Your mind should be a safe place, and I can carry part of the mental load. If you are struggling with traumatic, anxious, self-critical, or intrusive thoughts, I can help. I work best with clients who are looking for change, appreciate a conversational style, and value a therapist who balances deep emotional processing with appropriate humor. I care for folks with PTSD, OCD, Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Depression, adjustment issues, relationship conflicts and more. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist offering individual therapy to people in the Lincoln and greater Nebraska area, both in person and online.
I approach all clients with curiosity and kindness, and I use client strengths as leverage for change. I use scientifically supported models like CBT, problem solving therapy and trauma informed care to create quick and lasting change. I have extensive experience working with perfectionists, high achievers, veterans, healthcare providers, parents, and more.
It's challenging to get accurate feedback as a therapist, but past clients have described me in anonymous feedback as “easy to talk to”, “truly wants to help me be a better person”, “trustworthy”, and, simply, “a good dude.” Frankly, praise doesn’t get much higher than that. Getting started can feel scary, but I am happy to provide a safe place to start.

I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, trauma, complex PSTD, OCD, social phobia, or depression. During our initial sessions we will discuss the history of your concerns, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month or so and continued improvement thereafter.

I often use behavioral therapies like CBT, ACT, PE, or CPT. I know, that's a lot of acronyms! The important thing to know is that I focus on building rapport, tailoring evidence based therapies to individual clients, and offering real strategies for practice outside of session. I believe in helping your mind become a safe and comfortable place.
