  Speech-language therapy is recommended for almost everyone diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. This makes sense because most children with autism have impaired communication that requires assistance. Even those with high-functioning autism can benefit from speech-language therapy.

That professional may work in a private setting, a clinic, a school, or an institution, or as part of an educational team. They employ various tools and therapies, including toys and play-like treatment, as well as formal tests and spee...
