Family Fun at the NSYMCA Fall Fest ‘Trunk or Treat’

The Chicago Mind Solutions team was excited to participate in the North Shore YMCA’s (NSYMCA) annual Fall Fest ‘Trunk or Treat’ even — hundreds of local families attended the celebration.

At our trunk, trick or treaters saw our team dressed in costumes and decorated with a theme inspired by the film “Inside Out”. The colorful characters Joy, Anger, Sadness, Fear, Embarrassment, Anxiety, Disgust helped connect with kids and families. We enjoyed starting conversations about the importance of emotional awareness, understanding, and mental health – core values shared by both Chicago Mind Solutions and the YMCA. These conversations help to destigmatize emerging therapies for mental health, such as neurofeedback therapy. As a bonus, we are proud to have placed second in the decorating contest! Most of all, we enjoyed having the opportunity to share how our neuropsychological testing and art therapy help kids stay successful in school and at home. 

The NSYMCA Fall Fest is a heartwarming community event, and we were proud to engage with the community in such a meaningful way.
