Anxiety Training Competitors

For over 30 years, The Anxiety Treatment Center of Greater Chicago has been the source for the best anxiety care in Chicago and the North Shore. We offer a proactive solution for your anxiety disorders, allowing you to regain control of your life and providing you with the tools to manage your suffering. Our group practice, with offices in Chicago, Deerfield and Springfield, IL is composed of therapists who have been specially trained in the treatment of anxiety and stress-related disorders. Our focus on anxiety utilizes the most current, scientifically-based treatment, involving the active participation of patients (and their parents, in the case of children) in the process of recovery. Cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure-based therapy, ACT, DBT, ICBT, Independence Therapy, mindfulness training, and motivational interviewing are just a few tools we utilize to help modify thought patterns, carefully expose you to situations which make you fearful, and empower you to manage your own anxiety. Our approach is results-oriented, which enables you to experience success more quickly. Our group practice gives us the flexibility to treat you where you need it most. If anxiety has diminished your ability to participate in typical daily activities, our therapists will conduct sessions in your own home or in the place where you experience the most anxiety. Our goal is to help you experience recovery so you can thrive.

Mental Health First Aid is an 8-hour course that teaches you how to help someone who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis.

The Anxiety Treatment Center, Ltd., is a small group of psychologists who specialize in helping people with anxiety problems. We offer individual and group treatment at our offices in and around Chicago - in the Chicago Loop, Oak Park, and Rolling Meadows. Our mission is to help people who suffer with fears and phobias regain the ability to live happy and productive lives. Our services are based on cognitive behavioral methods of treatment. A cognitive behavioral treatment is fairly concrete and practical. It helps people recover from anxiety disorders primarily by helping them respond differently to the anxiety symptoms. All too often, people struggle with anxiety problems in ways that make them worse rather than better. They struggle to protect themselves from anxious thoughts and feelings, only to find that their lives get more difficult and restricted as a result. Our treatment plans find ways around that problem. As you practice the new approach, you will find that the anxiety recedes from your life. This is a very different approach than that offered by traditional psychotherapy. Traditional psychotherapy aims to help people by reviewing their early childhood experiences and trying to answer the "why" question - "why do I have this problem?". Our method is much more concerned with the "what" and "how" questions - "what happens to me when I become anxious?" and "how can I handle this differently, in ways that enable me to calm down?".
