✨ About Therapy Matters

For over 20 years, Therapy Matters has been dedicated to helping children with developmental delays, including those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), thrive at home and in their communities. Founded by Kylee, an Occupational Therapist with a heart for serving children in underserved communities, our Chandler, AZ clinic offers an integrated approach to therapy, combining Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), speech, occupational, and physical therapies, alongside home-based services like respite, habilitation, and attendant care. After Kylee’s passing in 2012, her husband founded Kylee’s Angels to carry forward her mission of compassionate, client-centered care.

Today, we honor her legacy by creating a space where clinicians are supported, families feel heard, and children reach their full potential through tailored, evidence-based interventions. At Therapy Matters, we make a lasting impact—one child, one family, and one community at a time. Join our growing team and be part of a mission-driven organization that values collaboration, growth, and heart.
