At MeBe San Diego | Carlsbad, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended since they often have difficulty with social communication. However, even if your child is very verbal, they may still need to work on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a key element of early intervention for autistic children and can be critical in developing language skills, so it is important to consider it if there are any delays. If your child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, speech therapy might be beneficial for them.
