Overview

ABA Therapy for autism in Houston

Two brands, one practice: PATH ABA runs under the Polestar ABA Therapy name and focuses entirely on children with Autism Spectrum Disorder from 18 months through age 18. Therapy is available at a center, in the family's home, or out in the community — whichever setting makes most sense for a given child and goal. The service menu covers individual ABA sessions, social skills groups, feeding therapy, communication building, adaptive self-care, play skills, and school readiness, with parent and family training woven throughout. Medicaid, United Healthcare, BCBS, Aetna, Molina, Community Health Choice, Superior Health Plan, Texas Children's Health Plan, and Optum are all accepted.

Best for

Houston-area families whose child is between 18 months and 18 years old and needs ABA therapy that can follow them across settings — center, home, and community — while billing Medicaid or one of the major Texas managed-care plans.

Their approach

Every treatment plan begins with direct behavioral observation and measurement to pinpoint what is driving a child's specific challenges. Intervention intensity is calibrated to each child, from lower-frequency support up to intensive behavioral intervention (IBI), and caregivers are built into the process as active partners rather than bystanders.

What to expect

Families start by requesting an assessment through the online form; the practice conducts ADOS-2 evaluations on-site at the center. With nine payers listed — including Medicaid — insurance coordination appears to be handled internally.

Common questions about PATH ABA

Does PATH ABA offer in-home or center-based ABA therapy?

PATH ABA provides ABA therapy in center, in-home and community settings in and around Houston. In-home suits families who want skills practiced in the child's own environment, while center-based offers a structured, distraction-light space.
