The Deaf Community in Texas


Austin's Texas School for the Deaf is the oldest continuously operating public school in the state, and it sits at the center of one of America's great Deaf communities. Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, San Antonio, and the Rio Grande Valley each add their own Deaf cultures — including a large Deaf Latino community. Texas is huge; with telehealth, so is your access.


How Online ASL Therapy Works


Starting is easy. Contact us, tell us a little about what you're looking for, and we'll pair you with one of our therapists licensed in Texas. Every session takes place on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform — no apps to figure out, no commute, no interpreter in the middle.


Insurance & Costs


Coverage shouldn't be a mystery. We work with most major commercial plans and Medicare, and offer single-case agreements (SCAs) when we're not already paneled with your plan. Our team confirms your benefits before your first appointment and explains everything plainly.


Why Deaf Clients in Texas Choose My Deaf Therapy


With the country's largest team of ASL-fluent therapists, we match Texas clients by specialty, style, and identity — not just availability. And every clinician seeing clients here holds a Texas license, which you can confirm on the state's free license lookup. Ethics aren't a feature; they're the foundation.
