About Connections Health

Connections Health is an outpatient mental health practice offering individual, couples, family, and group therapy. Connections Health works with people of all ages; adolescents, college and graduate students at Northwestern University and other schools, young adults, and the LGBTQIA+ community are a special focus.
Connections Health counselors collaborate in a one-on-one relationship to deepen clients’ understanding and capacity to create change within their lives. Using a combination of insight-oriented, cognitive, and behavioral therapy approaches, clients embark on a journey of exploration, learning and growth.
Connections Health supports clients in repairing, building and strengthening their romantic and family relationships. Counseling focuses on developing emotional awareness, communication and conflict resolution skills, and interpersonal effectiveness so clients can develop more closeness and fulfillment at any stage. Topics cover a range of issues, such as: sex and intimacy, premarital preparation, value differences, life stressors and transitions, infidelity, separation and divorce, and more.
Group counseling allows clients to share concerns, receive support, and learn from each other while exploring a wide range of perspectives with other people facing similar challenges. Clients can gain self-awareness and skill-building, and benefit from the energy and connection a group environment brings. Group topics include: Trauma Support, Eating Disorder Recovery, Cultivating Resilience (Dealing with Stress), College Student Support, Queer Student Support, Building Social Confidence, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Connections Health accept Medicaid?
SAMHSA data does not list Medicaid among this facility's accepted payment types. Call (847) 565-6400 directly to confirm — coverage may have changed since the last SAMHSA sync. You can also browse other OH centers that accept Medicaid.
What level of care does Connections Health offer?
Does Connections Health have specialized programs?
SAMHSA data does not list specialized populations. The facility may still offer specialty tracks — confirm directly.
What therapy methods does Connections Health use?
Specific therapy approaches are not listed in SAMHSA data. Contact the facility for clinical details.
How do I start treatment at Connections Health?
Call the facility directly at (847) 565-6400 for an intake assessment. Our free 24/7 helpline (+1 (205) 973-2878) can also help you compare programs, verify insurance, and navigate options. No physician referral is required.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
