Ardent Center, Chicago

To Ardent Center's founder, Dr. Scott Terry, a therapy session is as much about shared understanding as it is about dispensing advice. His holistic sessions center on listening, asking probing questions, although he also offers guidance tailored to the client's specific struggle.

At Ardent Center, that struggle could be anything. The practice deals with ailments from substance abuse to anxiety in individual sessions. In couples counseling and divorce therapy, meanwhile, the team focuses on relationship issues, such as whether you have met each other yet.
