You can call me Dan. From a young age I was interested in a career that focused on helping people. I smile when I think about it, but there was a time I thought a career in medicine was what I wanted but I am so bad at math that didn't work out very well. There was a time I thought I was being called into ministry as a pastor, and I wanted to be a pastor that could counsel, but circumstances didn't allow that to happen either. Maybe it's ironic and maybe it's not but I'm not really that much of a talker so I never dreamed that becoming a therapist would be my thing. But then again, therapy is a lot about listening and I do that really well. I enjoy helping others move from places of frustration, and sometimes despair to places of hope and healing. I have always been taught that people deserve respect and to be treated with dignity regardless of what their issue is or where they come from and that is a value I continue to hold. I also find it interesting that the three careers I pursued had their focus in the three things I still believe are important for a life of fulfillment, purpose, and contentment and those are physical health, spiritual health and mental health. I received a Masters of Divinity degree in 1991, a Masters in Social Work degree in 1996 and my License as a Clinical Social Worker in 1997. I went back to school in 2016 and obtained a MBA in Healthcare Management in 2017. My 30 year career in mental health has been split between providing clinical services, supervising others in their provision of clinical services and administration in the area of Healthcare Quality and Compliance.

Congratulations on seeking therapy! Most people who seek therapy or counseling report that they experience an improvement in mood and anxiety. Timing is everything and I can generally see you within 48 hours. Unfortunately, many folks have to wait weeks to see a therapist. I believe I am easy to talk to and approachable. Therapists are excellent listeners and I will be honest with you, rather than just agreeing or dismissing your opinions. If you see me and we establish a plan, you will be able to determine how much you need and for how long. Since most of what I am doing involves Telehealth, I ask that you cancel ahead of time if you cannot meet per schedule. I will do this as well. As your therapist, I will: Respect your privacy Respect your schedule Respect your opinions and values Respect the severity and urgency of your difficulties Make myself available when you need assistance Help you find answers and solutions rather than feeling “stuck"

As a therapist, I am committed to helping my patients heal in the most efficient and effective way possible. I take a direct, trauma-focused approach that prioritizes getting to the root of distress rather than just managing symptoms. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where patients can process their experiences, build resilience, and move forward with clarity and strength. I believe in using evidence-based methods, like EMDR, to facilitate meaningful and lasting change.

As someone who has worked to decolonize and learn my role in the world, I feel I understand the complexities of individual identity. I aim to offer compassionate guidance on your journey of self-exploration and growth.🍉Many times the systems in place are problematic, not us or our way of thinking. I have 20 years (in 2024) of experience in the child and family services/advocacy field, finding my passion working with youth and families stuck in broken systems. Prior to earning my MSW, I worked with incarcerated youth and families involved in the child welfare system. I have experience with a variety of needs including trauma, ADHD, gender identity, women’s experiences, and grief with a holistic approach to meet each client’s complex needs.

Hey there. I'm Dennis aka Denny Bartsch. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the field for over 15 years. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and Strength Based techniques in my practice. I'm a goofy social worker who likes to use a non-confrontational approach to working with my clients. I do believe that you know your story/life better than I ever will so I believe in what you have to say. One thing that makes me pretty different from other service providers is that I saw a need for session times available for clients later in the day and evening so I decided to have my scheduled be from Monday through Friday's from 12:30pm EST to 9pm EST. I hope to accommodate more people this way. I like to use humor and positive support for my client's as we go on this journey together to helping you achieve the goals we identify in session together. My goal is to work towards you having the skills, support, and confidence you need to be successful. I like to think outside of the box when I work with my client's so you just wait and see! Therapy doesn't need to be scary. Let's work together and maybe laugh through some of it. We got this! Together!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is EMDR and FLASH trained. I bring warmth and compassion into each session. My goal is to provide a space that fosters self-reflection, vulnerability, and self-connection. It takes courage to seek help when your mental health is struggling, and you have already taken the first step. I look forward to walking alongside you as you begin on your path to healing and growth. I bring several passions into the field of counseling. I have enjoyed working with adults of all ages and have also worked alongside students, both in the roles of educator and coach at the grade school and intercollegiate levels. Whether in school, on the playing field, or in life, we bring our whole selves into the experience. Life requires much of us, and it is important to acknowledge and care for the wounded parts of ourselves that have endured various traumas, pain, grief, and loss. I have spent the last nearly 20 years of my life as a coach, educator, and counselor. I completed my undergraduate degree with a BS in English Education and completed my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. In my spare time, I enjoy running, hiking, cheering for the Chicago Bears, quality time with friends and family, reading, and listening to music.

Are you feeling stuck in your career, relationships, goals, or life in general? Are you ready to identify your road blocks and move forward? An ideal therapeutic relationship would consist of using evidence based practices to explore what you want in life, your road blocks, and setting realistic and obtainable goals to move forward. I also understand that the path you set at the beginning of therapy may change as you change and am always open to shifting gears and finding what works for you.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Indiana rather than a city like Indianapolis?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Indiana. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Indiana from Fort Wayne to Evansville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Indiana.

Will my therapist take Golden Rule?

Yes! If you use Golden Rule you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Golden Rule you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
