Telehealth services have revolutionized the healthcare industry by allowing you to enjoy care from the comfort of your home — reducing stress, disease transmission, and healthcare costs. With telepsychiatry services from Behavioral Services Center, you can reap the benefits of this advance in health care as you seek psychiatric help.
Since 2005, the Behavioral Services Center of Chicago, IL, has provided dedicated mental health care to Chicago area residents. We’re still working to provide the mental health care that Chicagoland residents need and deserve.

We do all we can to give you the mental health help you need most, including offering telepsychiatry visits.
Telepsychiatry Visits for Truly Integrative Health Care
At Behavioral Services Center, we believe that every patient is unique, with unique mental health challenges that interact in completely unique ways, and so needs a unique set of treatments to truly heal. As part of our integrative approach to creating a unique treatment regimen and protocol for every patient, we offer telepsychiatry visits to our patients so you can see your psychiatrist conveniently no matter where you are.
Your telepsychiatry appointment matches you with a real psychiatrist who will help you address your mental health concerns, prescribing medication where appropriate. Your medical information is always secure and HIPAA protected, so your appointment is wholly discreet and your privacy protected.

Expanding Access to Comprehensive Virtual Psychiatric Care Across Chicagoland
At Behavioral Services Center, getting dedicated mental health treatment shouldn’t require fighting rush-hour traffic or restructuring your entire workday. Our online psychiatric services bridge the gap between clinical excellence and modern convenience, making expert care accessible right from the comfort of your couch. From thorough diagnostic assessments and initial consultations to long-term medication management and specialized treatment adjustments, our board-certified specialists deliver attentive care tailored directly to your life.
To make sure our community stays fully supported both online and in person, Behavioral Services Center operates across 2 primary physical locations: Skokie and Oak Brook. While our telepsychiatry services give residents throughout Chicago, IL complete virtual flexibility, having physical offices nearby means you always have a dedicated local facility for hybrid care, in-person check-ins, or local administrative support.
True healing rarely happens in isolation. Alongside individual psychiatric appointments, many of our patients thrive by combining medical care with therapeutic peer support. We frequently encourage individuals to participate in our dedicated group counseling sessions to process life transitions, build practical coping mechanisms, overcome social anxiety, manage stress, and build lasting community connections. Combining virtual psychiatric visits with focused group therapy gives you a well-rounded recovery plan designed for real-world resilience.
Taking control of your mental health should feel straightforward and completely accessible. When you are ready to partner with clinicians who listen to your story and respect your time, our team is ready to walk through the process with you.
