Overview
Autism therapy and services in Houston
Serving children ages 0–21 across Houston, Austin, and the broader Texas area, Spirit ABA delivers applied behavior analysis through in-home visits, school collaboration, and telehealth — all under BCBA oversight. Programs are individually designed around each child's goals and include parent training, social skills groups, and autism evaluation alongside core ABA services. The organization operates across six states, so families relocating within that network can expect continuity.
Best for
Families who need flexible delivery — particularly in-home or school-based ABA — and want their provider to handle insurance verification and authorization rather than managing it themselves.
Their approach
Every treatment plan starts from a BCBA home assessment and targets each child's specific communication, behavior, and daily living goals using individualized ABA methods including verbal behavior techniques, positive reinforcement, and AAC supports when needed. Parents receive ongoing coaching so strategies carry over between sessions.
What to expect
After an initial consultation, Spirit ABA's intake team verifies insurance benefits within 24–48 hours and handles all prior-authorization coordination before the first in-home BCBA assessment takes place. Out-of-pocket costs are explained upfront with no hidden fees.
