New Autism Therapy Clinic Designed for Children Opens Its Doors in St. Cloud

ST. CLOUD, Minn., Oct. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Caravel Autism Health, a leader in the diagnosis and treatment of young children on the autism spectrum, is hosting a ribbon-cutting on Tuesday, October 7 to celebrate the grand opening of a new, state-of-the-art autism therapy clinic. The clinic, located at 226 Park Avenue South in St. Cloud, MN, is staffed by childhood autism experts who specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy.

ABA therapy uses positive reinforcement to help children with autism improve a wide range of skills including communication and social skills. The effectiveness of ABA therapy is recognized by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The clinic features colorful, sensory-friendly spaces where children work one-on-one with therapists to build skills, develop confidence, and learn to connect with the world around them. Caravel offers a full range of services including diagnostic evaluation, therapy, family support, and counseling.

"Our mission at Caravel Autism Health is to change lives," explained Caravel CEO Mike Miller. "We change lives by providing much-needed ABA therapy that helps children reach their full potential. We've made a commitment to invest in communities like St. Cloud so that we can ensure resources of the highest quality are present for local families."

The CDC now estimates that 1 in 31 children is on the autism spectrum. "Early intervention is key to achieving the best outcomes," says Clinic Director Viktoriya Zorchenko, MS, BCBA. "It creates lasting, positive change for both children on the spectrum and their families. By opening new clinics and growing our team, we're making it possible for more children with autism across Minnesota to develop essential skills and enjoy more fulfilling lives."
