Hopeless to optimistic, a family's solution!
My son has dealt with paralyzing anxiety since elementary school. It prevented him from participating in sports & social events, many being his life dreams. He’s seen several therapists, with minimal results. After moving him to college & seeing the pain he was experiencing, I knew I needed to find him help. I prayed for God to provide a solution & he answered! At 3:00am on a Sunday, I searched for help & miraculously discovered Dr. Bush. The reviews seemed unbelievable. In a Hail Mary attempt to overcome my discouragement, I messaged immediately. By 8:00am I got a call, Dr. Bush reassured me he could & would help my son, his confidence gave me hope! Now, 5 sessions in with Dr. Bush, my son is confident & optimistic about conquering his anxiety. He’s attending functions & remains at school, not possible without Dr. Bush. Dr. Bush has treated my son directly but is healing our entire family! Thank you, Dr. Bush, for this life gift!

Wow
Before my visit I felt like not one person could help me with my anxiety. I tried multiple doctors and they never got the job done, i felt hopeless. My mother decided to give it one more shot after finding Dr. Bush, and it was 100% worth it. Dr. Bush helped me get over the mountain and I can't recommend him more. Amazing!

Therapy for anxiety issue
Dr. Bush was amazing! He helped fix the root of all my anxiety issues. I was able to overcome my intimacy issues in my marriage. My husband is now a very happy man. I can honestly say I am now living in freedom and completely cured of my anxiety. I truly believe the Lord led me to him.

EMDR/PTSD therapy
I came to Dr. Bush for treatment for ptsd symptoms, related to abuse in my childhood, and in my first marriage. The past abuse was affecting my new marriage in various ways. My new husband could. barely touch me because of how my body would respond. Dr. Bush was able to get to the root of the issues, he did EMDR therapy, and the nervousness and anxiety I felt every time my husband touched me, has completely went away. Getting to the root of the issues, has really given me my power back in my life, and I will be forever grateful. This only took 5 sessions total!! I will forever be grateful for Dr. Bush :)

Thank you Dr. Bush, Amazing
Dr. Bush is an amazing therapist and human being. I was severely depressed and had major anxiety. After a few sessions my anxiety and depression was completely gone. I was one of those patients that had no hope that he could help me. His therapy worked for me. I could not recommend him more.

So helpful. Grateful for Dr. Bush
Dr. Bush helped my husband and I out through challenges in our marriage. He also did one on one sessions to help overcome childhood traumas and current situations. He is very kind, caring, and easy to talk to. I highly recommend him to help overcome addiction, traumas, relationship issues, and pretty much anything you’re struggling in. Definitely worth going to see him.

The heavy weight will be lifted
Dr. Bush is unlike any other therapist. Most doctors will just bandaid the problem. The things that you replay in your mind that weigh you down can be gone. You can move on from them with Dr. Bush. My children suffered from a traumatic incident and now they can function because of his work. I am incredibly grateful to have found him.

Grateful to have found him! Talented & caring
Dr Bush is one of the BEST therapists I have ever been to in my life. I am blessed to have been able to find him and receive help from him. He is an extremely talented therapist who truly cares about your well being and has so much compassion wanting to help. Not only is he a great listener, he is also a spiritual person and has given me great strength in a time when I needed it the most. He has helped me to feel cared about and to feel trust. When I have a session with him, I feel that I can tell him anything that is bothering me and that I am receiving help from the best. He is very experienced in EMDR and hypnosis as well. If I could give 10 stars I would. Amazing human being.

Kind and Personalized Care
I first contacted Dr. Bush back in 2020, on recommendation from a friend, when I was looking for someone who could treat my son following a traumatic hospital experience he had been through. Our experience has been great. Dr. Bush is disarming and funny, great at breaking through and sharing practical tools and 'tricks' to help my son deal with his fears and concerns in real-time. My son still sees Dr. Bush periodically during the academic year as a trusted counselor who is still 'cool' enough to relate to him in his adolescent years. We always wonder together - what will Dr. Bush arrive in today? Harley? Convertible? Pick-up? I would highly recommend Dr. Bush for anyone seeking a caring and trustworthy therapist, no matter the age of the patient. His approach is timeless and healing.

Bye depression!
Dr. Scott Bush is a godsend to me. In a time when doors were closed and the world seemed so bleak, I needed someone who can listen to my mental/phobias concerns and help me through them. Dr. Bush was there for me. He took time to listen and analyze what I was going through. Few sessions were necessary to overcome the challenges that were haunting me from the past. I am touched by the efficiency, competence and time. Dr. Scott Bush is just plain awesome. I would recommend him to anyone.

Outstanding Doctor and Human Being
I was referred to Dr. Bush by my ex-wife due to my inabilty to fully open up and trust people. Dr. Bush solved my Trust issues AND he helped me to overcome some serious Inner Demons that I had been carrying around internally since childhood - all in just a handful of 1-hour sessions. Dr. Bush's therapies are unique, and extremely powerful - in a very therapeutic way...I RECOMMEND DR. BUSH WITH UTMOST CONFIDENCE - you will be FOREVER THANKFUL for deciding to treat yourself to his services!

Dr. Bush is a great therapist and friend.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Bush for about 4 months now and he’s helped me through so much already through so many different topics. My only regret was not seeing him sooner after my divorce.

Changed my life.
Dr Bush was recommended to my by my pastor. I knew for most of my life things just weren't right. After going through several EMDR sessions, being diagnosed as OCD and prescribed medication I have never felt better in my life. Dr Bush is very real and easy person to talk to. Thank you for giving me the life I have been missing out on.

Grateful for the help!
I was recommended to Dr Bush by some former clients/patients who he really helped, but was honestly, super skeptic. My issues felt too complex and deep and I didn’t even know where to begin. I had childhood trauma, and also some marital issues that were affecting me. Dr Bush did several EMDR sessions— the first one had me ?? I had shame that I had been carrying around from a sexual assault from my teen years. I didn’t even realize the impact! With compassion and tenderness he talked me through the most impactful part! I left feeling I could finally put that in the past! Over other sessions we dealt with some other moments of trauma — so healing for my soul. He’s easy to talk to, wise, and you can tell he genuinely believes in what he does and wants to help. So grateful and have already recommended him to others!

Met All Of My Goals
When I came to Dr. Bush I had been through a year of marriage counseling trying to figure out our issues. We had done a marriage intensive ($6K+!) and then seen a marriage coach for several months on end. They had differing opinions on what was going on and I was so frustrated and at my whits end. I felt like I didn’t know what way was up. Our marriage intensive counselor had suggested EMDR for mysel, so when I had a recommendation for Dr. Bush I decided to give it a try. I did hypnosis to heal from my childhood experience with OCD and I felt like I was able to lay that to rest, took a test to determine that I have ADHD which really allowed me to give myself grace, and did one session of EMDR. We worked on gratitude and forgiveness and it just really took root. It was the right thing at the right time. I also began taking a low dose of Prozac which helped as well. I’m just shocked to be able to say with six sessions I feel like we truly addressed everything! Thanks, Dr. Bush!

Great Experience
Dr. Bush helped me immensely with my anxiety and panic attacks after I had covid. Highly recommend you see him with any issues and/or anxiety you may be having. The experience was wonderful at the onset. I felt very comfortable. He is a great listener and truly cares about your mental health. I was able to also resolve a lot of prior issues I had in my life that I didn't realize was affecting me currently and/or hadn't let go of. I feel very lucky to have found Dr. Bush. He's very responsive with communication which is amazing. I'm 100 percent better and can't thank him enough. Even my husband said he can see a huge change in me. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Bush. You won't regret it.
