One-on-one ABA therapy in your home and at your child’s school in Amarillo, with a BCBA-supervised plan built around your child.
Amarillo is the beating heart of the Texas Panhandle — a proud, self-reliant city known for its wide-open skies, strong ranching heritage, and deeply connected community. For families in Amarillo raising a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the city's geographic distance from major Texas metros creates a very real barrier to accessing quality autism care. Clinic-based therapy providers in larger cities can be hours away. Guidepost ABA eliminates that barrier entirely. We deliver evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy directly to your home and your child's school throughout Amarillo — with no waitlist and immediate access to care.
Amarillo is the sixteenth most populated city in Texas, with approximately 205,130 residents. Children under age 18 make up approximately 26.0% of Amarillo's population — an estimated 53,300+ children living in the city today.
Based on the CDC's 2025 national prevalence rate of 1 in 31 children with ASD, an estimated 1,720+ children in Amarillo may be living with autism spectrum disorder.
Amarillo's largest racial and ethnic groups are White (51%), Hispanic (34.2%), and Black (7.1%). Approximately 19% of Amarillo residents speak Spanish at home, making bilingual autism care an important part of serving this community well. CDC data confirms that Hispanic children are being diagnosed with ASD at higher rates than ever before.
Amarillo ISD is the primary school district, serving 29,626 students as of the 2023–2024 school year. Canyon ISD and River Road ISD also serve families in the surrounding communities. While each district provides special education services, individualized in-home ABA therapy goes far beyond what school staff can offer alone.
Amarillo's distance from major therapy centers in Dallas, Houston, and Austin makes in-home care not just a convenience but a necessity. Children who begin ABA therapy between 18 months and 5 years of age show the most significant long-term developmental gains. Boys are diagnosed with ASD at approximately 3.4 times the rate of girls nationally.
