Autism Learning Partners | Laguna Hills

At Autism Learning Partners in Laguna Hills, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. If your child has Autism, it’s almost always recommended since many people with Autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they may need help to develop communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a key component of early intervention for autistic children and it’s important to start as soon as possible to ensure the best possible outcome. It might be obvious if your child is struggling with speaking, but if you’re unsure, our complete guide to speech therapy can help you determine if your child needs this type of therapy.
