Dr. Jeffrey Van Meter, PsyD
Founder & Executive Director, Legacy Clinical Consultants
Dr. Jeffrey Van Meter is a licensed clinical psychologist who founded Legacy Clinical Consultants in 2001, seeing clients at both the Naperville and Plainfield offices.
Jeff’s path to this work wasn’t a straight line. He began his career in business consulting at Accenture after earning a degree in Industrial Engineering from Purdue University, before returning to graduate school to pursue psychology and its integration with theology at Wheaton College. That dual background still shapes how he practices today — he brings a genuine curiosity about both the inner life and the practical, structural side of how people and organizations function.
His passion is working with men — from college guys figuring out who they’re becoming, to men navigating career and family in midlife, to men approaching retirement and rethinking what comes next. He believes men are often given fewer permissions to name what they’re struggling with, and he sees his role as creating a space where that becomes possible. For clients who are interested, he also integrates theology and psychology into the work, drawing on the years he spent studying both.
Jeff is also the only clinician at Legacy trained in neurofeedback, and beyond individual therapy, he works with organizations on leadership and performance — a natural extension of the consulting instincts he started with at Accenture.
