Overview
Autism therapy and services in Fort Worth
Families in Fort Worth built this practice: two BCBAs who met through a church ministry for kids with special needs opened Lighthouse in 2021, and it's grown to two locations since. Naturalistic, one-on-one ABA sits at the core, run by a sizable roster of behavior analysts and technicians, and the clinic keeps its speech, occupational, and music support in-house so parents aren't driving all over town for separate appointments. Kids can be seen in the clinic, at their house, out in the community, or through sessions built around school, and parent training is baked into the plan rather than an add-on.
Best for
A good fit for parents who want ABA plus speech and OT handled by one team, with sessions that can happen in the clinic, at home, through school, or out in the community.
Their approach
Every plan starts from an individual assessment rather than a set formula, and because speech and OT sit under the same roof as ABA, the different therapists can actually compare notes and keep a child's progress moving the same direction.
What to expect
Getting started means a tour first, then insurance cards and diagnostic paperwork before a spot opens up on the waitlist; from there a two-hour assessment kicks things off, and most families are looking at roughly a month's wait depending on their child's needs.
