Therapists in Waverly, NE

I work with adults and adolescents seeking to improve their relationships and emotional well-being. I partner with my clients to achieve their goals; improving their feelings about themselves and others; and fostering a sense of well-being using effective, evidence-based methods. I work well with individuals, families, and couples seeking relief from depression, grief, anxiety, traumatic events and abuse, developmental and intellectual disabilities, and borderline personality disorder. I have extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy. I also utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in my approach and have completed Level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

Although we may share similar circumstances with others, our very own take on things is what makes us unique. I support my clients to work through their very particular and subjective experiences of sadness, anger, fear or sense of failure, to explore purpose and identity, and to gain the strength and clarity to move forward.

Individuals and families are welcome to my practice. My practice name reflects my philosophy to assist in finding healthy solutions to life's problems that will promote quality living.

I work with individuals/couples on relationship and sexual issues. Sexual and emotional satisfaction is nearly inseparable for both men and women! The defensiveness that damages relationships is often the same behavior that controls vulnerability and intimacy in the bedroom. Simple awareness of learned beliefs or unhelpful fears can create the space a healthy couple needs to heal. Sex and emotional connection shouldn't wait on the backburner until life gives us a break - emotional and sexual expression should mirror life! If that sounds challenging, remember, I don't suggest anyone to do anything they do not want to do!

What do you do when you are confused? Hurting? Angry? At these times, talking to someone with training and experience can help. I strive to provide a supportive setting where problems can be thoughtfully examined and helpful solutions found. I enjoy working with people. I enjoy working with people who are skeptical because it is so exciting to help someone find answers when there appeared to be none. We will set goals and timelines together, and I will use my training and experience to help you find the answers that work for you. Therapy can work!! If you are thinking you need to talk with someone, please give me a call.

I'm experienced in working through issues related to aging and life changes. I've helped many clients work through times of grief and isolation. I've worked in medical and hospital settings and I understand the interplay between physical and emotional problems. I'd welcome the opportunity to work with you.

"After a medical diagnosis can be a terrifying time for you and your family, it can feel as if life is lost or has been stolen. Therapy allows individuals and their families make the transition from a medical diagnosis to living life again." I Am CURRENTLY OFFERING TELEHEALTH. PLEASE CALL 402-420-2650

Have you been feeling anxious, frustrated and overwhelmed? Clients working with me will benefit from a calm and caring space, as well as an open minded approach to their concerns. My hope is clients will leave their therapy sessions feeling like they have strategies to help them deal with day to day life, techniques to improve their mental health, and feeling empowered to move forward in their life.

My passion for working with others to find solace in their life has spanned a period of 21 years; both as a therapist & a school administrator. No matter who we are, there are obstacles & roadblocks that we need help overcoming. Sometimes, we need someone with whom we can bare our soul; sometimes we need reassurance that our thoughts are reasonable; sometimes we just need someone to listen. Life does not always turn out how we imagined. I have the background, skills, and experience tohelp others get as close to that imagined life as possible.

Flexible day and evening appointments with online scheduling available just click on the website link to the left! I enjoy working with people of all ages; from a former client, "I never had the fear of being judged. I could just talk and Miranda would listen. She always had the logical thing to say and knew what I needed to hear at that moment even the hard things! It never felt like therapy to me and I think that was why I felt so comfortable. It was nice to know someone was listening."

I believe that feeling comfortable and cared about are essential to your counseling experience. Positive change occurs when the client feels heard and empowered. When trust is established, clients feel safe in knowing that they can be honest. If you have lost a loved one, found yourself down in the dumps, feel anxious, or are experiencing other life challenges then it may be time to seek professional help. I offer an inviting atmosphere and a safe place in which clients can learn about themselves and develop the skills to overcome their challenges. I offer Christian counseling for those who are seeking this service.

I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner who has worked with a variety of clientele. I want nothing more than to collaborate with my clients in order to help them discover the problems they want and/or need to work on, what strategies would work best to improve those problems, implement strategies, problem solve, and help my clients to build a life worth living. Together, we will focus on the physical, mental, and emotional conditions of your life and I will support you in many different ways to help you grow in each of those areas.

I've spent most of the last decade working with children of all ages and their parents tackling concerns and frustrations related to Autism Spectrum Disorder, Reactive Attachment Disorder, ADHD, depression and anxiety symptoms. I enjoy helping families better understand each other through increased communication, clear agreements, and understanding each other's love languages and learning styles.

Everybody has bad days now and then when they feel down, anxious, angry or worse. But when bad days turn to bad weeks or months, talking to a professional might help. As a licensed psychologist I provide counseling for adults dealing with many issues including depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug use, relationship concerns, stress management, or coping with everyday life problems. Email today to inquire about an appointment.

I care about people and I want to help. Helen Keller is quoted as saying, "The only way out is through" and I believe you don't have to do it alone. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together in a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment. We partner to increase awareness of your thoughts and feelings, identify your values and goals, and practice actions to help keep you moving forward. Together we can identify and acquire effective skills to get your life to how you want it to be. You can do this. You have more ability than you may realize.

I take a holistic health approach, focusing on treating and supporting the person as a whole. All facets of life are examined including mental, emotional, physical, nutrition & social to help determine the best plan for healing. I strive to create a safe environment that is welcoming to all and goes beyond focusing on an illness and eliminating symptoms, but rather create a positive approach to life. The best way to schedule is via email dezi@monarch-counseling.com or work phone 308-360-2444

I work primarily with adults with a wide range of presenting problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, OCD, bipolar, etc. My early training and early career jobs were in agencies serving primarily children and adolescents. I have shifted to working primarily with adults, but continue to keep my hand in a bit of therapy with adolescents. My background in child/adolescent therapy has been useful in working with adults struggling with their children, teens, and adult children. I also enjoy working with couples struggling with the trials and complexities of being in a marriage.

For me, it is important to build a positive and candid therapeutic relationship first. My therapy partner, Grayson the Golden Retriever (picture below), is also on hand to provide comfort (if desired) during our therapeutic partnership. I work with teens, college students, and adults to assist in times of transition, new relationships, past relationships, and stress. I look forward to being a valuable part of your process. Grayson is AKC Canine Good Citizenship (CGC) Certified. He is always happy to help.
