Who We Serve
Nissa is dedicated to supporting Jewish children from kindergarten to high school in the greater Chicago area who struggle with behavioral and emotional challenges.
We understand the impact of families, educators, and communities. We offer empathetic guidance, resources, and support to all. With compassion, we provide a listening ear, a helping hand, and a supportive shoulder to empower each individual to take the next step towards healing, growth, resilience, and walking alongside them on their journey.
Nissa was able to give us clarity when we were uncertain about how to proceed with our son's educational path.

Individual
At Nissa, we understand that every child develops at their own pace and may face unique challenges. Our supportive approach is tailored to meet each child's distinct needs, fostering curiosity, emotional well-being, and providing personalized guidance, resources, and assistance. We empower them to be self-sufficient with the tools and knowledge to overcome obstacles, build confidence, and thrive academically and socially. By acknowledging and addressing their individual struggles, we help each child unlock their full potential and reach new heights of personal success.

Being able to talk through the challenge my son (and me, as his mother!) is going through was so therapeutic.

Family
When a child faces challenges, the entire family can feel the impact, leading to increased stress and tension at home. At Nissa, we recognize the vital role that family plays in a child's life. That's why we offer comprehensive support designed to empower parents and the entire extended family with the tools, resources, and guidance they need to create a nurturing environment. By educating and equipping family members, we empower them to build a strong foundation of support, nurture healthy relationships, and develop the resilience needed to meet their child's unique needs and thrive together as a family.

Nissa will positively impact our students so that they can stay in our Jewish schools.

School
When a child in your classroom struggles, it can impact the entire class or school, requiring a balance between supporting that child and meeting the needs of your other students. Nissa is here to assist teachers and principals, ensuring everyone can succeed. We approach behavioral and emotional challenges as a language to be understood, rather than problems to be managed. Through collaboration, we can become fluent in this language, providing support and guidance for students, teachers, and administrators alike, empowering each other to excel.
