Overview

Autism therapy and services in Katy

Founded in 2000 by three of the country's earliest BCBAs, this Texas-based network now spans 100+ centers across six states — including a Katy location on Cinco Village Center Blvd. The Katy center delivers ABA therapy, autism diagnostic evaluations, and an after-school social skills program for children from 18 months through age 10. Every treatment plan is built by a BCBA and carried out by a Registered Behavior Technician, with parent training woven throughout.

Best for

Young autistic children (18 months to 10 years) in Katy, Cinco Ranch, and the west Houston corridor whose families want intensive center-based ABA paired with wide insurance coverage and hands-on parent coaching.

Their approach

Each child receives 1:1 ABA programming at 20–40 hours per week, designed by a BCBA using evidence-based methods and ongoing data review. Family culture and values are folded into treatment goals, and parents receive regular feedback to carry strategies into daily life.

What to expect

Reach out to the intake team for a same-business-day callback, or schedule an autism evaluation directly — most major insurance plans are accepted and authorization support is provided. The center is open Monday through Friday, 8 am to 6 pm.

Common questions about Behavioral Innovations

Does Behavioral Innovations offer in-home or center-based ABA therapy?

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

How many hours of ABA therapy does Behavioral Innovations provide?

Programs typically run 20–40 hours per week, with the exact plan set by your child's BCBA after an initial assessment. Comprehensive programs address several developmental areas at once, while focused programs target specific skills.

Is ABA therapy covered by insurance in Texas?

In Texas, many commercial health plans and Texas Medicaid cover ABA therapy for children with an autism diagnosis. A confirmed diagnosis is required for coverage, which is why many families begin with an evaluation — Behavioral Innovations can help you confirm your benefits first.

Will I receive a report I can share with my child's school?

Yes — Behavioral Innovations provides a formal written evaluation report for your child's school and care team. That documentation can support IEP or 504 requests at school.

What insurance does Behavioral Innovations accept?

Behavioral Innovations works with plans including Optum, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Humana, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, among others. If your plan isn't listed it's still worth asking — provider networks change often, so confirm your specific plan when you reach out.

Does Behavioral Innovations accept Medicaid in Texas?

Yes — Behavioral Innovations accepts Texas Medicaid. Some plans require a referral or prior authorization first, and if you're still applying, ask about self-pay or sliding-scale options in the meantime.

What ages does Behavioral Innovations serve?

Behavioral Innovations serves ages 18 months – 10 years. If your child is near the edge of that range, it's worth reaching out — providers often make case-by-case decisions.
