How Do I Find a Teen or Child Therapist Near Me?
6/25/24
In the bustling landscape of child and teen therapy options in Chicago and the North Shore, choosing the right practice for your child’s or teen’s well-being is a crucial decision. But how do you find the right one? Most people start with the question ‘who can recommend a child therapist near me?’ But there is so much more to consider than proximity. We understand finding the right fit can feel daunting. At our family-owned boutique therapy practice, we fully invest in the health of your family (and child of any age, young adults included). We offer a unique and personalized experience that sets us apart.
Tailored Care for Pediatric Mental Health Issues
Our pediatric therapists are dedicated to serving young people through all stages of development, as they face a spectrum of milestones and mental health challenges. Our comprehensive support is tailored to each individual’s unique needs, even if its one of the most common issues we’re seeing daily such as anxiety or depression. To our young clients we are a unique kind of friend, and a special kind of teacher, to offer them something they may not learn elsewhere. We investigate a child’s whole personality; their strengths and passions included. Incorporating these into the strategies we are teaching, is a must, when it comes to lighting the spark of genuine learning. We are someone they can talk to freely, about anyone or anything, without worrying about anyone’s feelings but their own. This healthy expression is followed by learning exciting new ways to manage difficult emotions. When children can learn to carry a sense of empowerment and self-care during their formative years, we know we have made a lasting impression.
Boutique Experience in the Heart of Chicago
Our teen and child therapists believe in providing more than just therapy; we offer a boutique experience that goes beyond expectations. A teen coming in for the first time might worry about being comfortable in a pediatric office, yet they will come to find it’s more like a spa than a playground. Yet we have plenty of toys, games, art materials, and more (all chosen carefully for each client, rather than every client). Our office environment integrates elements of nature with elegance to create a serene and comfortable space for children, teens and young adults alike. Every detail is carefully considered to create a calming environment, right down to the choice for cruelty-free fabrics on our furniture. We understand the importance of ambiance in the therapeutic process and our thoughtfully crafted setting reflects our commitment to creating calm.
Family-Owned and Client-Centric Approach
As a small, family-owned child therapy practice in Chicago established in 2014, we take pride in maintaining genuine relationships with our clients. Our intimate size allows us to prioritize personalized attention, ensuring that your family receives the care you deserve. This begins with your initial complimentary consultation, where we take ample time to discuss your questions, needs and therapist matches that we will recommend based upon our clinical experience. We are invested in your success from the very beginning, as we are proud to enjoy long term relationships with clients who return to us over the years.
Highest Quality Services and Evidence-Based Therapies
Quality is at the core of everything we do. Our team of child and teen therapists is not only highly trained, but also deeply passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of the families we serve. We stay abreast of the latest research and therapeutic techniques to provide the highest standard of care. Our traditional, evidence-based interventions are combined with creative methods to ensure children are responding positively to each session and motivation remains high. When you choose one of our therapists, you are benefitting from the knowledge and experience of the team at large. Our team engages in training, round tables and group consultation frequently, resulting in ongoing professional development that is higher than average (and goes beyond what is required of us). And of course, discretion and privacy are at the foundation of everything we do. At Best Self Inc., you can trust that your child is receiving therapeutic interventions backed by science, expertise and compassion.
Investment in Long-Term Success
Choosing Best Self Inc. for your child or teen’s therapy, means investing in their long term success. We not only focus on addressing immediate concerns but also equip your child with the tools and skills they need to navigate life’s challenges successfully. Learning these lessons at a young age is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Our ultimate goal is to instill resilience, confidence and a positive outlook that will serve them well into adulthood. We celebrate our clients’ successes long after they’ve left our office (with an open door policy for the next chapter). Our mission is simply to help as many kids and young people as possible become healthy, happy, and confident.
We hope you will choose us for a journey toward well-being that is as distinctive and individual as your family.
