Overview

Autism therapy and services in Missouri City

Two clinics tucked into the southwest Houston suburbs — one in Missouri City, one in Katy — give families a single destination for speech-language therapy, occupational therapy, feeding therapy, and orofacial myofunctional therapy. Kids and adults are both welcome across all severity levels, and therapists can travel to nearby private schools, ABA centers, and daycares within 3 miles of each office.

Best for

Families in Fort Bend County and Katy who want speech and OT services together, especially those navigating feeding challenges or myofunctional concerns alongside speech delays.

Their approach

Sessions are built around functional independence, weaving together sensory integration, motor planning, and language work rather than treating each domain in isolation. Before any commitment, a free 15-minute consultation with a therapist is on offer.

What to expect

Call the Missouri City line at 281-403-2600 or the Katy clinic at 281-579-1515 to get started; intake is handled by a dedicated coordinator. The center accepts many insurance plans, out-of-network private insurance, and private-pay arrangements.
