Astute Counseling & Wellness: Empowering Mental Health, Honoring Whole-Body Wellness

Chicago, IL – Astute Counseling & Wellness Services, a trailblazer in holistic mental health care, offers a unique blend of therapy and wellness practices, becoming the first of its kind to integrate mental health care and holistic healing under one roof. Located in the heart of Lakeview, Chicago, Astute Counseling & Wellness Services is dedicated to empowering individuals through a whole-body approach to mental wellness. With a serene and spa-like atmosphere, the 8,000-square-foot facility fosters healing for the mind and body, with a focus on dignity, pride, and accessibility for all identities.

Astute Counseling & Wellness Services was founded by Rebecca E. Tenzer, an esteemed mental health advocate and Head Clinician, who has been featured in Vogue for her work as a mental health expert and holistic wellness entrepreneur. Under her leadership, Astute has redefined what it means to care for mental health, going beyond traditional therapy by offering a range of wellness services, including yoga, massage therapy, Reiki, sound healing, acupuncture, somatic movement, and breathwork. These services are integrated with evidence-based therapeutic practices to treat the whole person and not just the symptoms.

"We believe that true transformation continues outside of the four walls of therapy. Therapy is an essential component for positive mental health, but it doesn't stop there," says Tenzer. "At Astute, we offer a comprehensive wellness experience that empowers individuals to reconnect with themselves and heal from within, physically, emotionally, and mentally."

The wellness center is an inclusive space for all, offering individual and couples therapy, trauma-informed care, and healing for various issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, and PTSD. Astute Counseling & Wellness Services accepts BCBS and United PPO insurance plans, ensuring that top-notch mental health care is accessible to a wide range of clients. With a focus on inclusivity, Astute offers a warm and welcoming environment where clients can feel safe and supported, no matter their background or identity.

A standout feature of Astute Counseling & Wellness Services is the tranquil Zen Garden, which provides a peaceful outdoor space for classes, workshops, and relaxation. This serene space is just one of the ways Astute brings holistic wellness into the lives of its clients, offering a sanctuary where healing is personalized, dynamic, and empowering.

In addition to therapy services, Astute offers curated wellness experiences, a boutique retail space, and weekly classes and workshops that provide clients with the tools they need to live their best lives. The boutique features a retail shop with therapeutic tools, self-care products, and locally crafted goods, supporting the mission of the wellness center while providing clients with a unique retail therapy experience.

Astute Counseling & Wellness Services is passionate about creating a nurturing environment where individuals can grow and thrive. Whether you are seeking therapeutic support, body and mind transformation, or simply a safe space to breathe and reconnect, Astute is dedicated to walking beside its clients on their journey to mental wellness and personal growth.
