As a Provisionally Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (PLMHP), I am passionate about having individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional and psychological well-being. My approach to counseling is rooted in empathy, active listening, and a deep commitment to fostering personal growth and healing. I am here to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while developing the tools necessary to lead more fulfilling lives.

Many of us did not grow up knowing that it was important - and okay - to take care of our mental health. We heard talking about going to the doctor when you are sick, but nothing about seeking counseling - therapy - when our thoughts, feelings, or behaviors aren't well. But seeing a therapist is just as important and normal as visiting your doctor. Our minds and bodies are one, endlessly affecting one another both positively and negatively. If we are unwell physically, then our mental health can suffer AND vise versa.

I have been working in the field of mental health and addiction for over 20 years. I am also a certified hypnotherapist. I treat individuals and couples.

I have worked in the Omaha and surrounding communities for over 30 years in community service agency and private practice . I am licensed for both mental health and alcohol/drug counseling. I have had the opportunity to experience a wide variety of issues that people bring to psychotherapy as well as being mentored by leading practitioners in the area. My general area of practice involves treating adolescents and adults with concerns or questions related to depression/anxiety, substance abuse, relationship/marriage, sexual orientation/gender identity/coming out, and trauma. I work with individuals, families and couples. My office is a Safe Space for LGBTQ clients.

Every person is unique and capable of realizing their potential in an optimal environment. However, life is filled with so many challenges and it is not unusual to feel discouraged or unable to meet those challenges. Building a relationship based on acceptance and trust with my clients is my priority. I listen carefully and help them develop an understanding of what has led them to unsatisfying thoughts, feelings and behaviors. We explore and identify how significant past experiences have shaped their present life.When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.

I have a passion for working with 3 groups of people:; adolescents, adult men and women and couples. I work from an office in Omaha and do Telehealth as well. I am an EMDR trained therapist who combines parts work with EMDR. One goal is to help people reduce distressing emotions and regain positive ones and change those haunting negative self beliefs. . .

My approach to therapy is about connection and self-compassion. I use a direct approach in a relaxed environment without judgement. I have a particular interest in working with people who have relationship issues, lack of connection to their emotions, or who are going through life transitions. I have extensive experience integrating somatic work with the science of attachment and nervous system regulation along with attunement. I am certified in Somatic Experiencing and use DARe Attachment along with EMDR in most sessions.

I treat adults and adolescents with addictive behaviors, depression, anxiety, oppositional behaviors, and/or trauma history. I also help to guide family members of those with addictions. I enjoy seeing the progress that people make in all areas of their life when they are able to put aside addictive behaviors, reduce their emotional pain, and genuinely feel better about themselves. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and have used it to help people heal from trauma and reduce overall anxiety. I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Theory in my approach.

I work with individuals with a wide range of concerns. My clinical specialties and interests include disordered eating, body image, obesity and weight loss, LGBTQ, gender identity, phase of life transitions, grief/loss, relationships, assertive communication, issues related to trauma/adverse life experiences, holistic health and wellness, self-compassion, and promoting self-awareness and insight. My background includes significant experience in the delivery of behavioral health care including individual psychotherapy and inpatient, intensive-outpatient, and outpatient groups. In addition to my experience with psychotherapy services, I also complete psychological assessments, provide supervision to pre-doctoral psychology interns, and consultation services.

Seeking guidance for your life can be difficult, I understand how hard it can be to reach out for help. I believe that self-improvement and a life of joy and hope are possible for all people, no matter their struggles. I provide psychotherapy to help my clients identify problem areas in their lives that they want to overcome, set small goals to achieve their desired outcome, and help them make connections between how events in their past are driving their emotions, thoughts, and decisions today.

I have a passion for working with clients to build them up and guide them to discover their true self. I love working with patients as they find ways to motivate themselves, evolve and discover what their potential could be. I have worked with the homeless population, correctional facilities, and with people who are just trying to find a way to better their lives. I am currently being Supervised by a Licensed Clinical Supervisor who has been my main supervisor for almost 2 years.

Do you face issues like anxiety, depression, PTSD, or relationship challenges? Do your needs include understanding, empathy, and guidance in a safe space? Do your goals involve self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and improved communication? By seeking my help, we can work together to address the root causes, heal, and grow. My approach offers evidence-based techniques and personalized care, empowering you to make meaningful changes and achieve mental health and well-being.

I work to help clients find harmony and balance within their lives. I work with clients who are seeking support in relationships, help in reducing symptoms of anxiety or depression, and those who would like to unpack past experiences. I have experience working with adolescents/teens, families, and couples. My experience also includes working with those recovering from substance abuse and who have past complex trauma.

Are you struggling with the pressures of life? Do you have strong, over whelming emotions that seem to come from out of nowhere? Do you feel angry, or irritable, most of the time and don’t know why? Perhaps you don’t feel anything at all, and wish there was more to life than what you are experiencing now. Perhaps you already have a mental health diagnosis or another diagnosis of infertility or cancer or are struggling with a chronic illness. Are you part of the military, or a military family member, and are struggling with all that comes with that role including traumatic experiences, secondary trauma, and stress from many moves?

Sometimes the ways of the world and personal stressors conflict with what we need to be ok. It can often be difficult to manage and cope with how racism, violence, employment, chronic illness, relationships, parenting, abuse, and past trauma impacts one’s mental and physical health. If your goal is to learn who you are and how to live your authentic self, you have arrived at the right place. I utilize Integrative therapy, which makes room for inclusivity and flexibility at meeting client differences. This includes Cognitive Behavioral, DBT, Family Systems, Gestalt, etc. Diversity in people demands diversity in approaches!
