The Center for Precious Minds | Miami Lakes

At The Center for Precious Minds in Miami Lakes, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children as they often have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they could benefit from learning communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, using gestures, and understanding body language. Speech therapy is a cornerstone of early intervention for autistic children and is a critical part of language development. Learning effective communication skills can help your child become more independent and confident. If your child is very quiet, has difficulty speaking, or doesn’t speak at all, it may be time to consider speech therapy. Our complete guide to speech therapy can help you make the best decision for your child.
