Wayzata is a picturesque Lake Minnetonka shoreline community of approximately 4,500 residents, known for its charming downtown, top-rated schools, and strong sense of community. Wayzata Public Schools (ISD 284) is consistently ranked among the highest-performing districts in Minnesota, and families here are intentional about seeking out services that meet the same standard of excellence. Dakota Autism Center provides ABA therapy with that level of care — clinically rigorous, personally tailored, and grounded in partnership with each family.
Despite its smaller size, Wayzata draws families from across the west metro who attend schools in the ISD 284 district. Many of these families are navigating autism services for the first time and want a provider who will guide them through every step. Our intake team simplifies the process — from insurance verification to initial assessment — so families can focus on what matters most: their child's growth. We also recognize that each family's situation is unique, and we adapt our approach to honor your priorities and values.
