Autism Spectrum Disorders refers to a disability that is usually linked to a wide range of communication challenges. Autism can affect speech, language and social communication in many ways. Speech and language intervention for children with Autism typically focuses on articulation, verbal and non-verbal communication, comprehension of others intentions in a variety of social situations, initiating social communication, conversational turn-taking, developing relationships through communication, minimizing repetitive behaviors and playing with peers, as well as other areas of need.
Research has indicated early identification and intervention is a key factor in maximizing communication skills for a child with Autism. Intervention will involve a team of caregivers including parents, teachers, Speech-Language Pathologist, Pediatrician and possibly other professionals.

My husband and I are grateful to Cobblestone for everything they have done for our daughter Scarlett. We have had the pleasure of working with Lynn and it has been a life changing experience for our whole family. Scarlett has gained so much confidence in her abilities and we feel fortunate to have had this opportunity to work with them on her speech goals. We know that with their tools she will have a different level of learning than that of her peers. In addition, Jodie has been a delight to work with from getting us started to answering any questions we have in a timely manner. They treat you like part of the family and they truly care about your child.

We moved here last year and found Cobblestone to continue my then 4 year olds Apraxia therapy with Miss Samantha. Last week he had his last session. It’s been a wonderful year working with Samantha and Lynn and we are going to miss them so much. Samantha was a great therapist and worked so well with my son. Lynn is such a wonderful, kind, and caring woman and I truely enjoyed our afternoon chats. She runs her business so professionally, yet when you walk in the door, you feel like family. We had some issues with our insurance company and she worked so hard to get things fixed so that we didn’t have to deal with them ourselves.

We love Cobblestone! We have worked with several therapists over the past 3 years at Cobblestone. Each one has been easy to work with and adaptable to my sons needs. Due to Covid restrictions, we are seeing Kimberly remotely every week. I wasn't sure if remote therapy would be a great fit for my son, but she has made the transition extremely easy and engaging. He continues to work on and gain skills with every session. Kimberly is able to hold his attention for most of the session. Way to adapt Cobblestone! Thank you.
