Overview

Autism therapy and services in Plano

Tucked off McDermott Rd in Plano, this ABA center from Accel Therapies runs three parallel delivery tracks — sessions at the clinic, in a child's home, or inside their school — so families in Collin County and across North DFW can access care wherever it fits best. BCBAs design individualized plans targeting communication, social skills, behavior, and day-to-day independence, and the clinic also offers telehealth autism diagnostic evaluations with results returned within roughly a week. Caregiver training is woven into the program rather than treated as an add-on.

Best for

Plano-area families who need flexible ABA delivery options — center, home, or school — and want a team that actively trains caregivers and centers the child's experience rather than a compliance-first model.

Their approach

Sessions are built around assent-based, play-driven methods: skills emerge through joyful, motivating activities instead of rote drills, with BCBAs monitoring progress and adjusting goals alongside parents as co-decision-makers.

What to expect

Start with an inquiry online or by phone; the team verifies insurance coverage and handles prior authorizations before a BCBA conducts the intake assessment and builds a written treatment plan. Telehealth diagnostic evaluations use the ADOS-2 protocol, cost $1,200 (reduced rates available for financial hardship), and include superbill documentation for insurance reimbursement.
