Does my child have a speech delay?

4/9/2016

I can't tell you how many parents have asked me questions like this.... "my 3 year old isn't talking very much.... do you think she needs speech therapy?" or " my son can't pronounce his sounds... does he need speech therapy?" 

After 18 years in this field I can confidently say that all children do not acquire speech and language in exactly the same way or at the same pace.  But years of research have demonstrated that, although there is a very wide range of "typical" development, we do have some very clear guidelines to help parents determine whether they should seek the expertise of a qualified Speech Language Pathologist.  That is the very reason The American Speech Language Hearing Association began the Identify The Signs Campaign to help raise awareness of the early warning signs of communication disorders.

Does your child have any warning signs of a communication disorder?

My son has been having a hard time learning how to speak. I didn't realize that this could be a sign of some different issues! It would be a good idea for me to take him to a doctor to see what could be wrong.

I like that this post shared that when looking for a speech therapist, it is important for us to consider the right therapy. It makes sense for us to consider hiring the right therapist as it will impact the quality. I will definitely keep this information in mind.
