Therapists Beginning With P in Nebraska

Is your child struggling with overwhelming emotions of anxiety or sadness? Are you concerned about your child’s increased explosive behavior or aggression? Do you worry about their family/peer relationships? You are not alone! My passion is helping children discover and build upon their unique set of gifts and abilities so they are able to develop the problem solving and coping skills needed for healing and growth. I will partner with you to help your child develop the skills they need to be successful, happy and healthy!

My therapeutic lens is rooted in the tenants of social work and social justice. As a clinician I meet clients where they are and recognize that no person functions outside of their environment. So as we delve into issues of mental health symptoms, we will also be investigating how society at large plays a role in our health. I lean heavily on psychodynamic processing and a focused mindfulness practice called Brainspotting. I also engage clients through CBT, DBT, and narrative therapy. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly (and a part of the community, too), and am continually in the process of being anti-racist.

Licensed in multiple states including Oregon, Nebraska, Alaska, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, Colorado, Michigan, Washington, Arizona, and Montana. I offer online psychology and counseling teletherapy services designed to connect your recovery plan to your home environment and help you heal, grow and re-engage with your life following a catastrophic injury. I am happy to work with you individually, but also work with a team of allied health professionals to help with complex neurological, limb loss, and orthopedic injuries with a full suite of outpatient telerehabilitation services.

As a licensed therapist, I have experience working with children, teens, and adults with various concerns. I am dedicated to everyone with whom I work, though my heart is drawn particularly to supporting young adults who are facing the intricacies of independence, education, career choices, and personal growth. I am committed to creating a safe and affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals where you can explore your identity, overcome obstacles, and celebrate your unique journey. Whether you're navigating coming out, relationship dynamics, or mental health concerns, I'm here to provide the compassionate support you deserve.

Does it ever feel like life has gotten too overwhelming? All the things you’re experiencing are happening so fast and it feels like it can all be too much. I want to offer an opportunity to explore some of these struggles and how you can navigate your life to feeling better. It is my goal to provide you a warm and inviting environment that is safe for you to feel seen, heard, and understood in your exploration of yourself and your experiences. I know that you have strengths and therapy is an opportunity to use those strengths to reach your goals.

In therapy I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among patients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the patient and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.

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 a therapist, I aim to empower and challenge you to think outside the box and use your skills and unique perspective to create and maintain the changes you want. You are the director of your own life. Sometimes, life can be challenging, things change, and sometimes we feel stuck. In life, we experience both positive and negative complex emotions and processing them can feel overwhelming.

Discussing mental health challenges can be difficult at any age. It is my goal to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment for clients to express their feelings in a way that is supportive and empowering. I have over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, teens, and families as they navigate interpersonal relationships, transitions, and life's difficult moments.

Life is hard. There are so many things that can happen in our lives that result in us feeling stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed.
