San Diego Regional Center | Imperial

At San Diego Regional Center| Imperial, we understand how important it is to identify if your child needs speech therapy. As experts in early intervention, we can help you determine if your child is having difficulty with social communication, responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is often recommended for children diagnosed with autism since it can help them develop the language and communication skills they need to become more independent and confident. Our guide to speech therapy can help you understand if your child needs help, and how to find the right resources for them. With the right support and intervention, your child can learn the skills they need to thrive.

At San Diego Regional Center | Imperial, our speech therapists specialize in helping children communicate effectively in all environments.
