Hearing and Speech Center of Florida

At the Hearing and Speech Center of Florida, we understand how important it is to recognize when a child needs speech therapy, and we are here to help. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is verbally advanced, they may still need help with communication skills like responding to questions, changing conversations topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Early intervention is key to language development, and our team of professionals can help your child learn how to effectively communicate, which will help them become more independent and confident. If your child is quiet, only says a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, it may be time to consider speech therapy. We offer a complete guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy, so please reach out to us today for more information.

At the Hearing and Speech Center of Florida, our speech therapists can help your child develop their communication skills in a variety of ways. Through our specialized programs and services, we can provide your child with the tools they need to effectively communicate with others. Our speech therapists can help your child with nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings clearly, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. We also specialize in helping children with stuttering, as well as with Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Our goal is to provide your child with the skills they need to communicate effectively in all environments.
