Spirituality Therapists in Lincoln, NE

When you've got that stuck feeling, when you're not sure how to make a change, when you need support - these are times I can help. I work from an interactive and empowering approach in therapy where we establish goals and work for change that matches your needs, your life, and your context. I can help uncover your natural resiliency and take steps towards a more fulfilling life. Many clients say they are surprised when they are able to break old patterns. Therapy should not be mysterious, nor does it need to last a long time. Click on my site for more info.

Welcome! Thank you for visiting! I provide caring Biblical Christian and secular counseling for the difficult problems of daily life. We can work together and travel down the road to recovery and true healing.

I believe, often life can feel “out of balance” and we are unsure of what to do. Sometimes we feel stuck, unable to reach a goal—or sometimes we struggle to even know what our goals are. This is where counseling can be helpful. I work with my clients to understand where they are at, and how they experience life. Together, we work to build a path toward change.

My clients tell me that they feel like they launched into adulthood without the necessary tools to navigate life and relationships. As one client put it, "I feel as if I entered adulthood without a clear direction for becoming myself, succeeding in my marriage, or successfully parenting my children. But you've given me my map." I specialize in helping people understand how their past impacts their present, and then help them evolve and journey into their future with more confidence and useful tools for living a fulfilling life.

*Immediate Openings* I work with adult and adolescent individuals, and families. I believe that within every person is everything they need to heal. Sessions are held to help you realize and use the strengths, supports, and skills you already have, and sometimes to help you learn new ones, in order to have a life worth living. I have experience working with others in the areas of trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, ODD ,ADHD, RAD, Bipolar Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder, among others.

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.

I have been in private practice since 1979: Therefore, I bring years of professional and life experience to my work. Dream analysis (from a Jungian perspective) is my special area of interest and expertise. I work with anxiety, depression, early childhood issues, trauma, grief, Traumatic Brain Injury, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Therapy teaches us to check out our interpretations and adjust appropriately to avoid creating our own misery. I am a recovering Co-dependent from a dysfunctional family of origin. I know more about grief and brain injury than I ever wanted to know!

Sanctuary Psychotherapy and Wellness, LLC was formed out of my passion to provide just what the definition of the word Sanctuary implies: a place of refuge and/or safety. I have worked in the addictions and behavioral health field since 2005. I am a dually licensed therapist; I am an Independently Licensed Mental Health Therapist and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I am an EMDR therapist and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy including mind, body, and spirit. I encourage clients to think of their mental health as just as important as physical health. It is all connected!

At some point during our life I believe that we have all wanted to hear "it's ok", "me too", to be supported or reinforced through challenging times. I enjoy working with patients involved in the judicial systems (criminal, juvenile, and divorce), children and adults affected by trauma, patients who have feelings of anxiety and depression, as well as, those who just need someone to talk to. I believe that in our society we have too many pressures of judgment and I strive to provide a free environment. An environment free from judgement, free from stress, and a place to find your best sense of self.

Everybody has bad days now and then when they feel down, anxious, angry or worse. But when bad days turn to bad weeks or months, talking to a professional might help. As a licensed psychologist I provide counseling for adults dealing with many issues including depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug use, relationship concerns, stress management, or coping with everyday life problems.

Relationships are vital to becoming a whole person, including your relationship with yourself. But quality relationships don't happen by accident. Real love is built the old fashioned way - through hard work. Whether you're struggling with how you view and treat yourself or struggling with others, therapy is a wise investment and can help you learn to manage the very best of who you are. This involves developing a skill set that will enable you to learn how powerful you really are in forming lasting connections with others and take an honest look at the barriers to those connections.

Whether it is depression, mood swings, anxiety, anger, or any combination of these regardless of the causes, if you are ready to feel better and ready to work at it, we can cooperate to meet your goals.

If you are reading this, you may be weathering a challenging season in life. It may be hard to recognize at this moment, but I truly believe that everything you need already lies within you. I am here to offer my clients a safe and supportive environment where they feel heard, supported, and empowered as we navigate this challenging season together. Although I often incorporate psychoeducation in the therapeutic process, I ultimately believe clients are the experts in their own lives and I tend to "lead from behind".

Hi, I'm Caitlin. I take great honor in helping others on their path of healing and wellness. I recognize the courage it takes to engage in therapy and love holding a welcoming space for others to feel seen, understood, and valued. My heart as a counselor is to meet you where you are and lead with compassion, providing a space that allows for transformation. Whether you need help with improving your relationships, healing from past trauma wounds, developing new coping skills, or growing in your relationship with yourself, I’d love to provide a safe space for your growth.

What parts of yourself do you hide? Often, we hide complex parts of ourselves out of fear. Sometimes those fears are grounded in messages we receive from meaningful others in our lives. Other times, our fears are based on very realistic cultural appraisals. Whatever the source(s), hiding yourself and your feelings can contribute to anxiety, loneliness, depression, avoidance, relationship difficulties, unresolved traumas, secretive behaviors, and unrealized potential. Within a strong, supportive, and affirming therapeutic relationship, you can fully experience the complexity of yourself without the judgment or rejection you fear.

At Origins, we are committed to supporting the whole person. We are dedicated to our mantra of "Health by choice, not by chance.". As a therapist, I believe that a person's emotional, physical and spiritual health are all equally important and one cannot exist without the others. For this reason, I work from a client's strengths to help them identify their goals and take deliberate, measurable and achievable steps toward finding the happiness and joy they desire in life. Emotional intelligence, communication effectiveness, relationship skills, mindful living and healthy parenting are some areas of focus.

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.

Allow yourself to experience changes through the seasons of life! As a counselor, it is my delight to come alongside clients and encourage them to transition through life's challenges. I believe that people can transform, weather the storms of life, and gain tools and insights to help them do so. I provide a safe environment, filled with compassion and empathy, in which clients can share their hearts, their fears, their dreams, and their stories.
