Long Island Speech and Myofunctional Therapy | Farmingville

At Long Island Speech and Myofunctional Therapy, we understand how important it is to identify and address communication difficulties in children. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, it’s likely a good idea to have them assessed. Speech therapy can help autistic children learn important communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. It’s important to start speech therapy as early as possible, as there’s a critical period for language development. Signs that your child may need speech therapy include difficulty speaking, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all. To learn more about speech therapy, check out our comprehensive guide.
