Therapists in Columbus, NE

I honor an individual’s whole experience by using therapeutic approaches that acknowledge the impact that environment and biology have on mental health, educating clients in strategies to grow with change. I have experience with clients of various backgrounds and areas of need, with a particular focus on trauma and attachment.

At Origins, we are committed to supporting the whole person. We are dedicated to our mantra of "Health by choice, not by chance.". As a therapist, I believe that a person's emotional, physical and spiritual health are all equally important and one cannot exist without the others. For this reason, I work from a client's strengths to help them identify their goals and take deliberate, measurable and achievable steps toward finding the happiness and joy they desire in life. Emotional intelligence, communication effectiveness, relationship skills, mindful living and healthy parenting are some areas of focus.

Every person is unique and capable of realizing their potential in an optimal environment. However, life is filled with so many challenges and it is not unusual to feel discouraged or unable to meet those challenges. Building a relationship based on acceptance and trust with my clients is my priority. I listen carefully and help them develop an understanding of what has led them to unsatisfying thoughts, feelings and behaviors. We explore and identify how significant past experiences have shaped their present life.When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.

My ideal client is open to the exploration of oneself through the ritual of self-reflective storytelling. I listen and help link childhood memories to insights through psychotherapeutic interpretation. My ability to draw from personal loss and experience helps me guide others through the sometimes painful exploration of the self. I work with individuals, often supplementing with group therapy, to help them recognize and understand the obstacles in their way.
