Our Mission

The Carlton Center is a not-for-profit, faith-based organization committed to uplifting and empowering youth and families in Chicagoland by restoring healthy relationships, delivering evidence-based therapy for individuals, couples, and families, and partnering with local communities, including Spanish-speaking neighbors, to help people live a better story.

Our Process

Contact us via the Appointment Request form, (630) 282-8578, or info@thecarltoncenter.org. We’ll match you with a therapist and verify coverage. You’ll complete secure intake forms, then a 50–55 minute first session sets goals and a plan (CBT/relationship-focused, faith-integrated by request) in person or via telehealth. We typically meet weekly or biweekly, review progress, adjust as needed, and wrap with a maintenance plan. Find us at 610 E. North Ave., Carol Stream, IL 60188, serving DuPage County.

If you’re in crisis, call 988 or 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.

Let's Work Together

Let’s work together to help you or your family feel better, communicate better, and live better. Tell us what you’re facing, and we’ll match you with a therapist, verify your insurance, and get your first session on the calendar—often within a week. Start now through the Appointment Request form, call (630) 282-8578, or email info@thecarltoncenter.org.
