👋Today we celebrated the grand opening of our Eagan clinic. While our team has been serving children and families in the south metro for months, this was the moment to officially welcome the community and recognize the work happening inside these doors. From comprehensive diagnostic evaluations to individualized ABA therapy, our BCBAs, RBTs, and support staff are committed to delivering the clinical excellence Caravel families count on. Grateful to the partners, providers, and community members who joined us, and proud to continue expanding access to high-quality autism care across the Twin Cities.

About us
Caravel Autism Health delivers top quality center-based intensive, post-intensive, pre-intensive, and diagnostic evaluation services to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Caravel Autism Health emphasizes individualized goals based on proven, evidence-based treatment approaches - mainly Applied Behavior Analysis. We specialize in the delivery of Verbal Behavior Therapy, Lovaas, and interactive play approaches, matching the best approach (or combination of approaches) to the individual needs and learning style of the child. Our therapy team is managed by highly skilled, well-trained, and caring senior clinicians. We work one-on-one with children with Autism to first establish a fun, positive, and playful relationship. As children learn to cooperate, imitate, and attend to others, the focus turns to increasing other major skill areas including (but not limited to) language, socialization, play, academic, and self-help skills. Social play with peers and transitions into school environments are introduced and carefully managed as children are ready. Individualized goals are broken down into manageable components based on the child’s learning preference. This way the therapy approach remains positive while children experience success. Therapeutic effectiveness is continually monitored by measuring progress and assessing the amount of fun the child is having during therapy. The goal of our autism therapy is to have every child learn as many new skills as possible in order to maximize his or her potential. The majority of children look forward to therapy because they have fun and are put in a position where they are successful! Other common elements of our Autism Spectrum Disorder program includes: Picture Exchange Communication System, sign language, social stories, video modeling, meaningful generalization of skills to natural environments, parent/caregiver training and involvement in the therapy process, community support, school consultation and support.

This month we had our 4th Annual CCD Conference, blending clinical development with team building (and a few laughs). Our Diagnostic Clinical Technicians, led by Cheri Burkart, trained on a new psychological assessment that will help families in Minnesota continue accessing community services as their children grow. Our doctors, led by Dr. Megan Payer and Dr. Charles Rohr, focused on improving inter-rater reliability for the TELE-ASD-PEDS/KIDS telehealth observation measure and took a closer look at the Support Levels of Autism Spectrum Disorder. We also took on an engineering challenge (congrats to the DCTs on the win), tackled an escape room (one team got out, the other is still strategizing), and yes, threw a few axes. Investing in our team is investing in the families we serve. Already looking forward to year five. #ProfessionalDevelopment #TeammateFun #ClinicalExcellence

In part two of our diagnostic evaluation series, Dr. Michael Mihajlovic, President of Caravel Counseling and Diagnostic Services, walks through what actually happens inside each stage of a telehealth evaluation. The diagnostic interview is where the doctor asks about the child's developmental history, family history, symptom presentation, and current behaviors. It's where parents share the story that brought them in. The structured observation is built around the family, not around the clinician. The parent or caregiver acts as the doctor's assistant, guiding their child through a series of activities while the doctor observes how the child responds and interacts. After both stages, families receive immediate feedback on diagnosis and treatment recommendations. No waiting weeks for results. #CaravelAutismHealth #DiagnosticEvaluations #WeChangeLives

This week, our Regional Directors and senior leaders gathered in Milwaukee for our Spring Leadership Meeting. Two full days dedicated to professional growth, cross-functional collaboration, and meaningful conversation about the future of our organization and the teams we lead. Investing in our leaders is one of the most important things we do. The people in this room are responsible for developing the next generation of clinicians and leaders at Caravel, and the work they do shapes the experience of every teammate and every family we serve. Thank you to everyone who showed up ready to learn, share, and grow together.
