Relationship Issues Therapists in Omaha, NE

I want to create a safe and supportive atmosphere where people can discuss their lives freely without fear of judgement. While the specific goals of therapy are always decided by the client, my overarching goals with each person is that they will come to understand their worth as an individual, and will find freedom to fully engage with life. I believe in not only addressing issues that hold people back, but also in exploring their unique strengths and interests.

There are times in our lives that we can become stuck, not knowing how, where, or who to turn to. We may feel lost, alone, depressed, angry, traumatized, fragmented, hopeless, afraid - floundering & needing direction. Does this sound like your situation? I'll help you to untangle your emotional knots - so that you can rekindle your dreams toward living the life you truly deserve. I specialize in issues of empowerment with a focus on your humanity and relationships (less on diagnostic labels). Welcome!

Most of the time we can manage the ups and downs of life without extra support. Then something shifts, and it can feel like it all collapses like a house of cards. Quickly, it can feel like you don't even recognize yourself anymore. None of the skills you were using to successfully manage your life work like they used to. You're overwhelmed and at a loss for how to get unstuck. At times even the seemingly tiniest of changes can shake us to our foundations, and leave us feeling adrift; but change is often the perfect opportunity to grow.

As the parent of a child/teen that struggles with their wounded selves, you have tried everything. The exhaustive interventions that you have tried are going nowhere fast. Throwing in the towel is all that you have left. Your marriage is more daunting than it is invigorating and you keep hitting a wall with connecting to one another. Depression has you stuck in quicksand and the struggle is consuming you. Anxiety has its grip on you and it is controlling your life. You find yourself asking what more can you do? You feel all alone in your struggles and are having more moments of frustration than joy. Asking for help is hard.

I have two main areas of focus in my practice. The first is to "help make order out of your eating". The second is to help restore broken relationships. Struggles in both of these areas can lead to unhealthy levels of anxiety and depression, also within my scope of expertise. My goal is to help my clients regain control of their lives by empowering them to use the physical, emotional, social and spiritual assets they already have to their highest potential. I also do intensive trauma work using the Wall Work method designed by James Runyan.

Is your preschooler running your household? Has your teenager been pushing you to the edge? There are many different theories on how to manage unwanted behaviors in children, and help your struggling teen. Some of these theories can leave parents with more questions than answers. You might ask yourself, "Does my child need more attention, or am I giving too much? Are my expectations of my teenager too high, or too low? If I ask for help, does that make me a good parent, or an incompetent one?" I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families, and I can help you find answers.

I work with individuals and couples struggling with life issues and/or challenges surrounding their relationships. My subspecialty is sex therapy.

Thank you for making you and your mental health and wellbeing a priority. Sometimes that first step is the hardest to take. During difficult and challenging times people just want to be heard and validated in their experiences. Your feelings and experiences are 100% valid and I am here to help support you toward healthy change. Seeing a therapist can be intimidating, but I want you to rest assured knowing that my objective is to foster a safe, judgement free space where we can work together to build upon your strengths and accomplish your goals.

Psychotherapy accelerates a person's effectiveness and healthy functioning in the world s/he lives in. At the foundation of this process is genuine trust and respect, one that allows opportunities for exploring personal resources and strengths, habits of behavior, internal conflicts, disruptions of self-concept or attachment, familiar ways of thinking and relating, or to find ways to continue on the path chosen. Psychotherapy creates new distinctions about behavior and world view so as to act and view your self, relationships, and circumstances in new ways. Dr. Stormberg's approach is what Carl Jung described as "a practical psychotherapy to fit people for life."

My commitment as a therapist is to provide my clients with a compassionate environment that offers unconditional acceptance and support. Each client is seen as a unique individual. I believe that counseling promotes growth by building on existing strengths. Each client is guided through a process that allows for the enhancement of self-enpowerment and discovery.

Negative experiences in your past don't have to leave you anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed. Likewise, present politics, weather, and finances can produce symptoms. Process both, your past and the present, in healthy ways. Stresses from today can trigger past experiences and negative habits. I will help you get through today and give you hope for tomorrow. It makes no difference if you are gay or straight, faith or no faith, black, brown or white, you are welcomed here. Your concerns can be safely explored and your beliefs respected. Make today a turning point to a better life.

"Moody", "Overly Sensitive", or "Needy"- Are these words people use to describe you, or maybe how you describe yourself? Do you feel like your life is one stressful event after another? Does it seem like no one 'gets' you or people have given up on you? If you are looking for a therapist who wants to help you understand your feelings and improve your relationships, I might be the one for you.

Dr. Harlow offers a genuine approach in a warm, supportive atmosphere to help clients gain insight, make lasting changes, and improve their quality of life. People often seek therapy when their life is out of balance, when they are hurting, or when old solutions no longer work. I consider it a great privilege to accompany clients in their personal journey as they navigate the process of change.

My approach specializes in helping you understand why relationships or other aspects of life are not functioning as you hoped. We will work together to develop a plan, repair past pains and disappointments, and help you begin to living the life you always wanted. Your story and your pain have a purpose, and your voice matters. Depression, anxiety, a persistent fear of rejection, or feeling alone and hopeless can impact all aspects of life; including relationships, marriages, jobs/careers, and children. Together we will use your strengths and wisdom to find solutions, relief, and the enjoyment you deserve.

Every journey we make in life can be both exciting and scary. If you are considering a new journey, I can help guide and support you on your way to identify your goals and make the changes needed to improve your life. I am passionate about working with anyone ready to make a change for the better, whether it be couples, families, or individuals. I have a background working with a variety of people; individuals with depression and anxiety, as well as parents and children looking to make behavioral changes to improve daily life.

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.
