Overview

Speech Therapy for autism in McKinney

A Prosper-based speech-language practice founded by a mother who once ran her own son's home autism program, this team now works with kids and adults across the Metroplex. Sessions blend in-clinic visits, daycare and Montessori partnerships, and telehealth reaching families anywhere in Texas. Care spans articulation, language, feeding, AAC device support, and social skills groups, with several clinicians treating autism, ADHD, and other developmental needs. Multilingual therapy is available in English, Urdu, and Hindi.

Best for

Best suited to families wanting a bilingual-friendly SLP practice for a child with autism, ADHD, or a feeding or communication delay, including those who prefer virtual sessions.

Their approach

Treatment plans are built around each person's diagnosis and communication profile, drawing on AAC training, feeding therapy techniques, and parent coaching so skills carry over at home.

What to expect

A free phone consultation kicks off the process, followed by roughly 30-minute sessions adjusted to each client's needs, with a reply to the intake form within one to three business days. The practice bills Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, TriWest, Humana TRICARE West, Aetna, Wellpoint Medicaid, Oscar Health, Baylor Scott & White, and Superior Healthcare, and offers private-pay options for families whose plans don't fit.
