There is no single right age to start therapy, and your child is very unlikely to be too young or too old. Earlier support works with the brain's natural ability to learn, so the best time is as soon as you notice a concern — yet older children gain too. The key is not to wait on a worry: a clinician-led developmental check gives clarity at any age.
