Somatic Therapists in Omaha, NE

My aim is to follow you into whatever calls for your attention, develop an authentic relationship and safe space to explore it, and use and provide tools and techniques as necessary. My work is informed by contemporary / relational psychodynamic theory, emotion-focused therapy (EFT), somatic therapy, parts work, and Buddhist psychology. I work with individuals, couples, and groups ages 12 and older, whether it be short-term and solution-oriented or long-term and exploratory.

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.

Whether you're a Christian feeling disconnected from God, in a relationship where you're feeling disconnected from your partner, or an individual feeling disconnected from yourself, I would love to work with you to find meaningful connection in any area of life.

I am committed to helping people learn how to build healthier relationships with themselves, their loved ones, and the world. Our work together will target past experiences, present life challenges, and steps towards your future life. I believe in giving the body its due and supporting you in gently bringing your mind and body back together. I believe that sometimes, we need to feel our way through difficult situations and emotions, rather than just thinking our way through hard times. I use an eclectic approach, including Brainspotting, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing. I additionally offer sound healing.

“Start close in…” What in you is hungry for answers? What might your life look like if you were deeply well fed by your choices? People come to me with hunger pangs. They're hungry for deep connection - to themselves, to a partner, to a job, to their life. They come to me craving answers - carrying persistent questions that may be contributing greatly to feelings of starvation, of wanting more. I partner with people who are searching for clarity, purpose, and more meaningful connections both personally and professionally. My clients seek to be better nourished by their life choices and feel more balanced in their relationships.

Welcome! I'm so glad you landed on my page. I am a strengths-based, client-centered, expressive arts therapist who sees teens and adults working through anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief/loss, relationship issues, identity questions, & trauma. The first thing I'll do when we meet is listen. I want to hear your story, in the way that you tell it. Together, we'll explore the parts of your story that are working for you, and the parts you want to shift; the parts of your story that are in your control, and those that are not. I will act as guide and witness to the work you do to move towards the life you want and deserve.

Hi, my name is Liz! As a mental health counselor, I accompany individuals through life’s challenges and bear witness to their experiences. I work to provide children, teens, and young adults the tools and a safe space to grow and succeed. I have experience working in the behavioral health field in outpatient, partial care, and home settings. I specialize in addressing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, ADHD, anger management, and other behavioral concerns.

In our journey through life, we may be faced with challenges that leave us feeling stuck, or in need of guidance to follow our desired paths. At times, we all may struggle to heal or make changes within ourselves. Whether it be anxiety, depression, stress at work, problems in relationships, or unhealthy cycles, life can become overwhelming for all of us at times. Seeking counseling is not a weakness, it is a strength! We all have the capacity to change, grow, and heal from traumas or other difficulties we may face.

Welcome! I have spent more than a decade in trauma work and understand the arduous process to release the debilitating grip past trauma can have on a client’s present-moment experience. I recognize the profound courage it takes to look deeply within. I prepare my clients to find that invisible line between comfort and discomfort to set the foundation for lifechanging results and encourage them to live in their own authentic truth. Trauma healing looks different for everyone and I work side by side with each of my clients to design a path of healing that feels right to them.

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.

My name is Mike Keegan, and I am licensed as an Independent Mental Health Practitioner in Nebraska. I help people process underlying trauma that leads to anxiety, depression, relational issues, and addictions. I utilize Somatic Experiencing, the Meadow's model, and other various trauma-informed approaches. If you are struggling with anxiety, sadness, shame, guilt, or feeling stuck in a rut, then I could be the right person to help you. I also have extensive experience working with veterans, first responders, and their family members.

Are you on a journey to discover your identity through self-exploration? Are you having a hard time adjusting to a new season of your life? Do you feel sad, anxious, or angry and have difficulty identifying why? Are you having difficulty navigating your relationships (e.g., friendships, intimate partnerships, or familial relationships)? You want to live a life where you are operating at your fullest potential. You want to remain who you genuinely are, even when faced with adversity. You want to work on identifying stressors and regulating your emotions.

I definitely understand that reaching out for therapy can cause anxious uncertainty and emotional discomfort. If this is the case, I'm SO GLAD you are making this courageous decision. Regarding my personality and therapeutic style, you will notice this immediately: I am warm, genuine, personable, light-hearted, and easy to connect with. You will also notice I am passionate about understanding your unique life story, including the personal struggles for which you are seeking professional care. I desire to relate to you as an equal, whole person rather than someone who "has all the answers." In sessions with me, you will know I care.

You can learn to navigate these, find relief, and experience life from an optimal state.

I am a Provisionally Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling through Wayne State College that I completed in 2022. I have experience with managing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, women's issues, coping skills development, perfectionism, intellectualizing, and trauma. I primarily work with teens and young adults. I also have experience working with the LGBTQ+ community in aligning with who they are, affirming care, and improving self-compassion. I have provided in-home, tele-health and outpatient services.

Are you looking for a safe place where you can be heard? Do you feel anxiety and depression are keeping you from living your fullest life? Is your relationship or marriage falling apart? Do you have intrusive thoughts that never seem to quit? If you're searching for someone who will listen, encourage and help you live the life you were created to live, I would like to meet with you. You will find an accepting environment based on honesty and respect where you can learn how to overcome and work through issues that may be causing you emotional discomfort and distress.

Is pain from the past inhibiting you from living the life you envisioned for yourself? Does it feel like you've been through so much that it's hard to even conceive of such an "envisioning?" Save that stuff for once you're out of survival mode, right? The fact is, trauma alone is not uncommon- it's part of being a human being. But for some of us, these traumas have been so severe that we can struggle to bounce back, feeling adrift and alone. Like journeying across the ocean when a storm cracks your mast, emotional trauma can leave us feeling lost, confused, and even desperate without a sail. How do we get back to dry land?

Have you ever wondered if rehashing all the painful parts of life isn’t the only possibility for feeling better? My first priority is to give you techniques, tools, and information to help you feel calmer, more grounded, and more engaged in life. I seek to help you connect more strongly to your sense of self and provide you with what you need to move forward in a way that feels meaningful to you. This often includes collaboration to shift unhelpful mental, emotional, and behavioral patterns.
