About Clarity Clinic

Clarity Clinic River North is one of the largest and fastest-growing psychiatric centers in Illinois. As an outpatient provider of private therapy in the Chicagoland and Illinois region, the clinic supports people of all ages dealing with mental health and substance use challenges. Services are delivered by experienced professionals who personalize treatment plans and use clinically supported approaches to address a wide variety of concerns. Among the conditions treated are addiction to drugs or alcohol, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, eating disorders, and personality disorders including borderline personality disorder (BPD). The center also provides neurodivergent evaluation and care for individuals with attention deficit disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Clarity Clinic includes individualized therapy that can be adapted for men, women, children, and families, including those navigating divorce or domestic violence. Clients receive a supportive environment, practical coping tools, and structured problem-solving guidance. The clinic also offers group, individual, and child-focused therapy options to meet the needs of families seeking additional support.

Recognizing how important early assistance can be, Clarity Clinic provides pediatric therapy for children and teens experiencing emotional, behavioral, and developmental difficulties.

The clinic also features a specialized LGBTQIA+ care program. Dedicated specialists help clients work through questions related to coming out, family relationships, and building healthier interactions. Psychotherapy at Clarity Clinic can also support people addressing gender dysphoria.

In addition, Clarity Clinic River North treats behavioral health conditions such as obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as phobias and irrational fears, narcissism, work-related stress and difficulties, persistent sadness, grief and bereavement, anger management, self-esteem concerns, suicidal thoughts, and social anxiety. Support is also available for sleep-related issues including insomnia and daytime sleepiness, with attention to contributing factors such as poor nutrition, anxiety, depression, and sleep apnea.

Clinicians use evidence-based practices including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), mindfulness, and family therapy to help treat different eating disorders such as binge eating, compulsive eating, anorexia nervosa, and bulimia.

The team includes psychiatrists and therapists who address a range of concerns that may affect men and women differently, including weight-related goals, sexual health and performance issues, substance use, and mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. Marriage and couples therapy supports both partners in strengthening communication and developing constructive conflict resolution skills. Clarity Clinic River North also offers therapeutic support for individuals and families facing dementia, providing coping strategies and practical problem-solving skills.

Beyond therapy, life coaching is available for clients working toward meaningful changes, including weight loss, career transitions, and building long-term stability.

In the Chicago area, Clarity Clinic provides modern treatment options such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), commonly used for trauma and PTSD. With EMDR, patients focus on traumatic memories while following a specific pattern of eye movement stimulation, helping lessen the emotional impact and encouraging healing.

Certified addiction specialists and licensed drug and alcohol counselors collaborate with the treatment team to deliver compassionate, holistic care. Along with evidence-based psychotherapy, the clinic offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and medication management services.

Clarity Clinic River North accepts most major insurance providers and is in-network with many plans.
