At Autism Spectrum Therapies, we are dedicated to providing compassionate, individualized care and support for individuals on the autism spectrum. Our goal is to help each person reach their full potential through tailored therapies, skill-building programs, and a nurturing environment. Led by our Program Director, Naimo Hassan, our team works closely with families to ensure a holistic approach to growth, learning, and well-being.

Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (EIDBI)

The Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (EIDBI) Benefit is a Minnesota Health Care Program. The purpose of the EIDBI Benefit is to provide medically necessary early intensive intervention for people with ASD and related conditions, as well as:
• Educate, train and support their parents and families
• Promote people's independence and participation in family, school and community life
• Improve long-term outcomes and the quality of life for people and their families.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

ABA is a set of data-driven practices grounded in behavioral science. Providers can apply this approach to people of all ages.

ABA uses a combination of treatment strategies, including:
• Discrete trial training (DTT): Breaks down a desired behavior or response into individual steps and teaches each of those steps as a series of trials.
• Pivotal response training (PRT): Targets teaching behaviors that make the largest impact on the person's overall development (e.g., increasing motivation, self-monitoring and functional communication skills).
• Verbal behavior intervention (VBI): Focuses on teaching verbal communication skills with the principles of ABA.
• Naturalistic teaching (NT): Uses a play-based strategy that follows the child's lead and incorporates their strengths and interests to create learning opportunities in their natural environment.

Our Mission

Our mission at Autism Spectrum Therapies is to help every child unlock their full potential and thrive. We blend expertise with genuine compassion, creating a supportive environment where growth is celebrated every step of the way. By continually evolving our methods with the latest best practices in autism care, we ensure each child receives the tools, guidance, and encouragement they need to shine.

Build Creative Confidence

Every creative activity at our center is designed to help your child explore new challenges in a supportive, hands-on environment. Through guided projects and interactive learning, children can stay engaged, develop problem-solving skills, and gain confidence in expressing their unique ideas.

Learning together

Our programs help children grow independence, but we also create opportunities for families to participate in meaningful activities together. These shared moments foster connection, communication, and confidence in new skills.
