CYN provides comprehensive individual and group counseling directly in schools to reduce barriers and help students succeed academically and personally. Services are offered at no cost to families, and support continues over the summer—either virtually or at our Grayslake office—to avoid gaps in care between school sessions. Our therapists are currently placed in 19 schools across Lake County.
Students of all ages want to be heard and supported in a safe space. CYN therapists work within the school day so sessions do not interfere with class schedules or create after-hours burdens for families.
Common issues addressed include:
- Time management
- Depression and anxiety
- Substance use, including nicotine
- Bullying
Additional specialized programs include Alternative to Suspension and Sexting Prevention address unique challenges, helping students miss less school and maintain academic progress while also supporting families and school staff for long-term success.
Thank you for teaching me that putting myself first isn’t selfish and that I know what I need to do I just needed that push to do it. I am so happy that I met you when I walked into the Student Services office. You have truly changed my life for the better and I could never repay you for it. Thank you for giving me the ability to not be scared to ask for help and to know where to find it. As well as that this is my story and I have to take control of it. I will love you endlessly and I wish you all the best. Thank you again and I will miss you after graduation!
