Signs to Watch For

If you're noticing some of these in your child, an evaluation can help clarify what's going on.

Sensory sensitivities or sensory-seeking behaviors that affect daily life
Communication that's different from peers — late talking, scripted language, or social communication challenges
Strong preferences for routine and difficulty with transitions
Repetitive movements (hand flapping, rocking, spinning) that may be helpful for regulation
Intense interests that consume attention and conversation
Differences in how your child plays, makes friends, or interacts with adults

Frequently Asked Questions — Glendale Heights Families

My Glendale Heights child was just diagnosed with autism. What now?

First — take a breath. A diagnosis doesn't change who your child is, but it does open doors to support. We recommend starting with a comprehensive OT and/or speech evaluation to identify your child's specific needs. From there, we build a plan that honors their strengths and addresses their challenges. There's no rush; right care matters more than fast care.

Will my insurance cover therapy for autism?

Illinois has strong autism coverage mandates. Most BCBS IL PPO and Aetna Commercial plans cover OT and speech therapy for autistic children. We help you verify benefits before starting and provide everything you need for insurance authorization.
