Mission & Vision

Cornerstone Counseling Center of Chicago (CCCOC) is a full service psychological and counseling agency located just North of the Loop in Chicago. CCCOC’s staff are Master’s and Doctoral level Christian professionals.

CCCOC’s philosophy is built around three firm commitments. The first commitment is to Christ and His Kingdom, holding Scripture as authoritative and truthful revelation of God as well as maintaining a deep respect for people and their personal faith no matter what their spiritual background and walk of life. Secondly, we are committed to the highest standards of professional and ethical conduct. And finally, we commit ourselves daily to compassion—helping all persons reach emotional healing.

CCCOC strives to reflect Christ’s model as the Great Physician and serve as an agent of healing providing psychotherapy, training, seminars and assessments to the adults, couples, children, adolescents, families, groups, churches and schools of all income levels of our local community. Furthermore, CCCOC is community-oriented; it provides on-site learning opportunities to churches, schools, employers, and community organizations and agencies. Its staff members are frequently in the community offering workshops and trainings. CCCOC is committed to serving all those in need of services. Underinsured, uninsured, and individuals unable to pay full fee for service are able to access service by using our sliding fee scale program based on income and need. Our program is made possible by generous financial gifts, grants, and in-kind contributions.

In the fall of 2002 CCCOC joined the Chicago Area Christian Training Consortium (CACTC), an American Psychological Association (APA) approved training site for pre-doctoral interns who desire to develop their skills in a Christian context. The internship provides an opportunity for students on the cutting edge of research, development and practice in the last year of their doctoral candidacy in clinical psychology, a professional, academic outlet for research, education, and practice.
