She's amazing- went out of her way to help us find someone since she was going on maternity leave. You don't find many people like Dr. Busch!
Dr. Busch is terrific to work with. She helped us tremendously when our daughter was experiencing significant anxiety. She really took the time to listen and understand and make recommendations catered to our unique situation. Even between sessions she was always available and checking in. And after just a few sessions and following her guidance, our daughter’s anxiety significantly improved. Highly recommend!
I’ve worked with Dr Chelsea Busch for the past months on my toddler’s separation anxiety and sleep issues. I can’t express how much her experience and advice has been helpful to our family. She listens patiently and provides guidance on different approaches according to our individual situation, and she is always available and checks in periodically to understand the progress and to make sure we are working on it. After a couple of consultations we saw amazing progress! We learned how to deal with the anxiety and our toddler has been back to sleeping independently through the night! We are proud of our child development and thankful for Dr Chelsea!
I know Dr. Busch personally and professionally and cannot recommend her enough! She is kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Overall, she is an absolute pleasure to work with and a great psychologist!
Dr. Busch is so patient and kind and beyond helpful.
