Caravel Autism Health Opens Specialized Therapy Clinic in Lake Zurich

The new Lake Zurich clinic moves away from traditional clinical settings, utilizing sensory-friendly spaces designed for one-on-one sessions. Specialists at the facility focus on Applied Behavior Analysis, a method endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC to help children develop communication and social interaction skills. Beyond therapy, the center provides diagnostic evaluations and family counseling services.

CEO Mike Miller emphasized that the investment aims to bridge the gap in local healthcare resources, allowing for highly individualized programs. Clinic Director Katie Null, MA, BCBA, LBA, noted that the timing of intervention remains the most critical factor for long-term development. By increasing local capacity, the organization hopes to reduce wait times for families seeking early developmental support. The center is currently accepting inquiries for both clinical services and open staff positions.
