Optum Therapists in Omaha, NE

I want to create a safe and supportive atmosphere where people can discuss their lives freely without fear of judgement. While the specific goals of therapy are always decided by the client, my overarching goals with each person is that they will come to understand their worth as an individual, and will find freedom to fully engage with life. I believe in not only addressing issues that hold people back, but also in exploring their unique strengths and interests.

Over the past twenty years, I have specialized in working with a wide range of individuals struggling with everyday challenges: anxiety, depression and trauma, to name a few. While working from a cognitive-behavioral perspective, I find value in utilizing EMDR. EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a psychotherapy treatment that is effective for resolving emotional difficulties caused by disturbing, difficult and frightening life experiences. Utilizing this protocol, I have been able to provide a valuable and effective treatment method for those facing challenges in their day-to-day life.

I use a variety of individualized client-centered modalities to give you a real and noticeable sense of relief.

Unfortunately, everyone experiences painful events at times in their life. Helping people to rebuild their lives back to what it was before or building a whole new life is something I have enjoyed doing for over 20 years.

I accept most insurance plans including Medicaid. A reduced fee is available for clients without insurance on a limited basis. Telehealth services are also available.

Seeking a better state of mental health is a fundamentally hopeful endeavor. I firmly believe that every person has the internal capacity for change and I hope to help each person to turn that hope into progress.

Are you struggling with feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel like no one gets you? Do you have trouble making decisions for fear you will make a mistake?
