Therapists in Belleair Bluffs, FL

Hello and Welcome to the BetterHelp community! My name is Nancy Busch and I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker. Let me tell you a little about me. In my 15+ years in the behavioral health field, I have had the pleasure of working in a variety of therapeutic settings including inpatient psychiatric hospitalization, community-based mental health, and military bases both within the US and abroad. I am proud to have worked with active duty and retired men and women of all branches of our armed forces and first responders. My approach to therapy is client-centered. Building a therapeutic relationship is key to successful therapy sessions. Our first sessions will be dedicated to developing a warm, safe, supportive and non-judgmental environment. I have worked with clients affected by a wide range of concerns; depression, anxiety, anger issues, relationship issues, trauma and life changes. My approach combines cognitive behavioral, solution focused, and trauma informed methods. I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe our work is a collaborative process incorporating dignity and respect. We will work together to achieve your desired goals. It takes courage to take the first step towards making a change. I am here to guide and support you through your journey to better well being. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. My background has been diverse on the journey to becoming a therapist. My first degree is in Christian Counseling and Bible. I was a cross-cultural therapist and Relational Minister in Bulgaria for about 5 years. During this time, I really dove into concepts such as "doing flows from being" and "life is a relationship process." When I returned to the US, I later used that education to segue into Case Management for adoptions and other family related issues. During that time, I saw a focus on strength-based services and Solution Focused Therapy. Over the years, I began to recognize that my ability to help as a case manager had limitations and I went back to school to get my MSW and ultimately my licensure as an LCSW. My experiences have led me to believe that in almost every instance, we become who we are because of our experiences. And in that vein, I have also become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I began to notice that many of my clients have experienced trauma, loss, and dissociation. Struggle for identity, dysphoria, and a need for self-worth are also common themes. I approach therapy from a stance of warmth and acceptance. If you are ready to work, let's get started!

I have worked as a mental health counselor for over 30 years. My locations of employment are Florida and Pennsylvania. I have worked in Residential Mental Health and Residential Substance Abuse. I was a school teacher for 16 years teaching students with learning differences, emotional issues, autism and developmentally delayed (adults, teens and children). While working as a a teacher I had a private practice in the evenings and weekends. I have knowledge in the area of Religious trauma syndrome and faith transitioning. In Pennsylvania. I worked in homes and day treatment facilities with children and adults. There were people of all ages during my private practice and working for agencies. There are different ways to address issues for each of us. What works for one may not work for another. Working as a team helps us all to deal with our issues to make our lives more peaceful and calm. There are many times we can make a few changes in our life to acquire these. Life is a journey. We have the opportunity to learn ways to cope with our lives. Change is a process on our journey. Many times we have control only of our actions and our response to these changes. Our critic can be our worst enemy and can be relentless in beating us up. Our critic was educated from childhood. My goal for my life for quite some time has been to disarm my critic and love myself. I am looking forward to working to build trust and make it safe environment for you to express your feelings without feeling judged.
