Speech Therapy for People With Developmental Disabilities

At Bliss, we understand the crucial role effective communication plays in a child’s life. Communication empowers us to share ideas, feelings, and connect with others. For children with developmental disabilities, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, and other intellectual disabilities, achieving these milestones may present unique challenges.

We understand the concern parents feel when their child doesn’t meet expected speech and language developmental milestones. Children with autism often encounter difficulties in both verbal and non-verbal communication. Some may struggle to speak at all, while others may have challenges interpreting body language and social cues. Our speech/language pathologists (SLPs) specialize in addressing these communication hurdles, helping children develop essential skills that enhance their quality of life.

Disorders
