Autism

Autism is a lifeloing developmental condition that affects how a person communicates to other people. It also affects how they make sense of the world around them.

Autism affects four major areas of development:

  • Language and communication
  • Social interaction
  • Thinking and behavior
  • Sensory processing
Asperger’s is a form of autism; they tend to have fewer problems with speech, but may still have difficulties with understanding and processing language.

How we can help?

  • Treatment to improve articulation of individual sounds and production of sound patterns. This includes demonstrating how to produce the sound correctly, learning to recognize which sounds are correct and incorrect, and practicing sounds in different words.
  • Phonological process treatment involves teaching the rules of speech to help them say words correctly.
