Why Therapy Still Works - Existential therapy takes a different perspective from the Freudians. The psychologist, Viktor Frankl, famously wrote, “Man’s Search for Meaning.” The book recounts his experiences as a prisoner in the holocaust during World War II. His way of coping, and ultimately surviving, was to retain his sense of freedom despite having lost almost everything . His sense was that you always have a choice. Even in the direst circumstances, even when you’ve found yourself in a living hell, you still have freedom. You have the freedom to choose what’s meaningful. Even in the small things – say acts of kindness – you keep your vision and autonomy alive. In other words, existential therapy is about developing freedom. A sense that, no matter what, you can always choose how to think and respond, with your values as your guiding compass. When you consider what’s truly important to you, does this awaken something within you? Despite that, it doesn’t exactly address whether there is true free will. https://www.core-chicago.com/core-words/the-different-systems-in-a-systems-approach-to-therapy monthly 0.5 2025-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/95b8da7d-5e72-4065-97d5-64934857b713/Screenshot+2025-03-25+101617.jpg CORE WORDS -

Psychotherapists at CORE employ a range of techniques based on experiential relationship building, dialogue, communications and behavior change that are designed to improve a client's mental health, and/or to improve group relationships (such as in a family). Change happens by connecting with clients at their level, establishing an alliance, formulating an understanding of their self image and world view, understanding why they behave the way they do. In actively working to promote change in client systems, therapists at CORE help clients modify their existing patterns of interaction that are linked to their problems. In essence, its all about connection and communication. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643734180469-Q8S4XDS6V03TS7ZRQ5J1/unsplash-image-qg6MDcCWBfM.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643734611601-6MNNR4HK4MSE0YP5JTOK/unsplash-image-ktPKyUs3Qjs.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643734656521-2YF07BLHM6Z77R1X60DT/unsplash-image-f_aHTIof44U.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643734740274-47C1QHEJE6L1RB04HQC9/unsplash-image-Yui5vfKHuzs.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643831859343-DJ71X3E3XCKKGVQZP4G7/unsplash-image-doplSDELX7E.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643831995836-QBMFJTL54SU9QOS2LE7R/unsplash-image-gp8BLyaTaA0.jpg COMMON QUESTIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.core-chicago.com/schedule-appointment daily 0.75 2022-03-07 https://www.core-chicago.com/core-evanston daily 0.75 2025-09-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/955592af-f33d-49ff-99b9-c6423bbe46c4/IMG_6689.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Dr. BJ Rudd’s Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643656718642-CEFQMSRXS7MSHLGZLL36/image7.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Ajit Samudra’s Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/dfaf42af-787d-4e10-bd1d-613be911db2c/IMG_6316.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Dr. Monisha Berkowski’s Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/dc429e9f-6022-4a50-9f9b-46a8b05aa4dc/IMG_6319.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Waiting Room https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/cc73ab8a-e806-4124-ad72-7a483f9c6f34/IMG_4451.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Dr. Preston Rice’s Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/8add1d13-f9a9-4b48-9f67-6296e3fcf711/IMG_6315.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Cameron Stamm’s Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/a3aeec90-aa20-45b6-8fc3-35a9644e4527/IMG_6313.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Amara Smith Speights’ Office https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/c4de2a96-c1fd-404f-8c22-8fed54d651d4/IMG_6329.jpg CORE-EVANSTON - Make it stand out Coffee Bar https://www.core-chicago.com/services daily 0.75 2025-04-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643657146348-XGACFGSK7ONLJDMGP1RY/unsplash-image-FqqaJI9OxMI.jpg SERVICES - CORE offers the following comprehensive psychological services: Individual, Family, and Group Therapy to children, adolescents, and adults Diagnostic Evaluation Crisis Management and Intervention Educational and Training Seminars Couples' Therapy and Workshops Consultation Low Sliding Scale therapy and testing with supervised therapists/diagnosticians https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643657217784-94TTVRUN0Z4PEKRFV110/unsplash-image-erCPgyXNlto.jpg SERVICES - Treatment specialization includes: Depression Anxiety Couple/Marital Therapy Family Therapy Child & Adolescent Therapy Parenting Support Relationship Patterns/Challenges Life Transitions Grief Counseling Work and Career Challenges Stress Management Addiction & Recovery Conflict Resolution Trauma LGBTQIA+ Challenges Acculturation Challenges https://www.core-chicago.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2022-03-02 https://www.core-chicago.com/home daily 1.0 2022-02-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643656953722-06YOZ5108AAK6TLG50LF/unsplash-image-_AdUs32i0jc.jpg HOME - *CURRENTLY OFFERING TELEHEALTH SERVICES*** The Center Of Relational Empowerment helps individuals, couples and families strengthen their core selves, and in doing so, empowers them to strengthen their relationships with others.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. Therapy and counseling can help uncover long-standing patterns and behaviors that can get in the way of feeling fulfilled in our relationships with ourselves and others. We believe that no family or cultural system operates the same way and that there is no "right" way to live life. Therefore, it is our goal to understand the problems you are facing through your own context in order to find the meanings and solutions that work best for you. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, we look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. Please call or email us for an individual, couples' or family therapy consultation today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643656726163-18CFNR51AQP3VBO4VQX8/unsplash-image-7noZJ_4nhU8.jpg HOME “Emotional dependency is not immature or pathological; it is our greatest strength.” ― Sue Johnson https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/1643656726167-Z7QB2PK30BTIQXRU2L2S/unsplash-image-Zyx1bK9mqmA.jpg HOME "Imbalanced systems, whether internal or external, will tend to polarize." ― Richard C.

The goal is to help the client to feel empowered to handle previously overwhelming problems or difficulties by providing them the space to grow in a nurturing environment. CORE offers the most effective, up-to-date, well-researched, and professionally executed interventions, and assessments. CORE is committed to helping individuals, couples, and families address their varied psychological needs. Through the use of evaluation, consultation, education, and therapy, CORE offers a dynamic and culturally sensitive approach in an affirmative environment. OUR "CORE" VALUES All of us are multifaceted, as we have different aspects to our personalities. At CORE, we celebrate all aspects of our diversity as well as our similarities. Our practice is based on Self Leadership, Systemic, and Contextual Theories. The foundation of these theories is based in the idea that people have an innate capacity, wisdom, and intuitive knowledge that may be blocked by fears, while also acknowledging the specific circumstances and elements in a person or family's life that have led to these outcomes. By working to release these fears, we are tapping into the clients’ internal resources. Therefore, a client can feel empowered and bring about deep inner changes rather than superficial symptom-focused change. https://www.core-chicago.com/dr-amanda-rios daily 0.75 2024-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f835f592a82d5516818665/4ea220ad-0656-49cd-997a-0c026d709b52/Amanda+M.+Rios+-+Portrait.JPG Dr. Amanda Rios - Make it stand out Dr. Khalid is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in the State of Illinois who specializes in individual, couples and family therapy with children, adolescents, and adults of diverse backgrounds.
