Cira Center for Behavioral Health, PC Cira Center for Behavioral Health (CCBH) is a small group practice that has a team of specialized th We offer individual, family & group therapy services.

Cira Center for Behavioral Health is a group practice with locations in Chicago's Loop and Oak Park. We at Cira Center for Behavioral Health believe that therapy is based on research & science, both of which are incredibly important, but know that nothing is more important than feeling heard & understood without any judgment. When a strong, supportive relationship is combined with direct feedback & skill building, people change & lives improve. We primarily work with adults who are struggling with major life changes (divorce, starting a family, etc), stress, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem & trauma. Both myself & my associates, Dr. Gehr & Dr. Brandenborg, specialize in treating trauma & women's issues. I am also certified in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidenced based intervention that has been proven effective for treating chronic as well as single incident trauma.

This 2-hour virtual workshop, facilitated by Amber Walker, MA, helps high-functioning women who feel emotionally exhausted reconnect with themselves. It focuses on slowing down, rebuilding self-trust, and redefining strength in a sustainable way.

Rather than focusing on productivity, performance, or coping skills, the workshop centers on emotional recalibration — helping participants slow down, name what they’ve been holding, reconnect with self-trust, and redefine strength in a way that is sustainable.
