Overview
Occupational Therapy for autism in Dallas
Dallas families turn to this pediatric OT and PT practice, known locally as SPOTS, when a child is working through sensory processing, motor, or handwriting challenges. Sessions run one-on-one and play-based out of its own sensory motor gym in the Hillcrest/LBJ Freeway area, with extra gym space at two area private schools. Treatment plans stretch from self-help routines to visual-perceptual and feeding work, shaped around each child's evaluation.
Best for
Good match for parents juggling sensory, coordination, or handwriting concerns who'd rather get OT and PT under one roof.
Their approach
Therapists combine sensory integration work with Interactive Metronome training in one-on-one, play-based sessions, and build a few minutes of parent coaching into the end of each visit.
What to expect
A first visit starts with a parent questionnaire and roughly 90 minutes of standardized testing and observation, then a written report and a parent conference to set goals; several insurance plans are accepted in-network.
