Autism Spectrum Disorder — Pediatric Therapy in Menifee
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often benefit from both occupational therapy and speech therapy. OT helps with sensory regulation, motor planning, and daily living skills. Speech therapy builds communication, social language, and functional expression.
How We Support Children with Autism
- • Sensory regulation strategies to prevent overload and meltdowns
- • AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) if needed
- • Social communication and peer interaction skills
- • Self-care routines (brushing teeth, dressing, toileting)
- • Play skills and joint attention
Coordinated OT + Speech Support
Many children with autism benefit from both OT and speech therapy working together. We coordinate goals so sensory regulation work supports communication, and communication goals are embedded in the activities your child finds most motivating. This integrated approach leads to faster, more meaningful progress.
