Therapists in Omaha, NE

“The truest story – the one that will always be truest – is that I am a human being, being human. Sometimes, I am my best self. Sometimes, not so much. But goshdarn, I am trying to do better. I am always trying to do better. My guess is that you are, too.” – Laura McKowen. Life is a mixed bag of wonderful and weird. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between client and clinician that consists of making sense of past experiences and being able to “re-story” our lives. You are the expert in your own life, and I am honored to be on this journey with you.

The Cord’s founders, Cathy and Stefanie also founded the Attachment and Trauma Center Institute and created the Integrative Attachment Trauma Protocol (IATP-C). This protocol, along with other modalities that focus on neurobiology, trauma, and attachment theory inform our treatment. The Cord's therapists, who are also independent contractors, focus on attachment, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma and adoption issues. We help adults, families, and children/adolescents. When working with families, our collaboration with parents is an essential part of whole family healing.

People grow when they are meaningfully connected to people they can trust. I desire to offer a place of rest where we can work together to gain clarity and insight, allowing you to move forward and achieve your goals. As a counselor, I have received training in attachment trauma and EMDR and desire to work with children, teens, and adults. I want my approach to counseling to be grounded in my Christian faith and therapeutic focus that is rooted in compassion and client-centeredness. I desire to help my clients move towards the best version of themselves, recognizing faulty belief systems and securing life-giving truths.
