At Arbor Clinical Associates, we seek to provide an environment of support and shelter in which each person will be able to explore and grow.

An arbor is defined as “a refuge formed of or covered by vines or branches.”  While an arbor can be still and quiet, it is not stagnant, but rather a place filled with growth and movement. Our hope is that this will be your experience with us at Arbor Clinical Associates.

Since 2001, Arbor Clinical Associates has been serving the greater Chicagoland area providing mental health services to adults, adolescents and children at our three locations in Wheaton, Northfield, and on the north side of Chicago.


To be invited into someone’s life is an amazing opportunity for change and growth.
— Robert Auger, Director of Staff Services & Program Development
