Chanhassen is a thriving southwest-metro community of approximately 27,000 residents, recognized for its natural beauty, family-oriented neighborhoods, and cultural landmarks like the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres. Families here enjoy access to Lake Ann, the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, and an extensive trail system — all within a community that prioritizes quality of life. Dakota Autism Center is proud to bring that same commitment to quality into the therapy services we provide for Chanhassen families.

02

Eastern Carver County Schools (ISD 112) serves Chanhassen students and is known for its responsive approach to family needs. Many Chanhassen families are balancing school commitments, therapy appointments, and the everyday pace of a busy household. Our BCBAs design treatment plans with that reality in mind — setting goals that matter in your child's daily life and building skills that transfer from therapy sessions to classrooms, playgrounds, and family meals at home.

03

While Chanhassen is approximately 20 miles southwest of our Minneapolis center — accessible via Highway 5, Highway 101, or Highway 212 — our in-home ABA program eliminates the commute for families who prefer local sessions. Our RBTs serve Chanhassen neighborhoods directly, providing consistent therapy in the environment where your child is most at ease.

Chanhassen ABA Therapy FAQ

Questions Chanhassen families ask about ABA therapy

Answers to the most common questions from families in Chanhassen and surrounding areas like Eden Prairie, Shakopee, Victoria.

5 questions answered

Yes. Our in-home ABA team serves families throughout Chanhassen. A trained Registered Behavior Technician comes to your home for each session, working on individualized goals designed by your child's supervising BCBA.

Our Minneapolis center at 331 2nd Ave S is approximately 20 miles northeast of Chanhassen — typically a 25–35 minute drive via Highway 212 to I-494 or Highway 5 to I-35W. Many Chanhassen families choose in-home services for convenience.

We accept most major insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, and Minnesota Medical Assistance (Medicaid). Our intake team verifies your coverage and manages prior authorization before your child's first session.

We primarily serve children ages 2–12, with our center-based program tailored for preschool-age learners. In-home ABA and EIDBI services are available for a broader age range. Reach out to our team to discuss your child's specific needs and the best fit for their age and goals.

ABA therapy targets behavioral and developmental goals that support your child's success across all settings — including school. Our BCBAs can align therapy objectives with your child's IEP or classroom goals at Eastern Carver County Schools (ISD 112), ensuring skills like communication, self-regulation, and social interaction carry over into the school day.
