Mental health therapy: finding the "best match" mental health professional

Finding a mental health professional for yourself or a loved one can be a daunting task. It is a highly personal decision that goes beyond merely looking at credentials and office hours.

If you have sought a mental health professional for yourself or a loved one, or plan to do so in the future, the founders of Agora Mental Health Network would love to learn how you search and what your needs are when searching for a mental health professional.

We are conducting focus groups to gain insight on your challenges and your needs when searching for a mental health professional. The focus groups will be conducted in Northbrook in the next 2 to 3 weeks on Tuesday evening at 7 pm or Sunday afternoon at 1 pm. Each qualified participant will receive a $50 Visa gift card for your time. If interested, call 224-515-6235.
