Overview
Autism therapy and services in Fort Worth
Speech, occupational, and feeding therapy for kids are the focus at this Dallas-Fort Worth practice, which has grown to 11 clinics over more than two decades in the community. Clinicians here work with children on autism, apraxia, ADHD and auditory processing differences, Down syndrome, and other developmental or neurological concerns. A clinical director runs day-to-day care at each site, and the speech-language pathology team includes several bilingual therapists as well as several trained in orofacial myofunctional therapy.
