Family Therapy in Omaha, NE

Having the courage to seek therapy is never easy. One may feel hopeless, vulnerable, frustrated and unable to cope without outside help. While working in an inpatient psychiatric facility, it has allowed me to work extensively with anxiety, depression, bipolar, mood disorders, personality disorders, substance abuse, domestic violence, etc. I work with my clients to identify areas of their life that are causing suffering, collaboratively identifying effective ways to manage and reduce emotional pain. I utilize both warmth and validation with evidence-based behavioral change strategies.

Many people are experiencing the devastation of iporn-online pornography, chat rooms, escort and massage services- and other compulsive sexual behaviors. These compulsive behaviors can cause impotence, relationship crisis, depression and anxiety, job loss and legal problems. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist and Marriage and Family Therapist, I can help you overcome sex addiction and get your life back on track. See my book, The Storm of Sex Addiction available at www.amazon.com for more information about iPorn and sex addiction and details about my outpatient treatment program- STARPRO and other relationships services.

Every person deserves Dignity and Respect. We all sometimes need help. A different perspective and a reason for Hope can be important goals of counseling. We all approach life doing "The Best We Can". Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors all influence how we are doing. I have been in practice for 20+ years and works with individuals and families. I have experience working with the children/ teens, juvenile court system/probation, youth who sexually harm, Marital/family conflict, and behavioral/parenting issues. I am also a member of the Nebraska Academy of Collaborative Professionals and am trained in mediation.

You can learn to manage your emotions, your relationships, increase stability, find solutions to life problems, and gain a sense of purpose/meaning. I am experienced with multiple approaches such as; CBT, EMDR, ACT, Person-centered, and recovery-oriented modalities.

I often find myself telling people, "Life happens, but what matters most is what you do about it". We all have experienced, at one time or another, a situation that has us needing to take a breath. Anxiety, depression, trauma and loss/grief are just a few things that I can help you work through by providing a safe space for self reflection and discovery. This is your life and I am simply here to help you and your family discover what works for you!

All humans have strengths and develop strategies for coping with life's unique challenges and stressors. Sometimes the strategies we come up with are helpful and sometimes they do more to interfere with life than help. If you believe you or your child are experiencing difficulties coping with or adjusting to life's stressors that are interfering with school or work, peer and family relationships, or overall quality of life, then therapy may be a helpful next step.

As a therapist I enjoy working with Teens, Young Adults, LGBTQI+, and Military individuals. Issues that I can address include depression, trauma, addiction, PTSD, self-harm, family conflict, peer relationships, and any life event you are struggling through.

I am a mental health and substance use therapist committed to helping you learn how to navigate your life with a holistic approach. My work focuses on identifying and changing unwanted thoughts and behaviors. I believe in a collaborative approach in helping you reach your goals!

I have worked as a therapist since 2007, helping individuals with addictions and mental health concerns. I have specialized training in EMDR, Multidimensional Family Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Substance Use Disorders, Domestic Violence and Trauma. I have worked with individuals at an inpatient level all the way to outpatient/after care level. I have a good understanding on how conflict in the family system can affect the whole environment and work with individuals to have balance and conflict resolution. I work with the client to have individual success and identify those successes so they can be sustainable long term.

I provide online therapy individuals and families looking to overcome personal challenges, such as marital issues, grief, depression, anxiety, anger, sex therapy, relationship issues, a major life transition or spirituality issues. I've spent nearly 2 decades in ministry-helping kids, teens, adults, parents, groups, and families navigate their unique situations. I have over 8 years of military service, traveled the world and embrace all peoples, cultures, and beliefs. I use a holistic, nonjudgment, and multicultural approach to counseling. I am here to journey with you and to help you achieve your counseling goals if you let me.

I believe in a rapport-based approach to therapy: mainly authenticity in communication and interpersonal development of relationships. I aim to remove stigmas and depathologize issues, focusing on outcomes over symptoms. My philosophy is that people are often unaware of their core values, or stressors have made them seem far too distant. When building acceptance around the reality of problems facing families, and focusing on objectives that improve wellness, change can occur. The behavioral interventions, objectivity, and support found in the therapeutic relationship help lead individuals and families to their goals.

I believe you already bring a lot to the table, and I would be honored to walk through the process of getting you to where you want to be. My goal is to empower you to blossom into the most self-assured, peaceful version of yourself. My clients love that I am down to earth, a good listener, and easy to talk to. I pride myself in creating a safe space where there is no such thing as judgment. I provide services to adults through all life stages.

I am a licensed, independent mental health practitioner specializing in child and adolescent therapy. I am also a licensed alcohol and drug counselor trained to complete juvenile drug and alcohol evaluations. I have worked with at-risk youth for over a decade and have a great deal of knowledge in navigating the juvenile justice system.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages and genders. Most of my early experience is with children, adolescents, and families. However, I have been working with adults on individual and couples issues for many years. I also have a lot of experience working with clients on addictions especially drugs and alcohol issues. I work will with clients that have anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues. This includes ADHD and oppositional behaviors.

Life can be difficult to navigate. Working a demanding job, managing a household, engaging in a relationship, caring for children, maintaining a social life, addressing health concerns, and so many other daily pressures can overwhelm anyone. My goal is to help you, your relationships, and your family to grow and thrive. By building upon your individual strengths, we can work together to find solutions that work for you to overcome the challenges you are facing.

Do the challenges and stressors of life feel overwhelming? Are your relationships or family dynamics out of balance? Are you or someone in your life struggling with managing emotions & stress, having difficulty in work or school, or suddenly having problems with friends or other family members? When life seems overwhelming and out of control, I CAN offer help. I specialize in helping children, teens, adults and families improve relationships, deal with stress and difficult situations, and manage feelings of anger, frustration, sadness, and anxiety. I provide clients with the opportunity to experience the change they are searching for.
