Conferences
Hopefully one of these conferences aligns with your interests (and your locale).
We haven't catalogued any mental health conferences for 2027 in Illinois yet.
That's almost certainly a gap on our end, not a lack of activity in Illinois. Therapists, counselors, social workers, and psychologists are gathering all the time -- whether it's a CEU workshop, a state association conference, a clinical training, or a multi-day summit -- and we want this page to reflect that. If you've attended a mental health conference, training, or continuing education event in Illinois, please let us know so we can add it for other clinicians searching the same way you did.
Hosting something yourself for therapists, counselors, or other mental health professionals? We'd love to feature it. Send us a link to the event page along with the basics -- dates, format, location, CEU info if applicable -- and we'll handle the rest. We never charge organizers to list.
What to expect for 2027
Here's a forecast of upcoming events.
Because 2027 is still ahead, our directory of mental health conferences in Illinois is far from complete. Most organizers -- state associations, training institutes, EMDR and CBT certifying bodies, private CEU providers -- announce their dates throughout the calendar year, often only six to nine months out. So this page will keep filling in as the year approaches. A good chunk of what gets listed here comes from the associations that license and support mental health professionals: ACA and AMHCA for counselors, NASW for social workers, APA for psychologists, AAMFT for marriage and family therapists, along with the smaller modality-specific groups (EMDRIA, ABCT, ISST-D, and others). Their Illinois chapters add another full layer of conferences and CEU workshops on top of that. Looking back at 2026, we ended up with roughly 11 conferences in Illinois once the dust settled. The cadence tends to repeat year over year, so 2027 will likely fill in to a comparable size. The most popular month was April (3 events), which tracks with the typical spring and fall conference seasons for therapists. For a bit more granularity: in 2026, April had 3 mental health conferences in Illinois, and July had 3. That gives you a sense of how the calendar typically clusters. And if your organization is planning something for therapists in Illinois in 2027, we'd be glad to feature it as soon as you have dates.
