Speech Therapy for Autism in Greeley: Treatment, Not In-House Diagnosis
We treat speech, language, AAC, and social communication for children with autism. We refer for autism testing. We do not run a psychologist-staffed diagnostic clinic.
Direct answer: Children with autism — or children whose profiles are still being sorted — can receive speech, language, AAC, and social-pragmatic therapy at Front Range Speech Therapy in Greeley. We do not complete an autism diagnosis in this clinic because we do not have psychologists on staff. We refer families for formal autism evaluations and still treat communication in the meantime.
Diagnosis and treatment are different doors
A diagnostic letter can unlock school eligibility and some benefits. It is not the on-ramp to being understood. If your child cannot request, protest, or share with speech, signs, or a device, therapy belongs now. Waiting on a 12-month psychology waitlist without communication support is a lost year.
If testing is what you need, start at screening and referrals and our guide to getting an autism evaluation in Northern Colorado. If communication is what you need, see social-pragmatic language and AAC.
What autism-related therapy looks like here
- AAC evaluation and implementation when speech is not enough
- Social communication: conversation, flexibility, peer language
- Receptive and expressive language that actually transfers to home and school
- Parent coaching so strategies are not clinic-only tricks
Greeley-area families we see
Greeley, Evans, Windsor, Johnstown, Loveland, and Fort Collins families use the same clinic. We will not advertise an autism diagnostic program we do not run. We will treat the child in front of us.
Will you see my child if they do not have an autism diagnosis yet?
Yes, when speech, language, AAC, or social communication is the need. Screening helps us treat the right thing and know when to refer.
Do you replace a developmental pediatrician or psychologist?
No. Those clinicians complete medical and psychological diagnoses. We complete communication evaluation and therapy, then hand off testing questions with a referral.
