    Built for Golden Valley, rooted in West Metro

    Golden Valley is our home. We chose to build Spectrum Roots here because the community embodies the values we run our clinic on — calm, curious, and family-first.

    We're walking distance or a short drive from most Golden Valley neighborhoods, and our team lives, shops, and raises kids alongside the families we serve.

    Questions from Golden Valley families

    Do you serve children from Golden Valley?

    +

    Yes. Spectrum Roots welcomes families from Golden Valley — including North Tyrol Hills and Sweeney Lake — and the surrounding West Metro. Our Golden Valley center is right in Golden Valley, and we offer transportation support for families who need help getting to therapy.

    What ages do you work with in Golden Valley?

    +

    We specialize in children on the autism spectrum ages 2 to 13. This window is when early intensive intervention has the greatest impact on communication, social, and daily-living skills.

    Does insurance cover therapy for Golden Valley families?

    +

    Most Golden Valley families pay $0 out of pocket. We are in network with Minnesota Medical Assistance (Medicaid), UCare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota. Our intake team handles benefits verification and prior authorization.

    How quickly can my child start?

    +

    Most Golden Valley families move from first call to first therapy session in a few weeks. We help schedule the Comprehensive Multi-Disciplinary Evaluation (CMDE) if you don't already have one and walk you through every step.
