Nicholas is fantastic. I tried a few therapists before landing on him and he is exactly what I was hoping for. He cares and is attentive to the issues I bring up while also being specific enough to provide actionable items and solutions.
More about Nicholas
- 20 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW
I have over 20 years experience in counseling and have worked with a diverse range of people and problems. I have a laid back, empathetic approach and will listen - not judge. Let's develop strategies to get through today, but also to build a foundation to be better equipped to handle tomorrow. I'm experienced in working with depression, anxiety, bipolar, grief, addictions, aging & disability issues, LGBTQIA+ , work & relationship issues. My undergraduate degree is in sociology & psychology, and I have a master's in social work. I will listen and give support, and if you need some honest, constructive feedback about your issues, I'm ready. I want to help you create healthier boundaries and build the confidence to express yourself fully. As a social worker I am trained to look at the big picture: how we all affect each other, including our friends & family., our workplace & our community, & even the larger world. I understand the need for social justice and diversity. We need to work together to solve problems. But before we can fully do that, we need to work on ourselves.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Nick reaches out often is very easy to speak with and I respect his take on things as he sees it
Nick is awesome! He's there for me, truly cares for my concerns, and is very attentive. Thank you for the support thus far.
Nicholas Brush is one of the best therapists I have come across. I honestly could even say he is the best. I have felt nothing but relief during my duration of communicating with him. He has numerous methods to help you discern and organize all your thoughts and asks questions to encourage you to dive deeper. I walked into his sessions truthfully feeling hopeless in life and I will be leaving his sessions with newfound passion and confidence that I have never felt before. Nick really helped me out and I encourage everyone to find a therapist just like him! Thank you so much Nick for that you have helped me with.
He's a great therapist
Great therapist and finds ways to connect with me, and deliver strong positive solutions to my issues.
Nicholas has been a crucial key in keeping me healthy. I would highly recommend him to anyone struggling with Bipolar 2 disorder.
Very professional, caring and offers great food for thought with my issues.
This man has helped me immensely these past few months, I don't think I could have kept a level head without someone like him to talk to. Fantastic human being!
Nicholas Brush has done an amazing job figuring out my particular issues and helping me through it whilst being willing to learn more about these issues to help even more along the way. My situation is very specific compared to most and he has been able to help me work through a lot of my issues as much as a therapist can. I never once desired to change therapists and he's been a great help remaining in contact through messages continually when need be in addition to our weekly video sessions. His desire to understand more about my scenario was always relevant and honestly he has put in extra effort towards me in a short time frame knowing that my situation is in need of that. I highly recommend him.
Nicholas is an experienced counselor with decades of experience. Our sessions resulted in an increased optimism and work performance. I highly recommend his professional services. Thanks again

Nick is such a great listener and is completely open to discuss any issue. He responds quickly to any of my thoughts and concerns. He also provides a safe and caring environment for me to feel free. Thank you Nick!
