Therapists in Lincoln, NE

Accepting new clients with empathy! As an immigrant, I understand the challenges of adapting to a new country. In therapy, I specialize in trauma-informed care, guiding you through the healing process. For couples, my marriage and family therapy approach recognizes the nuanced dynamics of relationships. Whether overcoming trauma, fortifying bonds, or navigating immigration, I provide a safe, inclusive, and culturally sensitive space. Your beliefs, values, and opinions will not only be acknowledged but celebrated. Join me on a transformative journey where safety paves the way for empowerment and self-discovery.

Seen, heard, valued, and known- that is what I hope you feel in the therapy space. I believe that everyone has what they need to heal within themselves. I work to provide a space to process & understand the impact of your experiences & help connect you to the strength within to begin the journey of healing . The work of therapy includes addressing issues related to family of origin, trauma, abuse, identity, sexuality, physical, mental, and spiritual health, cultural/societal norms, and other systemic factors.

I believe that every person is an expert of their own life and possess inner strength necessary to deal with life situations. However, we may sometimes be overwhelmed by presented challenges or carry a load of childhood traumatic experiences that block the access to those resources and don’t allow us to find the best solutions. At Presence Psychotherapy, LLC, together with the client, we will explore different strategies and techniques, and examine important relationships within family and social systems, that will help them see new possibilities and become the author of their own life.

This quote encompasses my approach to trauma and change: “Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing is about creating the change that you DO choose.” In my work with clients I seek to navigate through change, healing, and trauma, find and seek deeper meaning and understandings of our own selves within our existence and displays of resilience. In creating what we CHOOSE, whether it be CHANGE through our thought processes, relationships, decisions, or behavior the goals can seek to embrace the differences, challenges, and the unexpected that life throws at us.

If you find yourself asking, "How did my family get to this point?!" you may have found your therapist. I get it...you've read the books, googled countless therapists, trying to find anything in an effort to restore sanity and connection to your chaotic family. Whether you dread the evening battles and meltdowns, fear how closed off your teen is becoming, or you don't know how to close the distance between you and your partner, hope for a better tomorrow is a conversation away. As a "wounded healer", I offer a no-nonsense, transparent, and direct but compassionate approach to bring a new perspective and hope.

Are you a stressed-out professional, overwhelmed with too many responsibilities? Sometimes you can't talk to a spouse or co-worker. There is no reason to keep it to yourself; that only makes things worse. How can you change things? Realistically, you can only change your thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and perspective. If you need help doing that, call today.

Sometimes we encounter a point in life that feels overwhelming, or sometimes things are manageable but a lot to bear, and there comes a time when you need a professional to guide you through it. That's where I come in! I believe that clients are the experts of their life, meaning they take me on their journey, and I am simply there as a guide to help navigate what can be a windy path. Therapy is vulnerable, therefore I strive to create a safe environment by being my authentic self, meeting clients with kindness and grace and bringing in light humor, and I hope that you will feel comfortable to authentically be yourself, too.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, families & children who are impacted by a variety of conditions and who are struggling with life issues. Life balance is the goal and that is done through my work, with anxiety, depression, relationships, loss, trauma and children with behavioral disorders. Many people struggle with a variety of emotional challenges. An inability to manage emotions and behaviors effectively can negatively impact relationships. I help people identify their strengths, understand, experience and express their emotions in appropriate ways.

At some point during our life I believe that we have all wanted to hear "it's ok", "me too", to be supported or reinforced through challenging times. I enjoy working with women who have been impacted with anxiety, broken love languages, executive functioning difficulties, cyclical issues surrounding their monthly cycle, maternal mental health, as well as, those who just need someone to talk to. I believe that in our society we have too many pressures of judgment and I strive to provide a free environment. An environment free from judgement, free from stress, and a place to find your best sense of self.

Life can be stressful and with changes always happening an individual may feel confused or sad. A parent may feel that they have no where else to go to help with their child's behaviors. If you are needing tools to help yourself heal, and grow I am the provider for you.
