About Blue Kite Wellness
Therapy that fits into your life, not the other way around
Some weeks you need a quiet room away from home. Other weeks, getting across town just isn’t happening. Work runs late, the kids are sick, or getting out the door feels like too much. That shouldn’t be the reason you stop getting help.
With Blue Kite Wellness you can meet your therapist in person, by telehealth, or a mix of both. You keep the same therapist either way, and you can change formats when your life changes.
Wheaton & Chicago
In person and telehealth
What we help with
Our therapists work with kids, teens, adults and families, using proven approaches like CBT, DBT and play therapy for younger children.
Anxiety and stress
Worry that won't switch off, panic and trouble sleeping. We help you understand what's driving it and calm it in ways that hold up in real life.
Depression
Feeling heavy, flat or stuck, and losing interest in things you used to enjoy. We help you take the next small step, then the one after that.
Trauma and PTSD
Painful experiences that still shape your days, worked through at your pace, with you in control of what you share.
Kids, teens and families
Behavior, school stress, big feelings and family conflict. We work with kids and parents together.
ADHD and focus
Practical tools for attention, organization and emotions, for kids, teens and adults.
Grief and life changes
Loss, divorce, moves, new parenthood and other big transitions. Support helps you find your footing again.
Your choice

In person or telehealth?
Which option is right for you?
In person is often the better fit if you don’t have a private space at home, if your child is young and does best with play-based therapy, if you’re going through a crisis, or if your internet is unreliable.
Telehealth works well if your schedule is tight, you live farther from our offices, leaving the house is part of what’s hard, or you’d simply rather talk from home. Sessions can be by video or by phone.
Not sure? Your therapist will help you decide, and you can switch whenever it makes sense.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Illinois Medicaid cover telehealth therapy?
Yes. Illinois Medicaid and its health plans cover mental health telehealth the same way they cover in-person visits. We accept Aetna Better Health, Blue Cross Community Health Plans, CountyCare, Meridian, Molina and YouthCare, plus most major private plans.
Do I have to be in Illinois for telehealth sessions?
Yes. Because we’re an Illinois practice, you need to be physically in Illinois during each session.
What do I need for a telehealth session?
For video, a phone, tablet or computer with a camera and a steady internet connection. For phone sessions, just your phone. Either way, a private place to talk.
Is telehealth private?
Yes. We use a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, and your sessions are kept as confidential as in-person visits.
Is online therapy as helpful as in-person?
For many people and many concerns, yes. If your therapist thinks in-person care would serve you better, they’ll tell you.
Can my child do telehealth?
Often, yes. It depends on age and needs, and a parent may need to be nearby. Younger kids sometimes do better in person.
Can I switch between in-person and telehealth?
Yes. Many clients mix both, depending on their week.
