Therapists in Omaha, NE

Is your child or teen getting on your last nerve? Are they defiant, angry, sad or withdrawn? Changes in the family structure, through a breakup, divorce, or death of a family member, often create confusion and unexpressed feelings in kids. Financial worries, relocating, peer pressure, violence, and other stressors at school and in the neighborhood, can lead to behavioral problems. Your child might have stopped opening up to you because they didn't want to worry you, or fear they'd be in trouble. I understand. I specialize in helping school-age children, teens, and their parents through challenging times.

Everyone encounters challenges in their life that may feel overwhelming. Seeking counseling during these times is a sign of strength, as it suggests the willingness to address problems rather than avoid them. I teach solution-focused tools that clients can use in the real world. I have a collaborative approach with my clients and believe humor and empowerment are key components to therapy. If stressful thoughts are keeping you up at night, it may be a sign that you're ready tackle the things that are holding you back. I would like to help.

Alma Orellana is a Bilingual Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (PLMHP) in Nebraska. She has over 10 years of experience working with children, families and individuals overcoming barriers that prevent them from being successful in life. Her specialty is trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, divorce, abuse, neglect, violence, and sexual abuse.

Sometimes childhood is interrupted by crisis—feelings and situations too big for children, teens and families to deal with on their own. Often children (especially teens) express their sadness, fear and anger through their behaviors and attitude. This "acting out" is especially challenging to caregivers. Child Saving Institute (CSI) offers comprehensive mental health services including pediatric, adolescent and family therapy alongside psychiatric evaluations and medication management services to children, teens and young adults.

I have more than 25 years of experience working with and advocating for children and families impacted by abuse and neglect, grief and loss, divorce, attachment difficulties, foster care and adoption, problematic sexual behaviors, sexual abuse, domestic violence and trauma. Children and caregivers express their reactions in a variety of ways. Their reactions may be expressed through their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical symptoms. I am focused on utilizing effective treatment practices to provide healing and hope to children and families impacted by a variety of mental health needs and challenges.

Life is about relationships, and it’s my responsibility as your counselor to both help you have the best relationships with other people and, perhaps even most importantly, with yourself. Utilizing counseling modalities like CBT, Transactional Analysis, Attachment Theory, and spiritually based healing modalities based off of scriptural wisdom (if desired), we will work together to create a lifestyle that will best leverage your life to create a foundation in healthy relationships, cultivating a ripple effect on each key area of your life (physically, mentally/emotionally, spiritually, and life purpose).

Unfortunately, everyone experiences painful events at times in their life. Helping people to rebuild their lives back to what it was before or building a whole new life is something I have enjoyed doing for over 20 years. I enjoy working with people by addressing a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, substance use and other addictions, various types of trauma, relationships, divorce, unresolved grief, co-dependency, and anger management to name a few. I accept most insurance plans including Medicaid. A reduced fee is available for clients without insurance on a limited basis. Telehealth services are also available.

As a therapist I enjoy working with a variety of groups. I do individual, family and couples therapy, but particularly enjoy working with teens and young women. I enjoy empowering youth while they transition through their developmental tasks and into adulthood. I enjoy working with individuals interested in overcoming obstacles and developing their true potential. I utilize a combination of psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral approaches to meet the needs of my clients. With unconditional support, we can examine ourselves and learn to move forward to meet our personal goals.

The ability to talk to someone and have a sense that they know just where you're coming from and to know just what you're trying to say even before you can fully say it is a quality that my patients often describe when they tell me why I am effective in my work with them. I believe the challenge is in putting these skills together to help people find a way to be more effective in their lives. That is what the challenge is. It is with humility that i join my patients in meeting that challenge.

I now only work online through Skype. I have worked with a variety of issues over my 30 years in my profession. I have been an Adjunct Instructor in the UN-O Graduate Counseling Department, Consultant to area psychiatric programs, Director of Outpatient programs, and a presenter to a wide range of businesses as well as my outpatient practice. I like the diversity of my practice in terms of diagnostic features rather than a particular specialty. My many years of practice have allowed me to work with such a wide range of circumstances and issues.

As a mental health therapist, my primary goal is to foster a safe and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and understood. I will collaboratively work with you to build a healing environment. I strive to create an environment and therapeutic relationship that emphasizes trust, genuineness, and mutual respect. This creates a safe space for you to express and explore thoughts, feelings, and past experiences.

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.

Life is a journey and at times can be lonely and I am a firm believer that having an outside perspective to offer support, guidance and unconditional acceptance can be of extreme value and importance.

Beginning therapy can be a vulnerable time for someone. Therapy provides a safe space to work on healing, increase feelings of hope and gain support. I provide therapy to children, teens and adults who are experiencing stress, life transitions/changes or who have experienced trauma. I have experience in working in the areas of grief and loss, anxiety, depression, divorce, abuse, neglect, domestic violence, sexual abuse and adoption. I also enjoy working with women on relationships, stress and fertility struggles.

I provide a comforting, safe, and confidential environment, and work with people who are currently experiencing issues that are causing them to feel unhappy. My goal is to recognize each person's individual needs for therapy so they may find clarity surrounding their feelings, thoughts and relationships. I believe that therapy provides a safe place to receive guidance, through a nurturing therapeutic relationship, where they can explore issues in their life, set goals for change and healing, learn more effective coping skills and work towards greater fulfillment and happiness in their daily lives.
