Our Lakeview location was chosen deliberately. We are not a generic therapy office that happens to be nearby — we are a specialty anxiety practice built for an urban, high-functioning, diverse population that deserves clinical care as sophisticated as they are. Clients come to us for:
•Specialty expertise in OCD, health anxiety, social anxiety, and panic — not just ‘stress management’
•Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) — the gold-standard OCD treatment, rarely offered in Chicago outpatient settings
•Integrated psychiatry: medication management and therapy in the same practice
•Neuropsychological testing for ADHD and learning concerns
Across every office, our clinicians professionals provide thoughtful, individualized care focused on helping you make steady progress throughout treatment.
We provide structured CBT for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), helping individuals reduce persistent, hard-to-control worry that impacts work, relationships, health, and daily life.
Our approach is time-limited, evidence-based, and focused on addressing the underlying cognitive patterns driving anxiety—not just managing symptoms.
For Boystown (Northalsted) residents, Light On Anxiety offers neuropsychological evaluations to clarify ADHD, learning differences, autism spectrum traits, and other cognitive or behavioral concerns in children (ages 8+), adolescents, and adults.
In a diverse community of students, professionals, and creatives, these assessments help explain long-standing attention or performance challenges and provide clear, actionable recommendations for treatment, school supports, or next steps, with care available at our nearby Chicago locations.
When medication is part of the clinical picture, our psychiatric providers evaluate and manage it in coordination with your therapist.
We prescribe SSRIs, SNRIs, and other evidence-based pharmacological interventions for anxiety disorders.
We provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, OCD, and related conditions using structured CBT and ERP approaches that target the patterns driving symptoms.
