Our mental health education series were created with our clients in mind as we work to serve as a foundational step within your healing journey. Each of our series takes you through a different set of skills that expose you to an evidence-based therapeutic approach. Each 60-minute session really works to teach information in a way that you can understand, offers a safe space to process amongst others, and apply what you have learned through age appropriate activities and toolkits. Don’t forget about the toolkits! Our founder, Marissa, has worked hard in designing each toolkit with a step by step guide on how to perform the skill taught in class and acts as a reinforcement to what you’ve already learned! Tangible toolkits were a must have in creating our Simplifying Therapy method. We have a variety of mental health education series being offered on a consistent basis at our office in downtown Elgin as well as our community partnerships across Cook & Kane County. Take a look at our offerings below and feel free to send us an email with any questions that you may have. We look forward to serving you soon!
