Bisexual Therapists in Lincoln, NE

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? 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.

Especially in difficult times, it can be hard to find sources of acceptance, affirmation, and healing. Often the people closest to us - family, classmates, and co-workers, don't accept us for who we are. Perhaps we are gifted and see the world differently, in a new relationship and scared of old mistakes, are living an alternative lifestyle, or are trying to better understand ourselves and our past. Whatever the reason, we also desire to be happy, whole, and loved - and especially to become something more than what we are. Trauma can hold us back - creating negative habits and barriers to our success.

I am a trauma focused therapist that is passionate about helping people identify triggers, barriers, or hang ups that are preventing them from living their most fulfilled and happiest life. I offer supportive insights and tools to assist clients in their life journey toward their identified goals. I enjoy utilizing creative techniques and tools in treatment such as narrative or art therapy.

Beginning the journey of therapy can be a difficult process but incredibly rewarding and life changing; it can assist you to discover parts of yourself that you may not have known existed. Further daunting can be the unknowns of what therapy can look like. I hope I may ease these unknowns by sharing what you can expect from working with me. My approach to counseling is very collaborative, where we first begin with gathering your narrative of what makes you “you,” next identifying the concerns that brought you to therapy, and creating a plan to address the concerns and assist you in growing towards the path and person you want to be.
