You don’t have to keep carrying the weight of everything on your own. I work with children, teens, adults, and families who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, parenting stress, relationship struggles, grief, or major life changes. After 22 years serving a rural Nebraska community in schools, hospitals, and private practice, I understand how hard it can be to ask for help, especially when you’re used to being the one others rely on. Clients often describe me as compassionate, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to, and I’m honored to walk alongside them through difficult seasons.
I believe healing starts with feeling understood. I’ll meet you where you are and help you make sense of the thoughts, emotions, and challenges that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll work through life’s struggles at a pace that feels comfortable for you while building healthier ways to cope, communicate, and move forward with confidence.
Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, and encouraging. My goal is for you to leave sessions feeling supported, hopeful, and less alone in what you’re carrying. Over time, many clients begin to feel more confident, connected, and able to handle life’s challenges with greater clarity and self-trust while creating meaningful, lasting change.
