About the Centers for Family Change:
The Centers for Family Change was established in 1985. Initially, we focused on working with children, adolescents and families. As we have grown over the past 40 years we have expanded our services to address a wide range of issues. However, our commitment to providing high-quality cost-effective services is unchanged. We continue to strive to offer services that are respectful of our clients, collaborative in nature, and attuned to the effects of family, social and political factors on our clients’ lives. Our therapists use evidence-based treatment approaches, receive in-service trainings and consultation, and actively solicit feedback from all of our clients to help us better evaluate the effectiveness of our services.
New Additions to Our Team:
Jenna Halverson
Ms. Halverson is the newest clinician to join our staff. Ms. Halverson comes to the Centers for Family Change after working in a variety of settings (including schools, community mental health centers and healthcare facilities). She has worked with a broad range of clients including children, teens and adults. She will be working under the supervision of senior staff until fully licensed. She is currently working out of our Oakbrook office and will also provide teletherapy services.
