Or you can call us at (847) 492-2121.

Either way, we will get back to you within one business day, and we’ll schedule your first appointment at that time.

The first session works a bit differently than the rest.

First, we’ll have you complete some paperwork.

During that session, we’ll talk about what brought you here (of course!), and we’ll lay some groundwork – going over your current situation as well as your family history.

We don’t force you to discuss anything you’re not ready for, yet we’re open to discuss anything you are ready for.

Therapy is your time to focus on YOU.

Your time to be heard. Your time to be validated. Your time to let your guard down.

Everyone’s starting point is different, and we’ll take things at your pace. As you’re ready, we’ll discuss the issues that brought you to therapy. As your comfort builds with your therapist, we’ll tackle questions designed to help you explore yourself, your thinking, and your relationships at a deeper level.

This is where the healing happens.

Some sessions may feel heavy and difficult to get through since you’ll probably be talking about some pretty tough stuff.

Other sessions will feel like a release, uplifting and cathartic.

And then there are the sessions where we celebrate. Celebrate how far you’ve come! These are the sessions filled with joy and laughter.

Come as you are, and together we will take it one step at a time.

Not at all! Therapy is all about you.
