ATTENTION: After 35 years of neuropsychological assessment and psychotherapy practice, Dr. Eschbach is embarking upon retirement. His Schaumburg office has been sold to an MD (Family Practice Medicine), and, therefore, no "in-person" appointments for testing or psychotherapy are being scheduled. A limited number of appointments are available for "telehealth" (using the HIPAA-compliant DoxyMe telehealth platform), and Dr. Eschbach will be available on a limited basis for consultation and teaching. Patients seeking long-term psychotherapy, in-person neuropsychological assessment, or any biofeedback modality are encouraged to seek services from another appropriate professional.

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a type of behavioral intervention that has been proven to help people with many different types of behavioral and emotional difficulties. It can help reduce or eliminate troubling symptoms so people can experience a better quality of life.

We conduct psychotherapy in an individual setting. Meaning that patients work directly with their assigned doctor. Sessions are typically held once weekly for approximately an hour. Psychotherapy can be short-term (i.e., only a few sessions dealing with acute issues), or long-term (i.e., months or years dealing with chronic issues). Along with their psychotherapist, patients help plan the length and goals of treatment.

Psychotherapy is a process that involves active effort. Here at NNI, we believe that the relationship between patient and psychotherapist is essential to help produce maximum benefit. 

There are many different kinds of psychotherapy. The choice depends on a few factors including the following: the patient's clinical presentation, personal circumstances and limitations, preference, and the psychotherapist's area of expertise. We may combine elements from different approaches tailored to the needs of the person receiving treatment. The Cognitive-Behavioral / Humanistic philosophy and approach we embrace tends to be very interactive, involving a good deal of communication on the part of the patient and the therapist. Unlike other approaches in which the patient "free associates" and says whatever "comes to mind" (and the therapist sits silently, occasionally nodding with very few utterances), our approach quickly leads to the interaction between the patient and therapist that is a microcosm of the "real world." The interactive nature of this approach leads to resolution of patient problems in a most direct manner as the patient and therapist "work through" their therapeutic relationship.
