Pivot Behavioral Health
Helping You Help Yourself
- Services Offered -
At Pivot Behavioral Health, we provide evidence-based services at three different levels of care: peer support group, guided self-help, and outpatient psychotherapy. The services we offer use the available research to give you the tools and support you need to make real, lasting change in your life. In person services are offered at our Lakeview East office, 611 W Briar Pl, Ste 6, Chicago, IL 60657. Telehealth services are not currently available.
Outpatient Psychotherapy
Some people need individualized therapy because they are experiencing a psychological disorder. The focus of appointments is to identify and break old and unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling, acting, and attending, and develop new skills. You'll practice skills in and between appointments. not currently available
Guided Self-Help
This is a lower intensity intervention. You work through a structured self-help workbook based on cognitive behavioral therapies. Through regular check-in appointments with a trained cognitive behavioral therapist and routine outcome monitoring, you'll get the support you need to overcome obstacles along the way. not currently available
Peer Support Group
Not everyone needs psychotherapy. Some people just want to develop healthy habits and prevent future problems. Led by a professional trained in habit formation, you and your peers will work towards developing these habits by following tips in Atomic Habits by James Clear and meeting regularly to support one another. not currently available
- Presenting Problems -
For our guided self-help and outpatient psychotherapy services, we address the following problems: depression, anxiety, insomnia, and binge eating. Our peer support group is not intended as treatment for these problems. However, forming healthy habits can help prevent these problems from developing, especially if they are related to eating, sleeping, socializing, and relaxing.

Depression
Are you feeling down? Have you lost interest in things you once found enjoyable? The depression program provides evidence-based strategies to help you re-engage in your life, leading to improvements in your mood and daily functioning.

Anxiety
Are you feeling nervous? Do you find it hard to stop worrying? The anxiety program focuses on building skills to help you face your fears and better respond to anxiety so that anxiety—and your life in general—are more manageable.

Insomnia
Having a hard time going to or staying asleep? Do you often worry about sleep or put in extra effort to sleep? The insomnia program provides strategies to help you recondition your sleep and increase your sleep drive so that you get more restful sleep.

Binge Eating
Are you eating more than you intend? Do you feel bad about yourself after you overeat or generally dislike your body? The binge eating program helps you create a new relationship with food and yourself so that eating becomes less of a burden.
