Specialized communication therapy for children with ASD. Evidence-based approaches. Insurance accepted.
No obligation. Takes 2 minutes.
Every child with autism is different. Here are common communication signs parents notice.
Your child may not be using words yet, or uses very few. 40-70% of children with autism experience language delays.
Your child repeats phrases from shows, books, or conversations instead of creating their own sentences.
Trouble taking turns in conversation, staying on topic, or understanding what other people mean.
Your child avoids eye contact during communication, making it harder to connect with others.
Difficulty reading facial expressions, tone of voice, or understanding sarcasm and jokes.
Meltdowns or shutdowns that happen because your child can't express what they want or need.
We use proven methods tailored to each child's unique needs and strengths.
Augmentative & Alternative Communication — devices, apps, and picture systems that give your child a voice. Research shows AAC does NOT prevent speech.
Picture Exchange Communication System — teaches your child to communicate using pictures, building toward spoken language.
Building skills for conversation, turn-taking, understanding emotions, and connecting with peers.
Teaching the "rules" of social language — how to greet, ask for help, and navigate everyday interactions.
Structured, compassionate, and built around your child's interests.
"Our son was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 4. The first services we received was speech therapy as he was unable to express himself. We were lucky enough to have been paired with Stacey. Our son has been in speech therapy for almost a year now and has improved so much. He is always excited to go see Mrs. Stacey. We are forever grateful."— Lopez Family, Dixon, CA
"STC helped me ease my daughter into attending sessions independently instead of needing me to accompany her to every session, which has given her more confidence. My daughter looks forward to her therapy every week. We've experienced other speech therapy service providers and STC is by far our favorite. It feels like a second home."— Ann & Rose, Vacaville, CA
40-70% of children with autism experience language delays. Speech therapy helps with spoken language, understanding, social communication, and alternative communication methods. Even nonverbal children benefit significantly.
AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) includes picture boards, devices, and apps that help children communicate. Research consistently shows AAC does NOT prevent speech development — it actually supports it by reducing frustration and building language skills.
We use evidence-based approaches including AAC, PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System), social communication training, and naturalistic language strategies. Every child's plan is individualized.
Yes. We accept North Bay Regional Center for children ages 0-3, along with Sutter HMO, Kaiser, Cigna, Blue Shield PPO, and Western Health Advantage.
Frequency depends on your child's needs. Many children with ASD benefit from 2-3 sessions per week, especially in the early years. We'll recommend the right frequency after a thorough evaluation.
Whether your child uses words, pictures, or a device — we'll help them find their voice.
