Overview

Speech Therapy for autism in Sugar Land

A pediatric speech-language practice owned and directed by Melody C. Haryanto (M.A., CCC-SLP, ASDCS), serving Fort Bend County families from clinic locations in Sugar Land and Richmond, TX. The team—five credentialed CCC-SLPs and fourteen SLPAs—covers speech-language evaluations, ongoing individual therapy, and partnered occupational therapy. Therapists travel to homes, daycares, preschools, and ABA centers in addition to seeing kids in-office.

Best for

Fort Bend County families looking for a large, multi-therapist pediatric speech practice with flexible location options, including children with autism, AAC needs, or limited after-school availability.

Their approach

Play-based sessions are shaped around each child's individual goals—whether that means working on articulation, building language, supporting social communication, or introducing an AAC system for children who use pictures or devices to communicate. Two of the supervising SLPs hold the Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS) credential, signaling specific training for autistic clients.

What to expect

Getting started means scheduling a speech-language evaluation ($350, held at the Richmond office, roughly one hour); a written report typically arrives within two weeks, after which authorizations are obtained and therapy scheduling begins. After-school slots are competitive—specific times cannot be confirmed until after the evaluation, and families may join a waitlist for preferred hours. In-clinic therapy runs $75 per 30-minute session; in-home visits are $90 (includes a travel fee).
