We know how important it is to find a therapist who feels like the right fit. When you reach out, our intake coordinator will ask a few questions about your goals and preferences to help match you with a therapist whose expertise aligns with your needs.

Getting started is simple. You can call or text us at 815-496-0620 or fill out our online contact form. Our intake coordinator will help match you with the therapist who best fits your needs and preferences. We’ll also answer any questions you have about insurance, scheduling, or getting set up for your first appointment.

We can provide you with detailed information about our fees during an initial consultation. We accept Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, United, and Aetna plans. If we’re not in-network with your plan, we can provide a superbill for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Our current out of pocket price is $175.

Your first session is a chance to get to know your therapist and share what brings you to therapy. Together, you’ll explore your goals and begin creating a plan for your care. Sessions are typically 50 minutes and designed to help you feel supported and heard from the start.

We understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes appointments need to be rescheduled. We kindly request that you provide at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling to avoid any cancellation fees.
