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.

Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
I work with people to help them be the best version of their Self. Whether we are working on anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, spiritual issues, grief or trauma, etc, We usually begin with the initial phase of getting through the issue that got them through the door of my office. After that we work on the underlying issues that contributed to the struggles they are having. I focus on developing the skills of emotional management so that a person's emotions are coloring their life rather than running their life. We look at habitual patterns of interpreting their circumstances and familiar bodily states that are keeping them stuck. We concentrate on getting control of the things they can control and letting go of those they cannot control. We also address the habits of their internal critic and the ways they respond to those judgements with the goal of developing a peaceful life that is resilient to the difficulties that may come in the future.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am a Latina therapist who believes that people need to be seen and heard, not "fixed." We are all human and all of us need support. This is a safe space for you to be validated and welcomed. I serve adults of all ages in the state of Illinois via telehealth. If you find you like my therapeutic style, that's wonderful. We can have recurring sessions. You may come to sessions with lots to talk about and other times you may find it hard to just show up. That's okay. I can create as much or little structure as you would like. I'll shine a flashlight and support you through this. Learn more about what therapy with me looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hfAyQS3pVI

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
While a person can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe emotional distress, this relief is only temporary. Talking with a trained listener helps alleviate emotional distress for good. The clinicians in our practice are trained and ready to help you.

Dr. Jake Johnson
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My name is Jake Johnson and I am the founder of Bristlecone Therapy. I've been practicing marriage and family therapy (MFT) for over 17 years. I also work as a professor of MFT at Wheaton College, where I have taught for 13 years. In more recent years I've become a certified life coach, and I am currently the president-elect of the International Family Therapy Association.
On a personal note, I've been married for 15 years. I have four boys, ages 13 to 6. I love to travel, hike in the mountains and read fiction. I have done a whole bunch of my own therapy, spiritual direction, and personal and group retreats (as I deeply believe that if I am not healthy, then I certainly can't help my clients to be).

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.
