Yes, there can be speech delay without autism.
Impaired hearing or chronic hearing infections can result in speech delay. A lower than average IQ can result in speech delay. Another possible cause is a lack of oral interpersonal experiences (e.g. parents unavailable to spend time with the child such as when working long hours or one is extremely ill, mute parents, isolation due to a medical condition). Other conditions that can cause speech delay include tongue or other mouth problems, brain lesions, or seizures.
Autism is a disorder characterized by impaired social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior. While many people with autism do not develop enough natural speech to meet their needs, and though many develop speech later than normal, speech delay alone does not indicate autism.

How does speech therapy help a child with Autism?
A common mistake is to assume that speech therapy is the solution to Autism. Speech therapy certainly has it's place in prompting and refining a child's speech and vocalization but it takes many hours a week of intensive one-on-one work to teach the child with Autism compliance, new concepts, language and age-appropriate behavior. A child with Autism will probably see a speech therapist for 1 or 2 hours a week. It takes a lot more work to get a child with Autism ready for school and to ensure he succeeds at school once he gets there. Once your child is in school, it would be wise to continue the speech therapy sessions. Some schools have a speech therapist that works with the children at the school itself. =============================================================
