Speech therapy for individuals with intellectual disabilities, often referred to as mental retardation, focuses on enhancing communication skills tailored to their specific needs. Procedures may include activities that improve expressive and receptive language, such as using visual aids, engaging in structured conversations, and practicing social communication skills. Therapists also utilize play-based methods to promote language development and may incorporate alternative communication systems, like sign language or communication devices, to support individuals who have significant speech challenges. The goal is to foster effective communication in everyday situations while building confidence and social interaction skills.
