Overview

Autism therapy and services in Katy

Founded in 2022 by Dr. Joey Davies, this Katy, TX center brings speech therapy, occupational therapy, feeding therapy, and audiology together in a single location. Pediatric care is the core focus — from newborn hearing screenings through school-age speech and OT — while audiology extends to adults as well. An on-site early education program, the Davies Development Center, enrolls children ages 12 months to five years whose development has been shaped by hearing loss or speech delays.

Best for

Katy-area families who want all of their child's communication, hearing, and therapy needs addressed at one practice — particularly those navigating hearing loss, auditory processing disorder, or speech and feeding challenges.

Their approach

Each child's plan is built individually, and parents are brought in as active participants at every stage rather than as observers. Speech, OT, and audiology clinicians coordinate closely, and children enrolled in the Development Center receive therapeutic support embedded in their school day.

What to expect

A free 15-minute phone consultation is available for families who are unsure where to start; call (281) 717-4884 to get matched with the right evaluation — therapy, hearing testing, or a Development Center tour.
