Attachment-based Therapists in Waverly, NE

We were made for relationships…like good relationships — with God, one another and ourselves. But that’s easier said than done, right? We get hurt. Or we do some of the hurting. We feel fractured, broken and bent. So what would it look like to reconnect and experience life the way we were meant to: whole, vulnerable, loved and well, connected? I want to help you get there. Let's find a way to reconnect.

Everyone deserves access to affordable mental health. The Couple and Family Clinic at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln understands the need for hope, compassion, and support when life’s problems seem overwhelming.

Have you experienced a significant life event or noticed you would like help improving your life? I specialize in treating trauma and significant life events. I am EMDR trained.

I also specialize in treating drug and alcohol addiction or concerns. If you would like to include anyone in your treatment, I can also provide assistance to couples.

*Accepting New Clients-Same day response*Life events can trigger negative reactions in our mind, body, and soul. A majority of these life events we have no control over. We are left wondering how to deal with the negativity that comes with them. Its normal to have a hard time figuring out how to deal with these reactions. My job is to help navigate. Human's desire attachment, or the ability to seek out help from another in times of distress or obstacles. Healthy attachment creates sustainable purpose, direction, and joy. My faith based background accompanies you on your journey to finding more peace, direction, purpose, and meaning.

Life is full of ups and downs. Whether you are struggling with your own concerns, worries about your child's development or both, I help to address difficulties that will allow you to improve relationships, decrease problematic behaviors and navigate obstacles successfully. I do this by focusing on my client's strengths and helping them to build and improve coping skills.

Sorting through hundreds of therapist profiles when you are already struggling sucks. "Let me just put my anxiety down while I scroll through the headshots of folks I am going to have to cold-call before we even get to talk about how I worry and overthink everything." "I know my depression makes it hard for me to get out of bed, but how about I narrow down a bunch of options and make a really big decision?" "I have a history of awful relationships, attachment injuries. PTSD, or C-PTSD-but by all means let me try to pick someone out that I am going to need to be really vulnerable with." I get that this process can be weird and hard.

What I can offer as a mental health provider is a safe space to explore thoughts, feelings, and actions within your past and current life. I provide trauma informed care, thus assuring proper techniques are used to create lasting change. I use a mixture of interventions and strategies to best fit your needs.

Every person wants happiness and contentment, but we also face challenges that leaves us confused, or even stuck. I realize it may not always be easy coming to a therapist, but personal growth, empowerment, and feeling whole are wonderful gifts to yourself. My hope is to foster trust by providing a safe environment to make sense of thoughts, feelings and pain. I love what I do and feel honored to gain your trust and hear about life, joys, and struggles.
