Restoration Center Chicago

What Restoration Center Chicago does

Restoration Center Chicago is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, faith-based holistic wellness center headquartered in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood at 1200 W. 35th Street. Founded by Licensed Clinical Psychologist Samantha Lussier, PsyD, the organization delivers an integrated three-pillar service model spanning Soul Health (individual/couples/family therapy, EMDR, Christian counseling), Spirit Health (Pneuma Energeia prayer room experiences and Prophetic Strategy life and business coaching), and Body Health (naturopathic medicine, acupuncture, oncology acupuncture, and facial rejuvenation). A multidisciplinary team of 11+ licensed clinicians and therapists, supported by an Operational Manager and a five-member Board of Directors, delivers these services in-person and virtually (Illinois-only for therapy; nationally and internationally for Prophetic Strategy).

The clinical foundation rests on evidence-based modalities including CBT, EMDR, and attachment theory, layered with Christian worldview integration that distinguishes the practice from secular mental health providers. Proprietary frameworks include the "Holistic Trinity Model" (Spirit, Soul, Body) and the branded Pneuma Energeia prayer room concept facilitating experiential spiritual encounters. The organization publishes thought leadership via an active Substack newsletter ("Take A Step Toward Restoration") and a blog, while maintaining community-driven marketing through Instagram, Facebook, and church partnerships.

Revenue is generated through a hybrid model: insurance-billed therapy sessions (in-network with BCBS PPO and PBA through Lawndale Christian Health Center; out-of-network billing for Aetna and Cigna), self-pay services priced at $150 per session for Pneuma Energeia and Prophetic Strategy, fee-for-service body health treatments, and tax-deductible donations supporting reduced-rate access for uninsured clients. The Holistic Wellness Package offers customized multi-day retreat combinations priced on application. Geographic reach spans 25+ Chicago neighborhoods and suburbs, with no disclosed funding, parent company, or institutional investors.

Broad incumbents

• BetterHelp: Largest online therapy platform offering licensed counseling nationwide via subscription. Competes with RCC's therapy line but offers secular, national-scale virtual delivery versus RCC's faith-integrated, Illinois-limited model.
• Canyon Ranch: Established luxury wellness retreat brand offering integrative health, spa, and holistic programs. Comparable to RCC's Holistic Wellness Package offering but at multi-property resort scale.
• Miraval: Premium wellness resort offering mindfulness, holistic spa, and integrative health programming. Comparable to RCC's body-mind-spirit wellness positioning but as a destination resort versus RCC's clinic-anchored model.
• Talkspace: Public online therapy and psychiatry platform with national virtual reach and insurance partnerships. Comparable on therapy delivery mechanism but operates at much larger scale and lacks faith integration.
• Focus on the Family: Large, established Christian organization offering counseling referrals, pastoral care, and family wellness resources at national scale. Operates broadly in the same faith-based family wellness space but at much greater scale than RCC.

Direct peers

• Meier Clinics: Network of Christian counseling clinics providing faith-integrated psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families. Comparable faith-based outpatient clinical therapy model with multiple geographic locations.
• The Center: A Place of HOPE: Faith-based outpatient mental health treatment center offering therapy, EMDR, and integrative wellness services from a Christian worldview. Directly comparable faith-integrated, multi-disciplinary clinical model to RCC.
• New Life Counseling & Coaching: Christian-based counseling and life coaching practice offering faith-integrated therapy services. Directly comparable combination of Christian counseling and life/purpose coaching offered at RCC.
• Faithful Counseling: Faith-based online counseling platform owned by BetterHelp that connects clients with licensed Christian counselors. Highly comparable to RCC's Christian counseling and EMDR offerings, with national virtual reach versus RCC's Illinois-only virtual scope.
• Soul Shepherding: Christian spiritual direction and soul care organization offering contemplative prayer ministry and pastoral counseling. Comparable to RCC's Pneuma Energeia prayer room and spiritual health service line.
