Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
At Ponte Vedra Speech, Language, and Learning, we know that early treatment for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder can help create lasting differences.
Please speak to your pediatrician if you notice that your child has difficulties with:
- Back-and-forth social interactions, including failure to respond to you when you call for his/ her attention
- Difficulties with non-verbal communication including eye-contact, gestures, and facial expressions
- Difficulties making or maintaining friendships
- Repetitious behaviors such as repeated motor movements or speech or lining toys up
- Inflexibility (insists on same food every day, for example)
- Strong fixation on a particular object
- Is hyper- or hypo- sensitive to sensory experiences.
