Carolina Speech & Feeding Center | Statesville

At Carolina Speech & Feeding Center in Statesville, we understand that it can be difficult to determine if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is diagnosed with autism, speech therapy is 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 still need to work on communication skills, such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important focus in early intervention for autistic children and can help them become more independent and confident individuals. If your child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, it may be an indication that they need speech therapy.
