Anxiety
Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating anxiety disorders. My professional background spans hospital settings, private practice, and service as a medical officer in the U.S. Army, where I gained extensive experience addressing a wide range of mental health challenges. I have refined my skills in evidence-based treatments for anxiety, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), through advanced training in leading military treatment facilities and reknowned private practices.
These experiences have provided me with a deep understanding of the complexities of anxiety and a strong commitment to delivering personalized, effective care. My goal is to help you break free from the grip of anxiety, improve your emotional well-being, and create a more balanced and fulfilling life. Together, we’ll develop a therapeutic approach tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you feel supported and empowered every step of the way.

Meg Lukan
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LCPC
Does your mind ever continue running or in fight-or-flight mode? Anxiety can be exhausting and confusing. I help clients break down the patterns of their overthinking, panic, or fears so they can navigate life with confidence, understanding, and clarity. I provide nervous-system-regulating tools that challenge anxious thoughts and build a more controlled lifestyle.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
The worry doesn't turn off. You run through scenarios, anticipate problems, prepare for disasters that never arrive. Your body stays tense even when there's no immediate threat. People tell you to relax, as if you hadn't thought of that, as if you wouldn't if you could. We work with anxiety not by trying to make it disappear but by helping you understand what's driving it and changing your relationship to it. You can learn to feel the discomfort without being controlled by it. Our clinicians use evidence-based approaches that actually work, not just reassurance that wears off by the time you get to your car. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.
