I love my therapist and that you all take my insurance! Also the telehealth option is great, and the office location is convenient too.
Ability to get in quickly
Alexis has been very helpful and understanding, and always strives to use evidence-based theories and proven strategies to address my concerns. This has not always been the case with my past therapists, so I appreciate her dedication to the facts, rather than running on vibes.
My therapist is the best
Alexis is so kind, and understanding, and she's a really good active listener. That is so beyond helpful in this field of work!
The documents they give you, the patience, and the importance in building relationships before getting into the deep parts of it.
Grace and Alexis have helped me tremendously in such a short period of time. I have tried therapy a countless amount of times with so many different therapists and locations all over Chicago (even online therapy) and no one has been anywhere near as amazing. They are so kind, helpful, and funny! I love them both so much and they really have changed my life in so many ways!! I love light on anxiety!
I love working with my therapist Alexis, and I love that you take my insurance and have flexibility for in-person and virtual options. Your location is conveniently located, and your office staff have been quick to answer questions about insurance and my account.
Alexis has been a wonderful therapist that has helped me make great progress. I especially like that she has been flexible with my treatment plan as my needs vary based on the week or day a lot. Alexis is the best therapist I have had and I am very thankful for her help and compassion.
