Avela Health offers comprehensive virtual autism evaluations for all ages and tailored autism services across the lifespan.
A new, more supportive model of autism care
Avela Health delivers comprehensive autism support — not just virtual therapy — tailored to your child, your teen, and your family.
Intervention that adapts with you
Forget one-size-fits-all solution. Your dedicated and experienced Master’s or Doctorate-level clinician will build a tailored plan for you or your family that addresses your unique needs and goals.
Community you can count on
Our therapeutic groups for autistic adults, autistic teens, and parents of autistic kids and teens create safe, affirming spaces to connect with others who “get it,” share real experiences, and build practical tools for daily life.
School support at every step
Your care team is able to partner with your child’s school to make sure support carries over into the classroom.
This can include helping develop an IEP or 504 plan, joining school meetings, consulting with teachers, or even meeting with your child during the school day—for example, over lunch.
Specialty care, made simple
We offer access to specialty providers—such as occupational, physical, and speech-language therapists, as well as experts in the education system—whenever you or your child need them.
They can join your sessions with your Avela Health clinician, meet with you one-on-one, or collaborate directly with your care team to provide added support.
Care designed for real life
Our virtual services make it simple to embed care in your daily routines. Stay connected at every by messaging your care team anytime in the Avela Health app. Share experiences and support in the community forum.
Outcomes that make an impact
At Avela Health, we rely only on leading, evidence-based approaches—and we continuously track outcomes to make sure care is truly helping families make progress.
