How to Tell If Your Child Needs Speech Therapy
Not sure if your child’s speech is on track? Here are five signs it might be time to consider speech therapy—and how early support can make a big difference.
Worried your child might be falling behind in communication? You’re not alone. Many parents wonder if their child’s speech or language development is on track—or if it’s time to get support.
Here are some signs to look for:
Limited vocabulary for their age
Difficulty combining words into sentences
Struggles to follow directions or answer questions
Frequent frustration when trying to communicate
Speech that’s hard for others to understand
Early intervention matters. A speech delay doesn't always mean a long-term issue—but the earlier it's addressed, the better the outcome.
At The SLP Therapy Lab, we offer no-pressure consultations to assess where your child stands and what support (if any) might help.
