Clinic Director & Founder
My name is Nicole Bell and my pronouns are she/her/hers. I am the Clinic Director and Founder of Synergos Counseling as well as a Licensed Psychotherapist. I received a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Counseling at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I also received my bachelors degree in Human Development and Family Studies with an emphasis in Child Development from UW-Madison.
I am frequently involved in the day to day operations at Synergos Counseling often responding to and scheduling initial sessions for clinicians, managing our online presence with social media, working with insurance companies to credential our staff, program development, community advocacy and philanthropy, professional development of staff, public speaking, and much more. I am passionate about community mental health and look forward to philanthropic advancements within our community and surrounding areas.
I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families for over 20 years. Additionally, I specialize in treating anxiety-related disorders (i.e., OCD, GAD, etc) as well as providing family therapy. I utilize an interpersonal approach to treatment using a variety of therapeutic techniques including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention, Person-Centered Approaches, and others. I am also a certified Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapist trained by world renowned clinician and researcher, Edna Foa, PhD. PE is especially helpful in treating Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
I have had the opportunity to work for some great organizations such as Meriter Hospital, UW-Madison Research Center, Institute for Juvenile Research in Chicago, Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in Chicago, Rogers Behavioral Health, and others. I am also a proud member of the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF).
