Rachel Purcell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe that successful therapy happens after forming a solid foundation between the therapist and the client. My goal is to create a safe environment for you to be your full authentic self. My approach is client-centered and evidence informed, with a focus on helping clients navigate emotional challenges and improve overall well-being. I also utilize healthy humor in my sessions as I believe it can be very healing in the therapeutic process. I specialize in treating teens and young adults with OCD, anxiety disorders, depression, and self-esteem issues.

Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
Hello and welcome! I'm Dr. Pam Heilman, a licensed clinical psychologist providing telehealth therapy to adults throughout Illinois.
I believe that therapy works best when it combines the science of effective treatment with a genuine, collaborative relationship. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, but I also recognize that every person brings their own experiences, strengths, values, and goals to the therapy process. Together, we will work to understand the challenges you're facing and identify practical strategies that can help you move forward.
Many of the individuals I work with struggle with anxiety, OCD, health anxiety, social anxiety, or the overwhelming stress that can come from feeling stuck in patterns of worry, fear, or self-doubt. These experiences can be exhausting and isolating, but they are also highly treatable. My goal is to help you develop the skills and confidence needed to respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions so they no longer have as much control over your life.

Meg Lukan
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LCPC
Hi, I'm Meg! I help capable, driven people pause, untangle what’s been weighing them down, and find their way back to a version of themselves that feels clearer, lighter, and more grounded. Many of my clients look "fine" on the outside but may be dealing with overwhelming and anxious feelings they aren't quite sure how to navigate. With over three decades of experience in counseling, I bring my humor, positive attitude, and clinical experience to encourage clients to embrace their struggles, understand their patterns, and shift their mindsets.

Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
Hi, I’m Eric Tivers, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider based in Illinois. I’m also AuDHD, queer, and deeply committed to helping other neurodivergent adults build lives that feel more grounded, authentic, and sustainable.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things but still can’t seem to keep up, you’re not alone — and you’re not broken. I work with ADHDers, autistic adults, and other neurodivergent humans who are navigating overwhelm, burnout, emotional regulation, and self-acceptance. My style is down-to-earth, compassionate, and direct. I blend therapy, coaching, and practical strategies that help you turn insight into real change.
I’m also sex-positive, kink-aware, and LGBTQ+ affirming. Many of my clients are exploring identity, communication, or relationships in ways that don’t fit neatly into a box — and that’s exactly where we can do our best work. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your full self, without shame or judgment.
Outside of therapy, I host the ADHD reWired podcast and lead intensive coaching and accountability groups for adults with ADHD — communities that have helped hundreds of people connect, grow, and thrive.
Whether you’re seeking therapy for ADHD, autism, trauma, or simply wanting to feel more at ease in your own skin, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Let’s find a way to make life work with your brain, not against it.
