Restartt offers a highly active, skills-focused approach to therapy. Sessions don’t stop at insight—you’ll learn practical tools, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and get strategies you can use right away. Many clients begin noticing meaningful shifts within the first few sessions.

Restartt specializes in helping adults address anxiety, depression, and challenges with emotional regulation. Treatment focuses on the unhelpful beliefs and thinking patterns that fuel issues like overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, low self-esteem, burnout, and difficulty making decisions or handling stress. By targeting these underlying patterns, therapy helps create meaningful, long-lasting change.

Restartt offers both in-person therapy sessions at our location in Downtown Chicago and online therapy to all residents of Illinois and Colorado.

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) is an evidence-based, highly practical approach that focuses on identifying and challenging rigid, unhelpful beliefs that intensify emotional distress. It helps you build emotional discipline, frustration tolerance, and more balanced ways of thinking.

Restartt primarily uses Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, supported by:

• REBT

• Cognitive behavioral therapy

• Rational emotive imagery

• Motivational interviewing

• Strength-based approaches

Therapy at Restartt is active, structured, and collaborative. Instead of simply venting about problems, you’ll work through specific skills, examine core beliefs, practice emotional regulation strategies, and receive tools to use between sessions. Expect to be challenged, supported, and guided toward lasting change.

Many clients come to Restartt because previous therapy felt passive or repetitive. Here, sessions are structured and skills-based. You’ll learn how to challenge the beliefs fueling your emotions, practice techniques between sessions, and build long-term emotional regulation—not just talk about problems.

No. Restartt’s approach is designed to help you develop skills you can use independently long after therapy ends. Many clients begin applying what they learn right away and experience progress within weeks.

Getting started is simple. Begin by scheduling a complimentary 15-minute consultation, where you can share what you’re struggling with and get a feel for Restartt’s active, skills-focused approach. If it feels like a good fit, you’ll be matched with a therapist and offered your first session. From there, treatment is structured around your goals, helping you identify unhelpful beliefs, build emotional regulation skills, and start making meaningful changes right away.
