One more spot left in our high school group!

Back to school anxiety? We got you! Is your child nervous about going back to school? Returning to school brings up a lot of anxious feelings for kids, teens, and parents! Talking to your child and acknowledging your child’s feelings will help them feel more secure. You can also help their confidence by helping them strategize about how to handle things they’re concerned about. Talking about the upcoming routines, teachers, and what the school year will be like can help to ease anxieties or help your child with expectations. We can help your child if the back to school anxiety is impacting their daily life. We can also help you as parents to help them. #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #socialwork #socialworkers #counseling #therapy #therapists #chicago #chicagobusiness #Chicagobusinesses

Super excited to welcome Denisha to the team. You can find her in our Oak Park office Monday- Fridays.

While we want to help in making a world and society where it’s normal to talk about mental health, there still is plenty of work to do! We want to normalize therapy, and we want you and your family to enjoy the experience here at SBS! We do that in part, by utilizing ACT therapy and those interests you may have. Whether it’s video games, sports, or music, we use those interests in session. ACT therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps you accept the difficulties that come with life. Categorically speaking, ACT is a form of mindfulness based therapy, theorizing that greater well-being can be attained by overcoming negative thoughts and feelings. ACT looks at your character traits and behaviors to assist you in reducing avoidant coping styles. ACT also addresses your commitment to making changes, and what to do about it when you can’t stick to your goals. Have questions, we’re here! #acttherapy #therapy #therapyiscool #therapists #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #socialwork #socialworkers #chicago #chicagobusinesses
