Overview
Speech Therapy for autism in Cypress
A pediatric speech-language practice in Cypress (northwest Houston), serving children from infancy through early adulthood with evaluations and treatment across articulation, language, pragmatics, apraxia, fluency, and feeding/swallowing. The team also runs Happy Talk parent-child language classes for babies and toddlers up to age three. Insurance-friendly with seven in-network plans including TMHP Medicaid and Texas Children's Health Plan.
Best for
Houston-area families of children with social-communication differences, apraxia, or feeding challenges who want neurodiversity-affirming care and room for parents to be active participants in therapy.
Their approach
Therapy is play-based and built around the relationship between therapist and child — when kids feel regulated and safe, communication tends to follow. Clinicians draw on sensory-informed strategies (Inside Out Sensory Certificate Program training) and involve caregivers as partners throughout, sending families home with practical strategies after each session.
What to expect
New families start with a free 15–20 minute phone consultation, then move to a comprehensive evaluation covering parent interview, play-based observation, and both formal and informal assessments; a written report is shared and reviewed before any treatment begins. The clinic is open Monday–Thursday, 9 AM–7 PM, with select Saturday evaluation slots for families who need weekend availability.
