Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Answers to what people usually want to know before reaching out.

How do I choose the right specialty?
You don't have to get it exactly right. Reach out with whatever brought you here, and we'll help match you with the therapist best suited to it, even if that means a different specialty than the one you clicked on.
What's the cost of therapy?
Cost depends on your insurance and the specific service. We're in-network with several major providers, and our team can walk you through your options before your first session.
Do you accept my insurance?
We're in-network with UnitedHealthcare, BlueCross BlueShield, CampusCare, and Aetna. If your plan isn't listed, contact us and we'll confirm your coverage directly.
Is therapy available in person or online?
Both. We offer in-person sessions at our Loop office and virtual sessions anywhere in the greater Chicagoland area.
How soon can I get started?
Most new clients hear back within a day or two of reaching out, and we'll work with you to find an appointment time that fits your schedule.
What happens in the first session?
Your first session is mostly about getting to know each other. Your therapist will ask about what brought you in and start shaping a plan that fits your goals.
