Therapists for Teens and Adolescents in Springfield, NE
You've been running on empty: anxious, exhaustd, depleted, and trying to hold it all together. You're the strong one - the helper, the emotional anchor, the high achiever - but your body is showing the cracks. Your hormones feel chaotic. You can't relax. The gut, sleep, and mood are all over the place, you've tried talk therapy before, but it didn't go deep enough, because your stress isn't only in your mind - it's in your body.

I strongly believe in building therapeutic relationships that cultivate an environment of trust and honesty. By utilizing Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral therapies in combination with a person-centered approach, I can challenge and support patients by developing effective coping strategies, mood regulation techniques and the ability to gain control of impulses. Working both independently and on specialized teams to train and implement strategies for supporting staff of developmentally disabled individuals, these techniques have become the cornerstone of my practice.

It has been a pleasure to work with teens, individuals, and families over 25 years.
Clients often come to me when struggling with anxiety, grief, and marital or life stressors. Stepping out and sharing your story can feel scary.

Individuals can benefit from therapy for many life situations. Together we will develop a plan to move forward whether the struggle is grief, anxiety, a traumatic event, depression, life transitions, marital counseling or another concern.

With 35 years of experience in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, I now use a transpersonal or more personalized therapy approach with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.

I'll help you to untangle your emotional knots - so that you can rekindle your dreams toward living the life you truly deserve.

When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.
I work with individuals, utilizing techniques from psychodynamic therapies. My theoretical orientation is psychoanalytic, but I also draw from other schools of thought when suitable. I also offer psychoanalysis proper, which requires frequent sessions and provides a much deeper understanding of how you relate to yourself and others.

Healing is neither linear nor neat, and many truths can co-exist: you can become someone new while still mourning who you were; engage in inner work and continue to be triggered; make mistakes and still practice self-forgiveness; and make progress yet still have difficult days. Healing is not about becoming more palatable, acceptable, or loveable; it is about growing in the ways you were always meant to. I provide a safe space that welcomes you to feel hurt, angry, sad, confused- whatever serves you- to feel seen.

"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them" -Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter. We all have weaknesses we can make into strengths. Life is about finding the things we can control and focusing on making changes in those areas. My goal is to guide my clients in the direction of what they have control of and help them make the positive changes in those areas.

I support children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, reproductive mental health, and neurodivergent experiences.
I know reaching out for therapy isn't always easy. My hope is that from the moment you walk in, you feel safe, supported, and understood. Life can feel heavy with emotions, responsibilities, and seasons of change. Therapy can be a steady space to slow down, breathe, and regain your footing. This is a place to feel at ease as you begin reconnecting with yourself and what you need most.

From managing major life transitions to smaller personal goals, life is always in a state of change. Having strong resources to help you remain grounded and regulated are at the foundation to addressing any of life's challenges. I believe that therapy can look different for each client, requiring trust and space to grow and implement helpful change. I enjoy working with clients from all walks of life, but have extensive experience working with neurodivergent individuals as well as LGBTQIA+ or gender diverse clients.

When your primary relationship is difficult, it impacts every aspect of your life. You can't focus as well at work, you become short and snappy with your children and/or others, you can't sleep, you stop eating or eat too much. It can feel so threatening when someone you care about doesn't seem to care about you, or when you wonder if you even care about them anymore. All of these feelings are normal in relationships but they don't have to last forever. If you allow them to push you to growth, you can have the relationship you've always craved.

What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
