Therapy in Lake Forest, Illinois
Individual therapy, couples therapy, and ERP for OCD — in-person on the Chicago North Shore and via telehealth across Illinois, Texas, Arkansas, and Kansas.
North Shore Therapy for High-Achieving Adults
The North Shore runs on high performance. The pressure to maintain — careers, marriages, appearances, schedules — is relentless. And for a lot of driven, capable adults, the gap between how things look and how things actually feel has quietly become unsustainable.
That's exactly who Nix Baker Wellness is built for.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety that never fully quiets, ADHD you've been white-knuckling through for years, OCD that no one around you knows about, or a relationship that's reached a breaking point — this is a place where you can be honest about what's actually going on.
Therapy that respects your intelligence and finally meets you at your level.
Services Available at the Lake Forest Office
ADHD Therapy for Adults
Therapy for high-achieving adults with ADHD who are functioning — but at a cost. We help you understand how your brain actually works and build strategies that fit your real life, not a generic productivity template. → Learn more about ADHD Therapy
Anxiety Therapy for Professionals
Perfectionism, overthinking, chronic stress, and burnout aren't personality traits — they're patterns. Anxiety therapy helps you find steadiness without losing your drive → Learn more about Anxiety Therapy
OCD & ERP Therapy

Discernment Counseling
For couples where one person is leaning out, and the other isn't sure. A brief, structured process focused on clarity — not pressure toward any particular outcome. → Learn more about Discernment Counseling
