Shandy Clinic | Pueblo South

At Shandy Clinic, we understand that it can be difficult to know when your child needs speech therapy. We recommend that speech therapy is almost always necessary for autistic children to help with social communication. This includes responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is also a key part of early intervention and language development, so it’s important to teach these skills as early as possible. If your child is having difficulty speaking, or is very quiet, they may need speech therapy. To help you determine if your child might need speech therapy, we have created a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know. Visit our website for more information.

At Shandy Clinic Pueblo South, we understand that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior. It utilizes principles that can help children and adults learn to improve their communication, social, and daily living skills. ABA therapy aims to teach helpful skills to promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. We provide a comprehensive guide to ABA therapy to help you better understand how it can help your loved one.
