Overview
Speech Therapy for autism in McKinney
A McKinney family opened this speech-language practice in 2008, and it still runs on a home-visit model across the Dallas-Fort Worth area rather than a single storefront clinic. Clinicians see kids, teens, and adults for articulation, language, voice, stuttering, and feeding or swallowing concerns, and autism is explicitly among the diagnoses they work with. Founder Melinda Levens holds her CCC-SLP and built the practice around one-on-one, in-home sessions instead of a waiting-room model.
Best for
Good fit for DFW parents who would rather have a therapist come to the house than bring a child to an unfamiliar office every week.
Their approach
Sessions blend classic speech-language pathology with vocal coaching techniques, and each plan starts from a consultation and assessment rather than a one-size treatment track.
What to expect
A first call is free, the office keeps weekday hours plus Saturday mornings, and the practice bills Medicaid, Medicare, Aetna, Blue Cross, and Parkland along with card payments.
