Does my child need therapy?

So many parents come to me telling me what their child can or can't say, what sounds they can or can't produce, and ask "does my child need speech therapy?" In an effort to save me some time, and to make sure I answer questions comprehensively, I have created a portion of my blog dedicated to answering these questions.

Please see my Developmental Milestones page to see what a child should be doing at each age in the areas of speech and language. This should be used a guideline only and not a checklist.

You can also see my Does My Child Need Speech Therapy? page to find out how and where you can receive a screener or speech and language evaluation to determine if your child needs therapy.

Good luck in your endeavors and please let me know if you have any additional questions!
