Therapists in Lincoln, NE

Every person wants happiness and contentment, but we also face challenges that leaves us confused, or even stuck. I realize it may not always be easy coming to a therapist, but personal growth, empowerment, and feeling whole are wonderful gifts to yourself. My hope is to foster trust by providing a safe environment to make sense of thoughts, feelings and pain. I love what I do and feel honored to gain your trust and hear about life, joys, and struggles.

Encountering stressors on a weekly basis - or even daily basis - are common human experiences. Whether it's at work, school, home, sport, or various other public settings, you can learn ways to gradually feel relief and move forward through therapy. Sometimes it can feel as if our problems may never go away, especially if we feel we are the only ones going through it. But having a person there to talk to and be a listening ear can help ease that tension slightly, or more preferred, tremendously. My approach to counseling begins with meeting the client where they are and walking with them on their journey to where they want to be.

For over 17 years, I've been providing individual counseling to clients in their time of need. I’m a licensed therapist in Nebraska and Maryland. I believe in creating a safe and supportive space where you can openly discuss the things that are distressing and impacting your life, without judgment. I have extensive experience helping clients overcome a wide range of challenges, from depression, anxiety, and stress to grief and lo

You're up at night thinking of all the things you should have done today. Your downtime is never really downtime because your to-do list is a mile long. Maybe you're more irritable than normal, getting frustrated at little things that didn't bother you before. Through the busyness of everyday life, you might find yourself thinking, "I'm fine" or "It's not that bad," just to keep pushing through. And, perhaps, growing up in a family where feelings were brushed under the rug make the "I'm fines" feel almost believable. The good news? You're not alone and you don't have to always feel this way.

Modern life is stressful. We often feel like we don't have enough time, enough money, enough energy, or enough confidence in ourselves. We spend too much time feeling anxious or depleted. There is an alternative to the constant, unrelenting treadmill and chaos. There is another way of being present in your life and available to those you love. I practice Mindfulness-Based Psychology and Mindful Self-Compassion. By learning these skills, you can begin to slow down, befriend yourself, and make choices that reflect and further your values and dreams, rather than those imposed on you.

I am skilled at helping through the day to day struggles of anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, although my door is always open. Therapy should feel like a safe space to begin working through the tough stuff that has come up in life, and my goal is to help you discover the tools and skills to press on in this journey no matter what the circumstances. My job is not to tell you what to do, but rather to support you as you journey unfolds.

You strive to be the best, the best partner, the best parent, the best at the office, but you always feel like you fall short. Will life always be this chaotic and exhausting? Despite your best efforts, there never seems to be enough time in the day. After caring for so many others in your life, you struggle to care for yourself. You're constantly running on empty. Although you recognize the patterns in your life you don't want to repeat, you can't seem to stop the cycle. You're stuck and not sure what to do next. U will also learn coping techniques and problem solving skills while attaining a deeper understanding of your emotions.

Relationships are vital to becoming a whole person, including your relationship with yourself. But quality relationships don't happen by accident. Real love is built the old fashioned way - through hard work. Whether you're struggling with how you view and treat yourself or struggling with others, therapy is a wise investment and can help you learn to manage the very best of who you are. This involves developing a skill set that will enable you to learn how powerful you really are in forming lasting connections with others and take an honest look at the barriers to those connections.

At Intentions we believe that YOU are valuable and important. Even on your hardest days. We take an approach that considers you the expert on your own life and our role is to support, empathize, love and empower you to make the change you wish to see in your life. Our practice believes in using therapeutic skills to teach you how to enhance your life by increasing the hope that may have been damaged or lost over time. We are honored to walk this journey with you. We have a diverse team of experienced clinicians who can help children, adults, families/couples with anxiety, trauma, depression, personality or substance use issues

I believe everyone has the capacity for change. Often times we need guidance, or a gentle push, to get there. I offer a safe and welcoming environment for you to process and create realistic goals for where you are today. I believe all can benefit from therapy throughout their lives, to help support, encourage and cheer you on in your journey.

I strongly believe that therapy should not be limited to addressing immediate issues, but should also focus on long-term growth and fulfillment. In my practice, I encourage my clients to explore their goals and aspirations and work towards leading more fulfilling lives. By identifying their values and strengths, they can make meaningful changes and create a life that aligns with their true selves. If you or someone you know needs support, I am here to help. Whether you are struggling with PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or any other mental health concern, I want to support you on your path to a more fulfilling life.

Sorting through hundreds of therapist profiles when you are already struggling sucks. "Let me just put my anxiety down while I scroll through the headshots of folks I am going to have to cold-call before we even get to talk about how I worry and overthink everything." "I know my depression makes it hard for me to get out of bed, but how about I narrow down a bunch of options and make a really big decision?" "I have a history of awful relationships, attachment injuries. PTSD, or C-PTSD-but by all means let me try to pick someone out that I am going to need to be really vulnerable with." I get that this process can be weird and hard.

No one escapes the Human Condition. It can be brutal. In this journey how can you be true to yourself? You must know yourself to be true to yourself. Often easier said than done. How can you also be true to yourself with the least amount of harm to others? What are your core values-rules? Where did you learn them? Do they serve you or cause you (or others) harm? Do you have freedom of choice? Do others in your life have their freedom of choice? How do you move toward YOUR greatest & highest good, without causing harm to others? If you've heard "That's too deep, I don't want to talk about that", call me, we shall explore & learn!

At Origins, we are committed to supporting the whole person. We are dedicated to our mantra of "Health by choice, not by chance.". As a therapist, I believe that a person's emotional, physical and spiritual health are all equally important and one cannot exist without the others. For this reason, I work from a client's strengths to help them identify their goals and take deliberate, measurable and achievable steps toward finding the happiness and joy they desire in life. Emotional intelligence, communication effectiveness, relationship skills, mindful living and healthy parenting are some areas of focus.

My ideal client is the person whose life has not turned out the way he or she thought it would. He or she is unhappy, unsatisfied, engaged in unhealthy patterns and unsuccessful relationships, and feels helpless, hopeless, confused, and overwhelmed. I believe everyone has the power to make positive changes in their lives. My job is to hear them and guide them toward that change.

No matter your past, deep and lasting healing is possible through holistic care for the mind, body, and spirit. I focus on the whole individual, helping to turn a vicious cycle of poor physical, mental, and spiritual health into wellness and thriving. I use a customized, integrative approach to address your specific needs. I promise to walk with you during this chapter of life, empowering you to leverage your past experiences to write a beautiful and authentic next chapter. I will provide targeted customized therapy that will allow you to truly heal - and perhaps more quickly than you think possible!
