learn effective ways to communicate and gain independence and confidence. If you notice your child is very quiet, speaks only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, it may be time to look into speech therapy. Don’t worry, Autism Learning Partners Jersey City is here to help! Check out our complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy.
