EQ Perspectives in Burr Ridge, Illinois, is a partial hospitalization center specializing in helping children 4 and older and adults suffering from mental health disorders. Bethany Potempa, PMHNP, and her dedicated team offer comprehensive, personalized care in-person and by telehealth.

EQ Perspectives also delivers partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) and intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) to young people 13-18 with severe mental health problems.

EQ Perspectives’ licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners diagnose and treat depression, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), personality disorders, and substance use disorders.

The team takes an integrative approach, using traditional treatments like medication management while emphasizing emotional intelligence development. They recognize that life can be challenging, stressful, and often unfair, and trying to manage while struggling with mental illness is a demanding challenge.

Bethany and the EQ Perspectives team evaluate the physical, relational, spiritual, intellectual, and emotional aspects of patients’ lives to identify imbalances. They use treatments like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and medication management. GeneSight® testing supports more accurate prescribing using information from their patients’ DNA.

The team supports people through life’s ups and downs with accessible mental health services, assisting patients within and beyond Westchester who can’t make it to the clinic for in-person appointments.
