I have son with severe autism, non verbal and low functioning and found any method of speech or communication helped to get rid of his challenging behaviour - they used picture(PEC) and photos with his speech therapy which really helped - communication is what he wanted the most!

We did ABA with my Son, which was great for him. It’s pretty intensive but worked brilliantly for my son. I know that PECs as Indieabc said, is of great benefit to those with speech difficulties. Going back to ABA, there a lot in the internet about it if you want to find out more.
