Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in relationships, life direction, or their sense of self, even when things appear fine on the outside. You may find yourself questioning who you are, repeating familiar relationship patterns, struggling to trust yourself, or feeling disconnected from parts of yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
My life’s work is helping clients slow down and truly be with themselves long enough to understand who they are, what they need, and how they want to move forward. It's an honor to walk alongside professionals and parents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties, including attachment-related patterns. I also specialize in perinatal mental health: pregnancy-related and postpartum anxiety and depression, infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy after loss. I'm especially well-matched for high-achieving adults who sense there's something deeper going on and feel ready to dig in.

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.
