What to expect on your first visit

The first session is primarily a conversation, not a test or a commitment to a long course of treatment. Your therapist will get to know your situation, discuss your goals, answer your questions, and begin shaping a collaborative treatment plan.

From our patients

““The anxiety therapists here really understand anxiety disorders in a way other Chicago therapists I’ve seen didn’t. They focus only on anxiety treatment, and it shows. My generalized anxiety is finally manageable.” — Jennifer L., Lakeview”

I needed a therapist to help me with work burnout and anxiety that was close to the Gold Coast. My doctor suggested Brendan with Calm Anxiety Clinic. I started seeing him once a week and after a few sessions started feeling relief. I think would help me most was the combination of CBT and mindfulness. He was caring and compassionate, but also called me out on my stuff when it was appropriate. I’m so glad I started getting some help. 🧘

I needed a therapist to help me with panic attacks and anxiety near Lakeview. I started working with Grace and within a few sessions felt so much better. I feel like I have the tools. I need now to get through difficult moments. I loved being able to use BCBS insurance!

I was struggling with burnout from perfectionism and needed a therapist to help me with grounding techniques and coping strategies. A friend told me about this place and so I began working with Anthony. He was extremely hopeful with helping me to get to the root of my burnout and how to create change. I loved being able to work with him remotely while I was staying in Andersonville!

I was struggling with relationship, anxiety and needed CBT Therapy. I started working with Anthony and going through the Pathfinder 10 program. I have to say that it really helped me with better understanding my anxiety and creating tools and resources for me to cope. I love the 10 session format that we could schedule at a time that worked for both of us. I feel completely different now about myself and how I relate to the world. My therapist was Anthony and I had to say it was a really positive experience

There is nothing in the world like finding that person who reflects your ideals and helps you work through your challenges. I live nearby in Streeterville and knew I needed someone local to be consistent, but I have made such incredible strides here with the anxiety, the OCD, the PTSD I've been struggling with it's ridiculous. While it's mostly been CBT therapy, my therapist has introduced me to ACT, CBT reframing, a range of dynamic and engaging techniques to help me shift from surviving to thriving. Highly recommend!!
