Traverse City

Our flagship center in Traverse City is conveniently located in the former Norris Elementary School, now the vibrant multi-use Gateway Professional Center.


Aislin Woell, MA, BCBA, LBA, Director of Traverse City Programs

I have called Traverse City home since July 2022, but Northern Michigan has been a part of my life from the get go as I grew up spending my summers on the shores of Lake Michigan in Arcadia, MI. I feel the pull to lead my team to think outside of the box and get creative for the specific needs of the  families we serve while relying on science, data, and evidence-based strategies to provide a truly individualized ABA experience.

I encourage our team to collaborate with all professionals involved in the care of your child as I believe this is how we can create socially significant changes in the lives of those we serve. Northern Michigan will forever feel like home to me, and I am grateful to have this opportunity to work with you and your family!


Finding Our Clinic:

The building houses multiple businesses and may be larger than expected! Please enter through the main doors located along Cherry Bend Road and proceed down the hallway. Studio 10 will be on your right and serves as the entrance for North Arrow ABA families.
