Speech Therapy for Children in Hyderabad
TheraPeace provides paediatric speech and language therapy at our centre in Habsiguda, East Hyderabad, led by a senior speech therapist working within a multidisciplinary team. A child who is not talking is not always a "speech problem" in isolation; sometimes hearing, attention or sensory factors are involved, which is exactly why speech therapy inside a coordinated team beats a standalone clinic.
When to consider a speech assessment
No first words by around 15 to 18 months
Very few words or no two-word phrases by age two
Speech that family understands but outsiders do not
Difficulty following simple instructions
Stammering that persists or distresses the child
A child who stopped using words they previously had
The most expensive advice in paediatrics is "wait, boys talk late." Some do. The assessment tells you whether yours is one of them; guessing does not.
What the assessment covers
We look at both speech and language, plus play, attention and social communication. If hearing has not been tested, we will recommend an audiology evaluation first or alongside, because therapy built on an undetected hearing issue wastes everyone's time.
How therapy runs
Sessions are individual, goal-based and built around play at younger ages. Parents are involved on purpose: you leave each phase knowing exactly what to do between sessions. Progress is reviewed against written goals.

Common questions
My child is two and not talking. Is that a delay?
By two, most children use two-word combinations. If yours is not, an assessment is reasonable now rather than at three.
Does growing up with two or three languages cause speech delay?
No. Multilingual children may mix languages while learning, which is normal. A delay across all the child's languages should be assessed.
How many sessions per week does my child need?
It depends on the assessment findings. We recommend a frequency with reasons, you decide, and the review schedule tells us both whether it is working.
