Overview
Autism therapy and services in Katy
Ten years ago, speech-language pathologist Marcela Padilla opened this clinic to give Houston-area families a place where children could build communication skills in a warm, relationship-centered setting. Across two locations — Katy and Houston's Westview corridor — the team handles speech disorders, language delays, autism support, fluency, aural habilitation, and occupational therapy, with teletherapy rounding out access options. About 75 licensed professionals collaborate across Texas to support pediatric care and early developmental detection. The practice has also extended free therapy to some families without insurance.
Best for
Katy and Houston families with children who need speech-language or occupational therapy and want clinicians who actively involve parents in every session.
Their approach
Every therapist here works within the DIR framework, using Floortime as the hands-on core — getting on the floor with the child and caregiver together to observe interests, build back-and-forth interaction, and set goals that grow from each child's actual strengths. Caregivers aren't observers; they're taught to carry the same strategies home.
What to expect
Reach the team by phone at (832) 980-7061 or email info@legacysps.com; the clinic is open extended hours Monday through Thursday and holds Saturday morning appointments. No insurance panel was listed on the site, so ask directly about coverage when you call.
