Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists in Omaha, NE

Accepting New Clients Now...........Are you on a journey to discover your identity through self-exploration? Are you having a hard time adjusting to a new season of your life? Do you feel sad, anxious, or angry and have difficulty identifying why? Are you having difficulty navigating your relationships (e.g., friendships, intimate partnerships, or familial relationships)? You want to live a life where you are operating at your fullest potential. You want to remain who you genuinely are, even when faced with adversity. You want to work on identifying stressors and regulating your emotions.

Welcome! I'm so glad you landed on my page. I am a strengths-based, client-centered therapist who sees people of all ages working through anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief/loss, identity questions, and trauma. The first thing I'll do when we meet is simply listen. I want to hear your story, in the way that you tell it. Together, we'll explore the parts of your story that are working for you, and the parts you want to shift; the parts of your story that are in your control, and those that are not. I will act as guide and witness to the internal work you need to do to move towards the life you want and deserve.

Many of us, from time to time, need help navigating life's incredible challenges. Fear, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and many other obstacles can keep individuals tied to old thinking patterns and cycles with ineffective coping strategies. As a Christian, I believe God made us with a need for good relationships with Him, with our family, with others, and with ourselves. My approach to therapy is based on a collaborative therapeutic relationship designed to help people identify goals and overcome challenges at their own pace.

Accepting Teletherapy Appointments Only. I work collaboratively with my clients, empowering them to find balance, wholeness, and greater happiness in life. My broad experience both in a variety of psychological treatment modalities (Internal Family Systems , Dialectical Behavioural Therapy and Emotion Couples Therapy), as well as in working with a wide range of clients, enables me to provide therapy that is both deeply compassionate and well-rooted in psychological science. I’m here to help you create stronger, more fulfilling relationships, make peace with yourself, and start living a life of fulfillment and connection.

We are a multiethnic and multiracial group practice that centralizes care for BIPoC and LGBTQIA+ communities. Clients who come to us are working though life challenges related to their identities. They are often in a process of self-exploration, working to make sense of their place and identity in the world where they are made to feel like "the other" and have been marginalized, traumatized, and blatantly microaggressed. We recognize the importance of finding providers who get it, from a shared and lived experience. Here, our aim is connect communities of color and queer communities with providers of color and queer providers.

Finding the right therapist is perhaps the most important part of the therapy process. You want someone you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. You want to know that your therapist has your best interests in mind always, and sees things objectively. You want someone who has advanced training, experience, skill and offers sound encouragement. You want someone who would practice what is recommended and feels called to walk along side you during some of life's most difficult moments. If this is where you are beginning, consider starting here.

Struggling to find balance in your life? Find yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, or anxious. Too often our compounding responsibilities leave us feeling that we are inadequate, or do not have mental or physical fortitude to thrive. You are able to break free from your current cycle and develop new habits that allow you to be the best version of yourself possible..

I often find myself telling people, "Life happens, but what matters most is what you do about it". We all have experienced, at one time or another, a situation that has us needing to take a breath. Anxiety, depression, trauma and loss/grief are just a few things that I can help you work through by providing a safe space for self reflection and discovery. This is your life and I am simply here to help you and your family discover what works for you!

Hope you are living your best. If not, please contact me if I can help. Have been doing counseling for many years, and appreciate those who come and tell me their stories. My work is primarily with couples, anxiety, and spiritually-based counseling. Please contact me any time.
