Therapeutic Approach
At some point in life, we all need a little help finding our way back to our sense of self and security. Life events, a global pandemic, mental illness, substance abuse, and trauma can take us all off course. Therapy is what can guide us back on our path. We believe healing occurs in the context of human relationships, which is why our Chicago therapists take a relational approach to therapy. Understanding and cultivating satisfying relationships are vital for our mental health and overall quality of life. Children, adolescents, and adults all desire to be heard and understood, and counseling can facilitate emotional connections.
As a boutique group practice in Chicago, our therapists, including Jessica Mead, specialize in diverse areas such as divorce, child therapy, childhood anxiety, adolescent and emerging adult development, ADHD, family reunification, parenting, women's issues, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. We employ a multidimensional approach in our counseling sessions, utilizing mindfulness techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment theories, and trauma-informed strategies to enhance our practice. Our clients, both young and old, find comfort in the therapeutic process. Many learn practical ways to reduce anxiety and depression while exploring their relationships and understanding their emotional needs and desires.
"Life is a repeated cycle of getting lost and then finding yourself again. There are many smaller cycles within that cycle where you get lost to a smaller degree and then remember yourself again. Sometimes you do it to yourself on purpose, consciously or unconsciously. Every time you get lost, it is so that you can learn something or experience something from a different perspective." – Jay Woodman.
We believe therapy can help you discover the best version of yourself.
