Trauma Focused Therapists in La Vista, NE
I help individuals and couples by integrating evidence-based interventions that emphasize the importance of early relational experiences, bodily awareness and the neurobiological impact of trauma and emotional connection. I am passionate about mind-body approaches to help clients understand and heal relational patterns rooted in early life experiences. I incorporate somatic interventions to support in recognizing and processing trauma held within the body, facilitating greater regulation of the nervous system and fostering resilience.

In the famous words of Eric Matthews, (BMW) “Hey bro, life’s tough, get a helmet!” If only it were that easy, right!? This statement from my old sitcom obsession hit deep the first time I heard it, but has really engraved itself deeper the older, more experienced with life I have gotten. I’ve learned very quickly and/or the hard way that walking around with a helmet on wouldn’t make much of a difference at all and would probably just add to the stressors and hardships of life. Today’s world is different. Today’s world is hard. Today’s world can be scary. But most importantly, you don’t have to go through today’s world alone.

I use a Christian based approach that incorporates trauma focused modalities such as T-MRT, TF-CBT and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and I also, most recently, have been trained in multidimensional grief therapy to assess and assist in resolving difficult grieving.
My therapeutic specialties include trauma, grief, neurodiversity and family of origin issues, which if not resolved will result in life long struggles. I know from personal experience that you can't change your history, but you can overcome it by your choices. You want freedom from stress, anxiety, and other trauma issues so you can experience lasting peace and satisfaction in living your life to the fullest.

Do you often find yourself going back and forth about making a change in your head? Is part of you wanting to make that change and part of you not feeling sure or quite ready yet? This is all part of the change process, and you are probably further along than you realize! Sometimes a new perspective and new tools can help us "get off the seesaw" and get closer to the life we want to have. I often see clients who are dealing with trauma, substance use, anxiety, or depression. I work to build a space of non-judgment and acceptance so my clients can be seen exactly as they are without fear, so we can find the path forward together.

I love children, and especially appreciate the opportunity to work with young children and their parents. I believe that when a child is struggling with some type of emotional or behavioral issue, it is important for them to have a safe place to discuss their concerns and feel that they have someone "on their side." My office is filled with toys and art projects to help any child feel safe and comfortable.

Do you ever feel like breaking down? Do you ever feel out of place? Like somehow you just don’t belong, and no one understands you? Thanks for the great intro pop punk band Simple Plan. But seriously, have you ever felt any of these things? I know I have. It is hard to have all these sucky feelings and have no one to turn to for support. Unfortunately, many people out there will say “Depressed? Isn’t that just a fancy word for feeling bummed out?”, which I am sure makes you want to scream. That is where I come in!
-Only accepting clients ages 19 and up-
