Autism Spectrum Therapies | Pleasanton

At Autism Spectrum Therapies in Pleasanton, we understand how important it is to identify if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is having difficulty with social communication, speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children. Speech therapy helps children learn effective ways to communicate, and can help them grow into more independent and confident individuals. It can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy, but signs to look out for include: being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all.
