Specialties

Therapy Specialties at Sage Mental Health

At Sage Mental Health, we offer evidence-based outpatient therapy for individuals, couples, families, and adolescents across Illinois. Our clinicians specialize in a wide range of mental health concerns and tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs, goals, and life circumstances. All services are provided via secure telehealth to ensure accessibility, privacy, and continuity of care.

Our Clinical Approach

Our therapists draw from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, and psychodynamic approaches. Treatment is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in clinical best practices. We believe effective therapy honors both emotional depth and practical skill-building.

Areas of Focus

Anxiety

Living with constant worry, restlessness, or racing thoughts can feel exhausting. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the anxiety and build practical tools to help you feel calmer, more in control, and able to enjoy the present moment.

Depression

Depression can make it hard to find energy, hope, or joy in the things you once loved. We offer a supportive space to process your feelings, reconnect with yourself, and rediscover the small steps that bring light back into your life.

Family Support

Families often carry each other through life’s ups and downs, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy. We create a safe space for families to strengthen communication, ease tension, and grow closer while honoring each person’s voice and needs.

Grief & Life Transitions

Loss and change—whether through the passing of a loved one, retirement, or unexpected life shifts—can leave you feeling unsteady. We walk alongside you as you process your grief or transition, helping you find meaning, healing, and new ways forward.

Relationship Issues

Relationships are at the heart of our lives, but they can also be a source of pain when communication breaks down or trust is shaken. We help individuals and couples strengthen connection, set healthy boundaries, and build relationships that feel supportive and fulfilling.

Aging, Senior Mental Health, and Family Support 

Later life can bring unique joys as well as challenges. We provide compassionate support for older adults as they navigate changes in health, independence, identity, and connection. We also walk alongside adult children who may be coping with the emotional and practical challenges of caring for an aging parent. Our goal is to ensure that you and your loved ones feel heard, valued, and supported through every stage of aging.
