At TYAP, we offer additional services to support you and your child in any areas that you may need. We are proud to be able to lend our experience and expertise to the success of your journey.
The TYAP Day Treatment Center provides each child with individualized programs, based on his or her specific needs. A treatment team, including the Clinical Director, Case Supervisor, and Behavior Therapists are assigned to work with each child daily.
For families where location is a problem (e.g. out of the Houston area), parent directed programs are a great option. Under our careful support and supervision, parents can recruit and manage their own teams composed of local individuals, typically consisting of 3-5 therapists.
TYAP is available to consult on outside autism behavior services and ABA. Our consulting services include reviews of diagnostic evaluation reports, treatment plans, and treatment implementation. We are happy to lend our expertise to helping you understand your child’s diagnosis and the details of what to expect from treatment in terms of short-term and long-term progress.
TYAP can assist with appropriate school selection, school ARDs, independent functional behavior analysis (FBA), behavior intervention plans (BIPs), school transitions, and shadowing. We know that researching and choosing the right educational environment for your child with ASD or other developmental difficulties can be overwhelming. As a parent, you want to make the best possible choice for your child.
Comprehensive psychological evaluations for diagnostic and treatment response monitoring are available through TYAP. More targeted evaluations, such as Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Specific Learning Disability, and Emotional Disturbance evaluations are also available.
Young children can sometimes regress in functioning due to seizures or other conditions. After the debilitating condition has been addressed, language, neurological, and motor functioning can often be restored through ABA rehabilitation methods as part of our autism behavior services.

Family counseling is available to help siblings and parents learn how to better communicate with each other and the child through treatment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is also provided for higher-functioning children who would benefit from additional help in dealing with anxiety stemming from changes in routine or specific social problems.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other related developmental disorders can affect children’s communication and language skills in many different ways. Some children on the spectrum struggle to recognize social cues, while others don’t use verbal communication at all.
For most children, eating is a routine part of each day; however some children experience feeding issues that go beyond common pickiness. The complexities that arise can create stress not only for the child, but for the entire family. TYAP offers individualized feeding programs supervised by a licensed speech pathologist.
Social skills groups are small groups of similar-aged clients who learn social-based skills (such as active listening, perspective taking, and conflict resolution) from trained group facilitators.
