Overview
Autism therapy and services in Cypress
Tucked into the Katy and Cypress suburbs west of Houston, this pediatric practice delivers speech, occupational, and feeding therapy for children of all ages across two clinic sites. Therapists also make the trip out to ABA centers throughout North and West Houston, so kids who are already in intensive programming can get their therapy services in one place. Every discipline at the practice shares a play-first philosophy, and families are kept in the loop from evaluation through discharge.
Best for
Children in the Katy, Cypress, or North/West Houston corridor who need speech, OT, or feeding support — particularly those who are already enrolled at an ABA center and want coordinated in-center services.
Their approach
Regulation comes before skill-building here: every session opens with movement so the child is calm and ready before structured activities begin. For feeding challenges, therapists draw on the SOS Approach to Feeding alongside other evidence-based protocols, and cross-discipline collaboration between the speech and OT teams is built into how cases are managed.
What to expect
The first visit is a full evaluation — parent interview, naturalistic observation, and standardized assessments — before any goals are set; a pediatrician referral can be faxed in, though families can also self-refer. A 24-hour cancellation notice is required, and a $50 fee applies to late cancellations or no-shows (not covered by insurance).
