Because every kind of emotional suffering deserves relief... 1) I treat trauma survivors with PTSD and depression; 2) I help couples or individuals who are struggling in partner relationships; and 3) I advise adults who are frustrated in their parenting adventures. Also, if you are surviving dissociative symptoms, are recovering from secret habits, are suffering with anxiety or bipolar disorder, hear voices, have a history of several psychiatric diagnoses, or haven't responded well to psychotropic medications, come talk to me. (**If you prefer a female clinician, I can connect you with a trusted, experienced female therapist.**)

My goal is to assist you in overcoming life's obstacles and challenges so that you can lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. I believe in drawing from a wide range of approaches and theories, focusing on what is best suited to you and your individual needs. A trusting relationship must be the foundation of any therapeutic process, and this is the kind of environment we will create together. Through a collaborative, interactive therapeutic relationship we will strive to help you achieve greater self-understanding and self-awareness so you can grow as a person and make life changes that will have a lasting and positive impact.

I have tremendous amount of patience, compassion, empathy, and respect for individuals. My clinical work as a therapist for the past 16 years has given me the opportunity in working with young children, adolescents, adults, and geriatrics. If you are struggling with daily life struggles, women's issues, postpartum, anxiety , depression, grief, adjustment to change issues, relationship Issues, and/or other mental health conditions please reach out.

I understand that mental health needs come from a wide variety of life experiences. I aim to offer a safe space where individuals can explore issues in their life through an Existential lens to help them find clarification and awareness. I work with clients to identify behaviors that they have learned as a way to adapt to their life experiences and how those behaviors impact the type of life that they desire. I aim to help clients rebuild a sense of hope within themselves that a different experience of life is possible.

I work primarily with adults with a wide range of presenting problems such as depression, anxiety , trauma, OCD, bipolar, etc. My early training and early career jobs were in agencies serving primarily children and adolescents. I have shifted to working primarily with adults, but continue to keep my hand in a bit of therapy with adolescents. My background in child/adolescent therapy has been useful in working with adults struggling with their children, teens, and adult children. I also enjoy working with couples struggling with the trials and complexities of being in a marriage.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, families & children who are impacted by a variety of conditions and who are struggling with life issues. Life balance is the goal and that is done through my work, with anxiety , depression, relationships, loss, trauma and children with behavioral disorders. Many people struggle with a variety of emotional challenges. An inability to manage emotions and behaviors effectively can negatively impact relationships. I help people identify their strengths, understand, experience and express their emotions in appropriate ways.

TELETHERAPY AVAILABLE! I believe in helping people build a life worth living, not just surviving. We often struggle most when we are lacking balance in our lives - and I believe that applies to all things, particularly in the way we view ourselves and the world around us. I have experience working with a variety of concerns including: anxiety , depression, interpersonal difficulties, identity concerns, trauma, borderline personality disorder, substance use problems, and life transitions - all with a focus on building healthy coping skills to regulate emotions, tolerate distress, and improve mindfulness.

Seeking therapy can be the first step to achieving a healthier and more enjoyable life. I’m so glad you’re considering me as a therapist to aid you in your journey. Therapy can offer insight into who you are, where you’ve come from, who you’d like to be, & where you’d like to go. As a therapist, I believe that each person deserves to feel in control of their lives. When a person feels in control, they can begin to see positive possibilities that they didn’t consider before.

I provide a compassionate environment helping clients to gain insight, define goals, and develop skills for a healthier, happier way of life. My professional training and experiences cover a wide variety of needs across all age groups, e.g. trauma, depression, anxiety , relationships and marriage issues, stress, self-image, grief and loss, and life transitions. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of your journey!

My work as a therapist is focused on helping my clients develop insight into the problems they are facing with their families and with their own lives, so that they can experience the hope and the possibility of change.

Counseling provides a safe place to resolve many of the symptoms of emotional and physical stress related to addiction, depression, anxiety or trauma. Through relationship counseling, people learn how to reconnect after conflict and discover the power of truly listening to others in conversation. Helping people learn how to respond rather than react in close and intimate relationships, resolving conflict through healthy communication.

I have been working with adolescents, adults and families since the mid 1980's. Substance abuse, depression, anxiety , LGBT and family issues are the areas that I have the most experience in. I believe folks come to therapy because some aspects of their lives are not working...we will explore these issues and move to get you where you want and need to be. I have many years of various types of training, but the most important is to get people back to being comfortable, happy and productive in their own world. Compassion and humor are extremely important values to find in each of our lives!!

Being willing is a major factor to learning and growing through therapy. I provide a safe space for people to explore emotional, mental, sexual, physical, and/or spiritual concerns. Do you feel disconnected from yourself & others? Are you struggling with your identity & accepting yourself? Are you feeling anxious or fearful (who isn't during a global pandemic, really?)? Do you not want to feel that way anymore but are unsure as to how? You possess the answers. Therapy provides an opportunity to be seen, heard, and validated while you find your answers. I will help facilitate and provide guidance through this client-led process.

Making a choice to come to therapy is difficult and courageous. I have experience working with people who are struggling with emotional challenges. These challenges include trauma, anxiety , depression and grief. I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Provider in the state of Nebraska. I have over twenty-five years of experience as a therapist and have extensive training in the treatment of dissociation, complex trauma and personality disorders.
