Therapists for Teens in Omaha, NE

Sometimes childhood is interrupted by crisis—feelings and situations too big for children, teens and families to deal with on their own. Often children (especially teens) express their sadness, fear and anger through their behaviors and attitude. This "acting out" is especially challenging to caregivers. Child Saving Institute (CSI) offers comprehensive mental health services including pediatric, adolescent and family therapy alongside psychiatric evaluations and medication management services to children, teens and young adults.

Does your child/teen exhibit challenging behaviors and are you struggling to manage them? Have you (or your child) experienced a traumatic event?

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.

If you waived a magic wand and everything was different what would your life be like? This is just one of the few questions I ask to explore your hopes and goals for therapy. I work with teen girls and women to craft a better life for themselves. Let’s explore your goals and the life you want to create.

Are you going through hard times? Are you feeling overwhelmed and frustrated? Do you or your child/adolescent feel stuck? Many individuals and families find themselves struggling in difficult situations. You have tried multiple approaches but are still not where you want to be. My purpose as a counselor is to support you as you process through the difficulties of life so that you may reach your full potential. I have over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents and adults with a variety of presenting mental health concerns.

Sometimes something unexpected occurs with ourselves or our family. This can produce many emotions that we are not sure how to handle. Therapy is a great place to process these emotions and unexpected events. With over 10 years of practice and extensive trainings focusing on trauma, attachment, anxiety and undesirable behaviors, I understand kids, teens and families. I am a mother of three and I “get” the stress that comes along with parenting, especially while navigating emotions and life experiences. Whatever your child/teen/family is experiencing, I understand and I am here to help!

Explore your brain. Unlock potential! My aim with Neurotherapy Center of Nebraska, Inc. is to bring my skills in Brain Mapping (Quantitative EEG), brain training (neurofeedback, EEG biofeedback, neuromodulation), biofeedback and psychotherapy to the Omaha area to meet the needs of the clients in my community. I have worked with child, adolescent and adult populations. The neurotherapy and neurocounseling I offer at NCN helps clients learn to self-regulate their brain and autonomic nervous system and has been shown to be an effective treatment for many mental and physical health conditions.

I work best with adolescent and adult clients who appreciate a direct, to-the-point approach. I give lots of feedback and make my thoughts known. This approach tends to open up awarenesses that may have been unknown for a very long time. It is exciting to see this process unfold in individual psychotherapy.

Life is full of adjustments and transitions. From childhood and teen years onto motherhood and parenting - and everything in between- navigating these stages with support can make the greatest impact, knowing you are not alone. I believe individuals need to feel heard, understood, and supported to find healing. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are and supporting them through these adjustments. I specialize in child therapy, as well as prenatal anxiety, postpartum depression, adjusting to parenthood, and women’s issues.

Is your child or teen getting on your last nerve? Are they defiant, angry, sad or withdrawn? Changes in the family structure, through a breakup, divorce, or death of a family member, often create confusion and unexpressed feelings in kids. Financial worries, relocating, peer pressure, violence, and other stressors at school and in the neighborhood, can lead to behavioral problems. Your child might have stopped opening up to you because they didn't want to worry you, or fear they'd be in trouble. I understand. I specialize in helping school-age children, teens, and their parents through challenging times.
