Overview

Autism therapy and services in Frisco

Tucked off Warren Parkway in Frisco, Cole Health runs a pediatric clinic that spans ABA therapy (marketed as Cole Academy), speech-language therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy — all under one roof with a shared clinical team. Part of a 24-location network reaching Texas, North Carolina, Washington State, and Washington DC, the practice has been treating children with autism and developmental differences for over a decade. Medicaid and most major commercial plans are accepted at the Frisco site.

Best for

North Dallas families who want a single practice where a child with autism or developmental delays can access ABA alongside speech, OT, and PT — particularly those in Frisco, Plano, Prosper, Allen, or McKinney.

Their approach

ABA sessions at Cole Academy pair individualized behavior strategies with close coordination from the in-house speech and OT clinicians, so goals carry across disciplines rather than staying siloed. Parent involvement is woven into the model — therapists actively coach families on techniques to practice between visits.

What to expect

Appointment requests go through an online form or a direct call to the Frisco clinic; the front office accepts Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Humana, Ambetter, Tricare, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicaid. Both in-clinic and telehealth sessions are available, giving families flexibility when in-person visits are hard to schedule.
