Getting to know Nicole Busch

I'm excited to connect with you! I'm passionate about the connection between physical and mental health, and I bring empathy, warmth, and unconditional positive regard to every session. I see therapy as a collaborative journey, working closely with each client to understand their unique and powerful stories and perspectives. My approach is tailored to individual needs, focusing on building coping skills, increasing self-awareness, and improving relationships. I hold a Master's in Social Work and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, which have equipped me with a strong foundation to support my clients effectively.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Together, we’ll work to identify patterns that no longer serve you and create practical steps toward growth, healing, and self-acceptance.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I understand that reaching out for help can be daunting. You may feel hesitant, unsure if therapy is the right fit or if anyone will truly understand what you're going through. My goal is to offer a space where you feel heard and supported, where we work together at your pace. I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

The provider did not contact me. I had to call the office. They then informed me that my insurance is not accepted. They should have contacted me to let me know this ahead of time because it wasted both our times.
