Overview

Autism therapy and services in McKinney

Located on McDermott Rd in Plano, this Accel Therapies clinic delivers ABA therapy for children with autism through three delivery formats: sessions at the center, in the child's home, or at school. The team also runs telehealth autism diagnostic evaluations, returning a full report within seven days. Families across Collin County — McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Little Elm, and Plano — have access to care.

Best for

Parents in the Plano and McKinney corridor who want a single provider for both an autism diagnosis and follow-on ABA therapy, with flexibility across center, home, and school settings.

Their approach

Sessions are built around the child's lead — skills are practiced through play and natural interaction rather than drill-based compliance routines, with BCBAs guiding each individualized plan. Caregiver training is woven into the program so parents can reinforce goals between sessions.

What to expect

Contact the team to start an enrollment inquiry; they verify insurance coverage and manage authorizations with Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Blue Cross (pending) so families don't have to navigate that process alone.
