    Built for White Bear Lake, rooted in East Metro

    White Bear Lake families value a slower pace and community continuity. We mirror that with steady provider teams that stay with your child long term.

    ISD 624's autism services team is a strong partner and we attend their planning meetings on behalf of families.

    Frequently asked

    Questions from White Bear Lake families

    Do you serve children from White Bear Lake?

    +

    Yes. Spectrum Roots welcomes families from White Bear Lake — including Lakeshore Drive and Mahtomedi border — and the surrounding East Metro. Our Golden Valley center is ~17 miles northeast 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 White Bear Lake?

    +

    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 White Bear Lake families?

    +

    Most White Bear Lake 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 White Bear Lake 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.
