Online Therapy For Couples and Individuals - Illinois

You don’t have to take the L to our counseling office in the Chicago loop to get counseling services.In fact, you don’t even have to come into the city of Chicago to see one of our therapists.Through using online counseling sessions, you save a great deal of travel time to and from a physical office.It’s easy to fit in a counseling session during your lunch hour or even a child’s nap. You simply go to a private space at the scheduled time and log in.

When you attend counseling sessions online, you don't have to fear that someone will see you walking into our office or that you’ll run into a colleague. Therefore, there is an increased element of privacy. You don’t need to explain to your bosses why you need an extra-long lunch since you’re logging in for only the time of your scheduled appointment. And because we use encrypted, HIPAA-compliant software, your data is secure online as well.

There are a variety of reasons you may have had difficulty attending counseling sessions in the past. You may live in rural Illinois and would typically have to drive a long distance for mental health services. Or you may have difficulty moving around due to physical limitations. Online therapy can be an excellent option in these situations. As long as you have access to a device with reliable internet and are physically located in the state of Illinois, you are able to easily access your online therapist. Furthermore, you are still able to attend counseling appointments and save your energy for the emotional work you’ll do with your therapist instead of worrying about the logistics of getting to a counseling office.

One of the best parts of telehealth is that it opens up options for people. Through online counseling, you can see a therapist who is physically located anywhere in the state of Illinois. From our office in downtown Chicago, our therapist meet with people in Springfield, Peoria, Rockford, Naperville or anywhere else in the state!

While video sessions are preferred for virtual counseling, we also know that technology can have limitations. Losing your internet connection and sharing the wi-fi with others can affect your connectivity. However, at the end of the day, don’t let internet problems stand in the way of getting the mental health support you need. For those with a poor internet connection, or for those who just don't want to be on camera, our therapists also offer phone counseling sessions for individuals or couples. We’re here and ready to help.

Our therapists have different rates based on experience, so your session rate is based on your therapist’s rate, the type of therapy and the length of session. All of our therapists have a few sliding-scale time slots at off hours for clients in financial need. You can talk to your therapist about this opportunity before your first session. Check our team page for more information on rates for each of our therapists.

While we do not take insurance directly, we are accepted as an “out-of-network” provider, so you can get any out-of-network benefits that your plan provides.

If you don’t have insurance, choose not to use your insurance, or don’t have out-of-network benefits, we accept private pay clients as well. In fact, most of our clients are private pay. We accept HSA, FSA, and HRA Cards. We also have a few sliding scale slots to individuals or couples in need (you can talk to one of our therapists for more information).
