Many Evanston clients choose our Wilmette office because they want therapy that delivers tools—not just conversation.
Our Wilmette office is typically 10–15 minutes from Evanston.
Evanston residents are just 10–15 minutes from our Wilmette office via Sheridan Road or nearby local routes, with convenient access to both in-person and telehealth appointments. Getting started is straightforward—our team helps verify insurance, determines the right level of care, and schedules your first appointment, often within one to two weeks. Many Evanston clients come to us seeking structured, evidence-based therapy that focuses on practical tools, skill building, and long-term confidence in managing anxiety and OCD.
Clients often come for:
•Overthinking and chronic worry
•Academic or professional stress
•Intrusive thoughts
•Goal-oriented treatment
At every location, our professionals remain closely involved in your care, offering consistent guidance and support from the initial assessment through the completion of treatment.
Our clinicians provide evidence-based therapy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety and related disorders. We work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, tailoring treatment to each person’s needs and goals.
Care is structured and goal-oriented, with a focus on practical skills and measurable progress throughout the course of treatment.
Evanston residents (60201, 60202, 60203, 60204, 60208, and 60209) often encounter fragmented OCD care despite strong access to mental health awareness, with limited coordination between therapy and prescribing providers. Our Wilmette-based practice provides a more integrated approach.
We deliver ERP for OCD within one coordinated clinical team, ensuring consistent, evidence-based treatment for all major OCD subtypes with aligned care when medication is needed.
For Evanston residents who have been managing mental health conditions through their primary care physician, or who have been on the same medication for years without a psychiatric review, we offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluations.
Our psychiatrists revisit the original diagnosis, assess current symptom burden, review medication appropriateness, and develop an updated treatment plan.
We prescribe thoughtfully, and we always prefer to combine medication with therapy when evidence supports it.
We provide coordinated care for OCD, anxiety disorders, depression, grief, and related conditions through a single integrated clinical team rather than fragmented providers.
We work with college students, professionals experiencing burnout, adolescents under academic and social stress, adults with ADHD, patients with complex psychiatric histories, and older adults facing cognitive changes, grief, or depression.
Light On Anxiety emphasizes structured, time-limited care that builds practical, lasting skills for managing anxiety beyond treatment.
Our approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and continuously refined to reflect current research and advances in treating anxiety and related conditions.
Our experienced clinicians can typically schedule new patient appointments within a few days.
Our approach is evidence-based and action-oriented, designed to support measurable improvement, often within about three months.
We provide in-person care across multiple Chicago-area locations, along with telehealth options for added flexibility.
Getting started is simple. We accept insurance and help patients understand coverage and cost options to make care more accessible.
