Career Counseling Therapists in Omaha, NE

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) who offers in-person or telehealth counseling services to clients in Nebraska or Iowa. I am passionate about working with individuals struggling with perinatal mental health issues, stress, grief, anxiety, depression and trauma. Together, we determine your goals and develop a treatment plan to meet your needs.

With life ever changing, managing a new diagnosis, routine, family dynamic or structure, or employment status can become the biggest obstacle. I strive to assist with processing the issue, creating problem-solving and coping skills, and preparing for upcoming changes. I am a non-judgmental, supportive, and collaborative therapist to cheer you on in your victories and be your helping hand during distress, all with the goal to create a happier and healthier you!

Anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions can be incredibly overwhelming and debilitating. The constant battle with negative thoughts, intense emotions, and physical symptoms can make it difficult to function daily. As a therapist, I understand the weight that these conditions can carry and the toll they take on one's well-being. That is why I am dedicated to providing a safe and compassionate space for my clients to come and share their feelings with me. I want my clients to know that they are not alone in their struggles and that I am here to support them every step of the way.

I believe in a rapport-based approach to therapy: mainly authenticity in communication and interpersonal development of relationships. I aim to remove stigmas and depathologize issues, focusing on outcomes over symptoms. My philosophy is that people are often unaware of their core values, or stressors have made them seem far too distant. When building acceptance around the reality of problems facing families, and focusing on objectives that improve wellness, change can occur. The behavioral interventions, objectivity, and support found in the therapeutic relationship help lead individuals and families to their goals.

I am experienced in child/adolescent, adults, family, and group therapy. I am a native of Nebraska. I earned my undergraduate and graduate degrees in clinical social work at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Welcome! We are accepting new clients. Exploring therapy is usually a pretty good indication that you're not feeling great right now. You may feel overwhelmed with the day to day or have something that happened recently that has triggered significant emotions or challenges. You might be looking to add some tools to your toolbox, discovering new insights about yourself, etc. I'd love to help!

Therapy can be life-altering. Scheduling the first appointment is intimidating, but it can significantly improve your quality of life if you open your mind to it. Engaging in therapy with a qualified therapist can enhance your ability to handle life stressors, overcome distressing emotions, and deal with difficult relationships. It is my mission to provide a healthy, supportive therapeutic environment for my clients so they can empower themselves to take control of their lives and increase their emotional well-being. I believe you deserve to feel good about yourself and your surroundings. Let me help you achieve that.

Sometimes we lose ourselves when we get caught up in the way we think we "should" be in various relationships, workspaces, and societal expectations. Losing or ignoring who we truly are can lead to relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and general life dissatisfaction. "Losing ourselves" can happen due to traumatic life circumstances and/or years of unrelenting pressures. Let's get curious about your passions, work together to let go of what's not working, and build a roadmap so you can step in to a more authentic you.

Are you questioning where you are in life? Do you need support identifying who you are and where you are trying to go? Are you satisfied with how you are navigating your personal and professional relationships? Are you ready to begin processing some of the people, places, and things that you have lost? If any of this resonates, lets get started!

Does your child/teen exhibit challenging behaviors and are you struggling to manage them? Have you (or your child) experienced a traumatic event? Are you dealing with work stress or relationship issues? I can help! I believe in a positive therapeutic relationship and working collaboratively with my clients to help them reach their goals and feel success. I'm committed to providing you with a safe, non-judgmental environment as you work through your challenges. I strive to help children manage their emotions and strengthen a parents natural abilities. I'm committed to helping you take control of your life and feel empowered.

Abraham Maslow once said “In any given moment, you have two options, step forward into growth, or backward into safety.” Each take courage and self reflection and I want to help you evaluate both. I am here to help you live a life of meaning and value. I provide therapy in a nonjudgmental, confidential, and compassionate atmosphere. We all feel stuck or lost at times, perhaps clueless of the way ahead. Through therapy, we can collaborate to rework the issues holding you back. Together, we can create a path to your most valued and meaningful living.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. Life (relationships, family, work, school, illness, and more) can knock us down causing us to feel a variety of emotions: discouraged, depressed, anxious, disappointed, confused, hopeless, not heard and many more. Whatever struggle or conflict you are facing, you are not alone. Life has many stages and transitions, which is normal, but if you're here, you probably don't feel so "normal". Therapy may feel scary, but most of my clients say it has liberating and life changing. I create a space where nothing is off limits, there are no judgements and every emotion is valid.

Everyone encounters challenges in their life that may feel overwhelming. Seeking counseling during these times is a sign of strength, as it suggests the willingness to address problems rather than avoid them. I teach solution-focused tools that clients can use in the real world. I have a collaborative approach with my clients and believe humor and empowerment are key components to therapy. If stressful thoughts are keeping you up at night, it may be a sign that you're ready tackle the things that are holding you back. I would like to help.

Do you sometimes feel like life is just too hard? ...sometimes daydream about giving up? Have you experienced things that have caused you shame and guilt, and do not feel safe sharing? "Just because you fell in the dirt doesn't mean you have to live in the dirt!" (Dr. Evans); Let me help you out of the dirt! I use a variety of individualized client-centered modalities to give you a real and noticeable sense of relief. Most importantly, healing happens within the relationship we build together - one of compassion, mutual respect, and validation. You've got it! Let's find it!

I work with individuals, couples, families, adolescents, children, and LGBTQs. I like to delve into the depression, anxiety, or whatever is troubling you to get at and transform, moving towards a productive satisfying life. I'm good at getting at the potential, power, genius, and strength which lies within, surfacing creativity, health, and well being. Usually, when one discovers their potential it is like dropping a pebble in the calm lake, rippling goodness for all around them.

I greatly appreciate you taking the time to read this and begin to take the first step towards your mental health and overall self-explore the potential of your growth. It's tough to manage feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, and past trauma alone. I believe it's important to provide a safe space to process and work through difficult situations.
