Emotional distress from anxiety, depression, anger, grief and loss, or trauma.
-
Family conflicts or parenting concerns.
-
Children's problems related to school, home, or community.
-
Youth development regarding family, peer, school, and identity.
-
Couples’ relationships.
-
Individual or family adjustment following divorce or remarriage.
-
Support in the midst of major life decisions or transitions.
-
Many other questions around emotional, spiritual or relational goals.
If you're interested in our services, you should know our work is:
- Collaborative – We will help you set counseling goals based on your hopes and concerns.
- Strength Based – We can assist you in identifying your strengths and available resources that can be helpful in reaching your desired goals.
- Systemic – We can work with the significant people and professionals in your life to make the work effective. Our sites have additional programs and services that could be helpful as well.
- Team Oriented – Staff therapists work together to share expertise, meaning that you will benefit from the cumulative knowledge and experience represented on our team.
- Faith-Based – All of our therapists work from a Christian perspective; at the same time we welcome and respect those clients whose faith traditions differ from our own.
- Sliding Fee Scale – We offer services on a sliding fee scale. We do not want economic circumstances to prevent you from getting the services you need.
Additional Services:
- Crisis Intervention – WYO provides 24-hour-a-day intervention at eight area police departments for youth who have run away or are locked out; WYO can work with youth who are “out of control” or at risk of police involvement.
- Psychological Testing – At our Carol Stream site, clients of all ages (child, adolescent, and adult) can receive affordable professional psychological testing to assist in the assessment of intellectual, academic, and/or personality functioning; to clarify diagnosis; to assess readiness for ministry (clergy and missionary candidate evaluations); adoption evaluations, and for the identification of learning disabilities or attention difficulties.
- Psychiatric Services - Clients who are 18 and older can access the on-site psychiatric services available at our Carol Stream office. Psychiatric services are provided through a partnership with Access DuPage and the Access Community Health Network.
