You’re Not Imagining It—Things Are Harder for This Generation
Your teen is melting down over homework, isolating in their room with their phone, and you worry about their friendships. Your college-aged child avoids phone calls, and you don’t know how to best check in with how things are going with them while respecting their boundaries and showing them trust. Or maybe you’re a young adult yourself, feeling totally lost and burned out while everyone else seems to be “figuring it out.”
We get it. And we can help.
Our therapists specialize in teen anxiety therapy in Chicago and support for young adults navigating anxiety, identity, and transition. We use a relational, systemic approach that considers family dynamics, cultural pressures, and nervous system overload—not just symptoms.
More Than Just Talk—We Teach Skills That Stick
It’s no surprise that today’s teens and young adults are carrying more than ever. Between social media pressure, academic stress, and a world on fire, their nervous systems are working overtime. With all of these changes in this generation, it’s tough for parents to know how to best support their young adult children and find the balance of accountability and trust.
We teach emotional regulation for teens, boundary-setting, and self-compassion—not in a preachy way, but through relatable tools they’ll actually use.
Whether they’re avoiding school, struggling with social anxiety, or feeling stuck post-graduation, our therapists help young people build resilience from the inside out.
Family Involvement (Without the Eye Rolls)
We often involve caregivers in ways that feel collaborative, not controlling. We’ll help you understand what your teen is really trying to say (even when they’re not saying anything). You’ll learn how to co-regulate, support autonomy, and model the emotional safety they need to thrive.
Therapy That Meets Them Where They Are
Skills-Based Support: Our work goes beyond venting—we equip your teen or young adult with a toolbox they can carry for life.

You Don’t Have to Navigate This Alone
Whether you're worried about your kid or you're a young adult seeking support on your own, we’re here to walk beside you.
