A Collaborative Therapy Referral Partner with Expertise You Can Trust

When you refer a patient to SpringSource, you can feel confident that you are sending them to a clinic that provides nuanced, expert care, delivered with the utmost respect, compassion, and personal attention.

​

​We understand that referring a patient doesn't mean stepping out of their care entirely. We're glad to coordinate with you on treatment planning, provide updates as appropriate, and work as part of a broader care team for patients with complex or co-occurring needs.

 

We work closely with physicians, nutritionists, psychiatrists, school counselors, and other professionals to deliver coordinated, specialized treatment that fits the needs of the patient. We see referrals as the beginning of a partnership.

Why Providers Refer to SpringSource

​

• Specialized Clinical Expertise: Our clinic is led and founded by pioneers in the Illinois behavioral health field, and our therapists are deeply credentialed experts in their specializations. We have the knowledge and experience to tailor treatments to each individual. Care is current, evidence-based, and adaptable to evolving needs of the patient.

• True Collaboration: We communicate proactively with referring providers, sharing relevant updates (within the bounds of consent and confidentiality) so you stay informed about your patient's progress and can coordinate care effectively.

• Patient Advocacy: We advocate for patients in every aspect of care, including weight-inclusive treatment that doesn't assume a person's body size determines their risk or diagnosis, and individualized treatment plans that respect patient autonomy.

• Multidisciplinary Coordination: We regularly collaborate with medical providers, nutritionists, and psychiatric prescribers to ensure your patient's physical and psychological care are aligned, not siloed.

• A Range of Care Levels: From individual therapy and harm reduction programs for teens and adults, to an Adult Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), we can match the intensity of care to your patient's clinical needs, and help guide decisions about step-up or step-down treatment.

• Responsive Intake Process: We aim to make referrals simple and fast, with timely intake scheduling so your patients don't fall through the cracks during a vulnerable transition.

• Virtual, Hybrid & In-Person Options: With in-person care in Chicago and Northbrook and virtual therapy throughout Illinois, we can accommodate patients regardless of geographic or logistical barriers.
