Overview
Autism therapy and services in Kingwood
An independently owned early-intervention clinic tucked inside a Kingwood neighborhood, this practice runs ABA, speech, and occupational therapy under a single roof for children aged 18 months to six years. BCBAs, SLPs, and OTs share the same building and co-develop each child's treatment plan rather than operating in separate silos. The clinic is located at 611 Rockmead Drive in Kingwood and draws families from Humble, Porter, and Atascocita as well.
Best for
Young children between 18 months and six years whose families want ABA, speech, and occupational therapy coordinated through one integrated clinic rather than juggling multiple providers.
Their approach
All three disciplines — ABA, speech, and OT — jointly build and revisit each treatment plan. ABA sessions use positive reinforcement throughout, and a BCBA works directly with parents so skills practiced at the clinic carry over at home.
What to expect
After an initial visit and tour, a BCBA leads a formal assessment using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales; SLP and OT evaluations may happen the same day or follow once services begin. The team submits for insurance authorization and will handle any denial appeals before therapy starts.
