Most of the time we can manage the ups and downs of life without extra support. Then something shifts, and it can feel like it all collapses like a house of cards. Quickly, it can feel like you don't even recognize yourself anymore. None of the skills you were using to successfully manage your life work like they used to. You're overwhelmed and at a loss for how to get unstuck. At times even the seemingly tiniest of changes can shake us to our foundations, and leave us feeling adrift; but change is often the perfect opportunity to grow.

Feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, or questioning yourself in a relationship that looks “fine” on the outside? You don’t have to navigate this alone. In West Omaha, we offer a professional, compassionate space for individuals and couples working through relational trauma, emotional manipulation, power imbalances, and long-standing patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we focus on rebuilding self-trust, strengthening boundaries, and creating healthier, more secure connections—so you can move from surviving your relationship to feeling grounded, confident, and aligned in it.

Is pain from the past inhibiting you from living the life you envisioned for yourself? Does it feel like you've been through so much that it's hard to even conceive of such an "envisioning?" Save that stuff for once you're out of survival mode, right? The fact is, trauma alone is not uncommon- it's part of being a human being. But for some of us, these traumas have been so severe that we can struggle to bounce back, feeling adrift and alone. Like journeying across the ocean when a storm cracks your mast, emotional trauma can leave us feeling lost, confused, and even desperate without a sail. How do we get back to dry land?

Your journey is important and the role you play in it, even more so. Perhaps you’re considering support for your relationship (romantic or platonic). Maybe you wish to explore your identity more deeply. Or maybe you aspire to embark on personal areas of growth because of challenges of past trauma, current anxieties, or other parts that need explored. No matter your path, how you show up along your journey is impactful. Through collaboration, we can work on exploring the possibilities before you, with the resources you innately possess.

I am dedicated to bringing peace to the world, one person, one couple, one family, one community and one organization at a time. My speciality is working with survivors of trauma, high conflict couples and families. We use the DBT skills as the foundation of our program adding the notion of 100% accountability. I am also trained in EMDR, Exposure therapy and CBT for trauma. Many of my clients have substance abuse issues and have yet to find true serenity despite working an AA program.

Whether you’re navigating something specific or need someone to listen, I’m here to meet you where you are. I have experiences in providing therapy services in Co-Occurring treatment settings, as well as working with veterans and community-based programs.
