Advocate Lutheran General Hospital

Supporting people across age groups with mental health and addiction concerns, Advocate Lutheran General Hospital Behavioral Health Center is a hospital-based program near downtown Chicago. The center treats depression, anxiety and panic disorders, eating disorders, addiction, sleep disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and cognitive concerns through outpatient, day treatment (PHP), and inpatient care. Its services include addiction care and neuropsychiatric assessment for cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease.

Gather Care Around Healing

Through a whole-person approach, Advocate Lutheran General Hospital brings together psychiatry, psychology, social work, addiction counseling, or pastoral care when needed. Therapy includes treatment goal setting, group psychotherapy, psychoeducation, occupational therapy, expressive therapy, coping skills groups, medication education, relaxation groups, individual therapy, and family therapy. Case managers help coordinate treatment goals, monitor progress, plan discharge, and connect individuals with outpatient therapy for continued support.

Continue Care with Structure

For adults who need more support than weekly therapy but do not require full-time hospitalization, the Adult Day Hospital-Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a focused bridge to stability. The program serves the Chicago community with short-term, structured care during acute mental health episodes. It helps adults build stability, strengthen daily coping skills, prevent inpatient hospitalization, and continue care after a hospital stay.
