Folks of Blair, Omaha and surrounding communities, let’s come together to discover your courage to grow, adapt, and prosper! Therapy is a beautiful process that empowers us to deepen our self knowledge and make breakthroughs in whatever is holding us back; whether things have gotten too difficult or you’re in a longstanding battle of feeling unwell. Your experiences, relationships, mental health and physical health can all have an impact on how you show up in your life. These experiences can build up over time and erode our sense of peace and confidence. Our relationships become strained and we begin to feel more isolated.

My goal is to encourage, empower, and equip individuals of all ages to find their true self and to make the most of their lives. I have experience that spans infancy through geriatrics which has shaped my understanding that it is never too early nor too late to seek therapeutic self-care. As a wife and mother, I value the family dynamic and the need for facilitating opportunities to grow healthy family relationships. My focus in therapy surrounds trauma and attachment. I am also trained in EMDR. I am able to integrate a Christian approach for those desiring a faith-based therapy.

“It’s no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then.” “Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.” Alice, from Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. I like to ask my client's "What has happened to you" versus "What is wrong with you." "How can we get you to where you want to go?" I believe each client has their own story to tell. I am willing to join you on your path...

The road we travel is not without bumps along the way. These bumps can be the loss of a job, loss of independence, end of relationship or death of a loved one. This may cause many overwhelming feelings of denial, anger or sadness. These are all normal feelings when dealing with life, however if you find yourself having difficulty overcoming these feelings it might be helpful to seek help.

Since 2006, I've served as a therapist in Nebraska, helping teens, adults, and families.
Life can often feel like an overwhelming balancing act, and if you’re reading this, you might be reaching a breaking point with stress, anxiety, or a sense of being "stuck." Whether you are navigating a major life transition or dealing with long-standing emotional patterns, you deserve a space where you don’t to hold it all together. I work with individuals who are ready to trade 'just getting by' for actually feeling steady again. My goal is to help you find your footing, reconnect with what matters, and move from feeling overwhelmed by your circumstances to feeling like the author of your own story.

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and have used it to help people heal from trauma and reduce overall anxiety. I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Theory in my approach.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
