Sexual Addiction Therapists in Omaha, NE

Are you a Sexual and/or Pornography Addict? Do you think your spouse/partner might be? If so, I can help you assess that and provide treatment for each of you. I offer individual, couple, and group therapy. I also treat depression, anxiety, abuses, grief & loss, obsessions, codependencies, & other addictions.

I work with you to address concerns that are keeping you from fully embracing and enjoying life. Perhaps it is trauma, depression, addiction, difficult relationships or low self-esteem that are keeping you from living with the freedom you desire. Perhaps you are looking for a place where you can talk about your relationship with God or explore the things that give meaning to your life. Perhaps there are other concerns for which you are considering counseling. I welcome the opportunity to be a companion and guide with you on the journey to greater wholeness in living

Let's get honest, - if you are struggling with anxiety, depression, pornography, and intimacy issues, it is affecting your life. Counseling can be the answer. Struggles in relationships don’t occur during one spat or because of one negative event. Healing happens over a ​period of time as well, but don’t believe that old myth that says, “Time heals all wounds.” I have worked with many people who have discovered the source of their issues and found the right solutions.

Many people are experiencing the devastation of iporn-online pornography, chat rooms, escort and massage services- and other compulsive sexual behaviors. These compulsive behaviors can cause impotence, relationship crisis, depression and anxiety, job loss and legal problems. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist and Marriage and Family Therapist, I can help you overcome sex addiction and get your life back on track. See my book, The Storm of Sex Addiction available at www.amazon.com for more information about iPorn and sex addiction and details about my outpatient treatment program- STARPRO and other relationships services.

Does something need to change in your life, or are you making promises that seem harder and harder to keep? Feel like a cartoon character walking around with a storm cloud following you? Perhaps something happened to you that you didn't deserve, or you experienced something painful that feels fresh? Mental Health can be a mysterious stranger who lingers in your life unexamined or unquestioned, and it can impact every aspect of self and the different contexts you exist within (work-setting, family/kids, and other significant relationships). Most importantly it can distort what you see in the mirror everyday.

As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist as well as a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist- Supervisor, I am dedicated to helping you identify and overcome any intimacy challenges within the sex therapy realm, including sex/love addiction. This encompasses behaviors such as desire discrepency, successive unfulfilling relationships, affairs, excessive internet porn usage and intimacy anorexia. I also am a Certified Partner of Sex Addicts Specialist, and through a trauma based model, am able to help the Partner work through their own painful experience of loving and being involved with someone with out of control sexual compulsivity.

The decision to seek therapeutic help is never an easy one. It often comes at a time when most people feel hopeless, vulnerable, frustrated and unable to cope without outside help or resources. Recognizing this, I strive to provide my clients with the utmost respect and compassion, in a confidential and safe environment. I work together with my clients, in an authentic, collaborative way, to bring about positive changes that make sense in their life, according to their personal values. My specialty is Relationships & Sex Therapy, identifying & working w/ intimacy issues and infidelity. I am a AASECT Certified Sex Therapist.

I work with individuals/couples on relationship and sexual issues. Sexual and emotional satisfaction is nearly inseparable for both men and women! The defensiveness that damages relationships is often the same behavior that controls vulnerability and intimacy in the bedroom. Simple awareness of learned beliefs or unhelpful fears can create the space a healthy couple needs to heal. Sex and emotional connection shouldn't wait on the backburner until life gives us a break - emotional and sexual expression should mirror life! If that sounds challenging, remember, I don't suggest anyone to do anything they do not want to do!

What does it mean to "take care of your mental health?" It's easier to tell when you aren't taking care of it: chronic stress, exhaustion, worry, and panic are all signs your mental health is suffering. If untreated, you could start having nightmares, poor health, trouble in your relationships, and difficulty staying on top of work or school. There are many things that can lead to mental health struggles, like a too-busy schedule, a chronic illness or someone else's troubles, a major life transition, or a death of someone close to you. Or, it could seem to come out of the blue, caused by nothing at all.

Blue Sky Counseling offers specialized mental health counseling expertise to assist in the healing process to anyone who may be experiencing and suffering from a vast spectrum of mental health challenges. These may include issues such as behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, addiction issues, and life transitions. I adapt to you individually, depending on your needs, and work with you to create the best treatment plan to help you reach your goals. At Blue Sky Counseling, I believe strongly in applying a holistic perspective addressing your whole person not just the the bits and pieces of you.

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.

As a South-Asian immigrant and a New Yorker that grew up in the 80s, I’ve lived through lots of changes and challenges, but I’ve also learned how resilient humans can be. I've helped adults and children face life challenges like anxiety, depression, and numerous mental health challenges. I have a particular passion for working with children and adults with trauma history, adults with parenting struggles, men's issues, couples issues, and individuals going through a recent divorce/separation.

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.

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.

Life happens! We each determine how we are going to live it. I believe that you are called to overcome struggles, and to thrive in your journey. As a counselor and mental health therapist, I help individuals, married couples, and families along their journeys. Together we collaborate to develop a treatment plan tailored just for you, and then follow through with achieving your goals.

We are Faith Based Counseling. Wherever you may be in life's journey, we are committed to helping you find strength, knowledge, and the skills to break the patterns that damage relationships and cause emotional pain. It is our mission to help hurting people find genuine healing. The therapists at Spence Counseling Center specialize in marriage and family therapy, teens, grief and loss, sexual addictions, anxiety and depression, substance abuse, and other mental health issues.

I love to work with ALL couples who are experiencing relationship conflicts (including LGBTQIA2S+), families who need additional supports for parenting help, adolescents, younger adults, those in college and who are navigating changes, military personnel, and those looking to process any experienced trauma. I honorably served in the military for 27 years and have extensive experience in treating PTSD, trauma, depression, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, infidelity, and substance use/co-occurring disorders.

I enjoy walking alongside my clients and helping them wrestle with life's struggles. Each of my clients is a sacred individual, fully deserving honor and respect. I offer an engaging and compassionate approach to counseling that respects the individual and their choices while patiently exploring every area of their life.
