Therapists in Omaha, NE

As a therapist, I believe that it takes a tremendous amount of courage to reach out for support during difficult times and consider it a privilege to help people along their journey. For me, the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between client and therapist, and I work to cultivate a nurturing and supportive therapeutic environment. Everyone wants to feel heard and understood and providing that is the basis of our work together.

I work with individuals suffering from depression, anxiety and trauma. I also see families dealing with Life Transitions including new medical diagnosis, the move of a parent to Long-term care, children leaving home. My clients include military families, as well as married, divorcing or struggling couples. Our work together often includes recognizing grief as a natural process of change and growth. I also provide clinical supervision and consultation services for mental health providers.

Having practiced for a good while, my interests have been directed to working with people who struggle with ADHD and affective disorders (depressed mood and anxiety symptoms).

(Not accepting new individual clients at this time.) Seeking counseling when you are struggling is courageous. I understand that it can be scary to speak about the situations that make your life most difficult. My main priority is to help you feel safe and comfortable so that we can tackle those problems together. Whether you are starting the journey to parenthood, hitting obstacles to conceiving, dealing with loss, experiencing a difficult pregnancy, suffering from a traumatic birth or NICU stay, navigating though health issues or struggling with life’s continuing changes, I am here to help.

When your primary relationship is difficult, it impacts every aspect of your life. You can't focus as well at work, you become short and snappy with your children and/or others, you can't sleep, you stop eating or eat too much. It can feel so threatening when someone you care about doesn't seem to care about you, or when you wonder if you even care about them anymore. All of these feelings are normal in relationships but they don't have to last forever. If you allow them to push you to growth, you can have the relationship you've always craved.

Do you need to manage your stress more effectively? Is your condition exacerbated by stress? Do you wish to feel better? Perhaps feel calmer, increase your ability to pay attention or make better choices? I may be able to help.

Whether you're a Christian feeling disconnected from God, in a relationship where you're feeling disconnected from your partner, or an individual feeling disconnected from yourself, I would love to work with you to find meaningful connection in any area of life.

There are times in our lives that we can become stuck, not knowing how, where, or who to turn to. We may feel lost, alone, depressed, angry, traumatized, fragmented, hopeless, afraid - floundering & needing direction. Does this sound like your situation? I'll help you to untangle your emotional knots - so that you can rekindle your dreams toward living the life you truly deserve. I specialize in issues of empowerment with a focus on your humanity and relationships (less on diagnostic labels). Welcome!

When life becomes overwhelming, there is hope in taking action to learn to live beyond our painful experiences. As a licensed professional therapist, I can help you learn about yourself, your strengths, and ways that you can continue to grow into the person you want to be. I look forward to hearing your story and supporting you in creating a new beginning in understanding your authentic self. It is never too late to learn, accept, forgive, and grow...to Live Beyond.

I believe in connection and empowerment, and that everyone can change. Your life can be restored from substance use issues and mental health. Contact me and let us get started.

Do you feel like there is something that keeps getting in the way of being able to live a life of fulfillment and joy? Is emotional pain or worry about the future making it hard to enjoy today? Sometimes even the strongest people need some help to work through some of life's more challenging problems. Overwhelm, stress, constant change, weight gain-these things can seem to be an inevitable part of life but that doesn't have to be the case. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, panic, depression, self-esteem, I want you to know there IS hope for a better tomorrow.

Are you struggling with a major life change or transition, such as becoming a new parent, dealing with a major medical diagnosis, coping with the loss of a loved one, or ending a significant relationship? You might feel like you're in a constant state of worry, struggling to cope, and unsure of where to turn. Despite your best efforts to seek support and help, nothing seems to work. In the past you may have always been able to logically solve your problems but now it seems like you can't stop worrying or crying. Maybe this is the first time you’ve considered finding someone to talk to or maybe you’ve been considering it for a while.

It gives me such joy and gratitude to embark on this journey of change with you as we work together on 'turning your mind' to new possibilities. It is my greatest hope that the work we do will assist you in reaching your own goals and give you a sense of freedom to live your best life. You can learn to manage your emotions, your life and your addiction. My approach centered around a strong set of skills using DBT, Brainspotting & EMDR. I have a strong knowledge of 12 step recovery programs and use therapies that only enhance your recovery.

Is your preschooler running your household? Has your teenager been pushing you to the edge? There are many different theories on how to manage unwanted behaviors in children, and help your struggling teen. Some of these theories can leave parents with more questions than answers. You might ask yourself, "Does my child need more attention, or am I giving too much? Are my expectations of my teenager too high, or too low? If I ask for help, does that make me a good parent, or an incompetent one?" I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families, and I can help you find answers.
