Westside Children's Therapy | Willowbrook

At Westside Children’s Therapy in Willowbrook, we understand the importance of communication and speech development in children. We are here to provide you with the support and guidance you need to determine if your child requires speech therapy. If you notice any of the following issues with your child, it is a good idea to consider speech therapy: difficulty responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, changing conversation topics, using gestures, understanding other people’s body language, and/or being very quiet or not speaking at all. Early intervention is key to language development and Westside Children’s Therapy can help your child grow into a more confident and independent individual.
