    Questions from West St. Paul families

    Do you serve children from West St. Paul?

    +

    Yes. Spectrum Roots welcomes families from West St. Paul — including Cherokee Heights and Garlough — and the surrounding South Metro. Our Golden Valley center is ~14 miles southeast of our Golden Valley center, and we offer transportation support for families who need help getting to therapy.

    What ages do you work with in West St. Paul?

    +

    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 West St. Paul families?

    +

    Most West St. Paul 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 West St. Paul 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.
