Therapists in Omaha, NE

I am a dedicated, empathetic, and culturally sensitive Provisional Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have over 15 years' experience in helping individuals and families with facing and changing difficult life's challenges; and I now help overcome substance abuse and behavioral addictions. I believe in a holistic approach to treatment, focusing not only on the addiction itself but also on the underlying causes and the overall well-being of my clients. My approach is rooted in evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), tailored to meet the unique needs of each client.

At some point in your life you may find yourself feeling unproductive, unsatisfied, stressed out, or even stuck in pattern's of self-destructive feelings and behaviors. Would you like to find yourself feeling more clear, hopeful, decisive and energetic? Would you like to learn mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance?

Do you feel stuck and overwhelmed? Do you feel like life has no meaning or purpose? Life can be difficult when walking through the valley of challenges. Be encouraged, there is hope! While there are many ways to overcome obstacles and live a fulfilled life, therapy is one way. As your therapist, my goal is to partner with you in a therapeutic alliance and tackle life's challenges as a team. My clients find me to be empathetic, empowering and an active listener. I also offer faith based therapy to individuals who choose to incorporate faith into the therapeutic process.

What does it mean to "take care of your mental health?" It's easier to tell when you aren't taking care of it: chronic stress, exhaustion, worry, and panic are all signs your mental health is suffering. If untreated, you could start having nightmares, poor health, trouble in your relationships, and difficulty staying on top of work or school. There are many things that can lead to mental health struggles, like a too-busy schedule, a chronic illness or someone else's troubles, a major life transition, or a death of someone close to you. Or, it could seem to come out of the blue, caused by nothing at all.

Welcome. So glad you stopped by :) Feeling challenged, depressive, anxious, or unsupported? If so, I'd feel privileged to walk alongside you in your journey of self-discovery & healing.
