Linden Oaks Behavioral Health’s Mokena offices reopen

Linden Oaks Behavioral Health’s Outpatient Center in Mokena at 9697 W. 191st St. has reopened following a temporary closure due to COVID-19. The Center is open Monday – Friday, 7:30 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Linden Oaks in Mokena offers in-person mental health and substance abuse services for adults and adolescents, including outpatient services for issues including but not limited to anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and addictions.

“Stress and anxiety often increase with unanswered questions, and the coronavirus pandemic and other issues we’re facing have raised a lot of uncertainty,” says Gina Sharp, President & CEO, Linden Oaks Behavioral Health. “There is no right or wrong way to react during these unprecedented times. The tension, questions about the future and social isolation that the pandemic brings could lead to anxiety, depression, alcohol/drug abuse or domestic violence.

“We all deal with stress in different ways. Working with someone at Linden Oaks, whether it’s through a visit with a psychiatrist, an individual therapy session, or seeking help in a more structured program, such as inpatient or day programming, our team is available to listen to your concerns, nudge you with questions, teach you new skills to manage various issues and help you build a plan to get back to being successful.”

Linden Oaks provides help virtually and in-person, with patient safety as a priority. Edward-Elmhurst Health (EEH) has developed a Safety Commitment to reinforce and communicate the steps the health system is taking – a commitment that EEH employees put safety ahead of everything that’s done.
