Ready Set School

Compass’s Ready, Set, School program is designed to support children and adolescents during the challenging transition back to school. This program addresses the stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges that can arise from changes in routine, academic pressure, social adjustments, body and identity changes, and technology overload. Through evidence-based therapy and a comprehensive approach, Ready, Set, School provides students with an inclusive and supportive environment and equips them with the necessary skills to not only navigate this transition successfully but thrive.

Compass strives to set the standard of excellence for Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) Programs by providing comprehensive, compassionate, evidence-based Behavior health treatment to our patients and their families.

In 2011, Compass Health Center opened its doors to serve children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. Since then, Compass has served many thousands of patients each year, expanding to new regions, opening new specialty care offerings, and steadily expanding the variety of patients treated.

Compass's multidisciplinary treatment team consists of 50 Psychiatrists and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners, and 450 master-level clinicians. Areas of focus include Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, Trauma, PTSD, Mental Health, Pain, and Illness, Child Dysregulation, Substance Use, and School Avoidance. Compass treats patients ages 5 through adulthood in an age-appropriate setting within child, adolescent, young adult, and adult programs. Compass has locations in Chicago, Northbrook, Oakbrook and Virtual.
