Minnetonka Pediatric Therapy

At Minnetonka Pediatric Therapy, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. It is almost always recommended for autistic children due to the difficulty many of them have 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 a conversation, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention is key to teaching language and communication skills, and speech therapy is a great place to start. If your child is very quiet, only says a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, they may benefit from speech therapy. To help you make an informed decision, we have created a complete guide for everything you need to know about speech therapy. Visit our website for more information.
