Teletherapy for Nebraska

Every person is unique and capable of realizing their potential in an optimal environment. However, life is filled with so many challenges and it is not unusual to feel discouraged or unable to meet those challenges. Building a relationship based on acceptance and trust with my clients is my priority. I listen carefully and help them develop an understanding of what has led them to unsatisfying thoughts, feelings and behaviors. We explore and identify how significant past experiences have shaped their present life.When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.

“There is no darkness without a light”. We all have experienced, at one time or another emotional darkness. Therapy is the way to walk you through the light. I am here to support you. Therapy with me is a collaborative effort. I provide a free judgement zone and you are entitled to every emotion. It is not easy seeking help and I’m proud of you starting your process in finding a provider. Together we will work to create a safe space where you can grow, heal, and reach the light. My goal is to assist individuals through life’s challenges.

I have a full and deep life of experience to draw from in meeting my clients in sacred space. The loss of a son, a marriage, a career, accumulated material rewards, and most importantly, the potential of life unlived; dreams unfulfilled. This is soul work. Prepared by the vulnerability of my story, I hold insight and compassion for those whose burdens must be eased into, passed through, and reborn into new purpose, for the quality of our life is in our overcoming. Navigating the troubled waters of depression, anxiety, relational fissures, and archetypal energies is the first threshold of a healing journey.

Everyone deserves help, including you. It can be beneficial to talk with someone who has an independent perspective. My previous work experience includes conducting individual, family and group therapy at Tecumseh State Correctional Institution, Reception and Treatment Center, Nebraska Correctional Center for Women and within the emergency department at CHI Health Center - Immanuel. I have experience working with addiction and substance abuse issues as well as clients whose gender identity, socioeconomic class, race, or ethnicity have historically been marginalized.

The idea that sustainable happiness is an unattainable goal, is a tricky one. It's that thing we say to ourselves: "if I just ____ then I will be happy ...or if they just ____ then I will be happy." I prefer the idea of moving toward being more content. Isn't content what we feel when we are comfortable, calm, validated and without anxious or depressive thoughts that mess with our days? Often, if not almost always, we have traumas (big or small) and mean/sad/negative inner voices and thoughts that, if we process them, we can get to our contentedness.

At Origins, we are committed to supporting the whole person. We are dedicated to our mantra of "Health by choice, not by chance.". As a therapist, I believe that a person's emotional, physical and spiritual health are all equally important and one cannot exist without the others. For this reason, I work from a client's strengths to help them identify their goals and take deliberate, measurable and achievable steps toward finding the happiness and joy they desire in life. Emotional intelligence, communication effectiveness, relationship skills, mindful living and healthy parenting are some areas of focus.

I believe in the power of human connection to get us through life’s challenges. Reaching out for help in our most vulnerable moments can be difficult and overwhelming. Our self-talk can be so convincing that we should figure things out on our own or that our problems aren’t as bad as they could be, that we remain stuck. I will meet you where you are in your challenge, providing a safe and calming environment to explore avenues to find hope and healing. My work takes a holistic approach integrating the mind, body and spirit connection to help you create a strong foundation to meet those challenges.

Do you struggle and feel like your life is out of control? I have been helping individuals and families for 30 plus years. My specialties are family conflict, anxiety, fear, or depression. I feel that many people who struggle in life, struggle with having a good work, life balance. I have trained several people on how to have a better work-life balance and get the best out of their life. I love to work with individuals or families and how to make small changes that can make a big impact. If you feel like this is what you need, give me a call and see how we can make those little changes to bring about a big impact.

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.

Do you need help navigating through life after getting a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder? Do you need help helping your child navigate through life after getting a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder or a developmental disability? Reach out to get help in this area with me.

My passion is helping couples and individuals create happier more peaceful lives.

Going to a counselor can be pretty frightening; my goal is to make it as comfortable as possible. I believe that we all need help at times to work through difficult issues in our lives. I count it a privilege to help clients with the stresses of life. Beginning therapy can be a big step toward being the healthiest version of yourself and living the best life possible-no matter what challenges you may be facing. Through therapy, you can change self-destructive behaviors and habits, resolve painful feelings, improve your relationships, and more.

I have openings on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I know that wanting to maintain and improve your mental health can feel scary to do alone, we all want to be heard and feel seen by others. Often times talking and questioning can bring the clarity you're looking for. Whether you're ready to do the work, or just exploring, having someone to work with goes a long way. I am accepting new clients. I enjoy working on boundaries and self-worth.

Choosing to seek counseling can be overwhelming and it's often done at a difficult time. I strive provide a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space for you to talk, learn about yourself and ultimately heal. Together we will decide what approach will work best for you and set achievable goals. My role is to support you as you figure out what's working, what isn't, and how you can get back on track.

Hello & Welcome! My office has gone online with services. Online Counseling & Coaching allows you to meet with your counselor from the convenience, comfort, and privacy of your own home, office, or preferred location. I use an encrypted site for all of my appointments, which includes at the time issued meetings that are password protected. All appointments are generated by an invite by email. Payments are processed before the time of services by an email generated PayPal invoice. This is an easy payment method and you do not have to have a PayPal account to pay invoices. You will need a phone or computer with video and audio.

Sometimes we hit a point in our lives when we are unsure of where to go, what we want or what we need. We feel emotionally drained and need support and encouragement to move forward. Therapy is about learning how and when to make changes in your life. Focused on addressing physical and mental challenges, I strive to provide client-focused therapy that fits your needs. I will meet you where you are and provide you with the encouragement and skills you need to make the changes you want in your own life. I am licensed in Texas, Nebraska, Iowa and Colorado and able to provide telehealth (anyone) or in-person counseling (in NE).

Please read: Currently offering waitlist only. Do you feel like there are never going to be any better days ahead? My goal working with you is to help you see those better days can be a reality not a distance dream. One of the things that I have love about being a therapist is that I can work with diverse clients, with diverse needs, and diverse goals. No client is the same and that is how I approach treatment, individually. I integrate several different therapeutic approaches to meet client's individual needs.

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.

As a psychotherapist, I can assist you in unlocking your innate potential. In our busy lives we tend to lose perspective and neglect caring for the body, mind and inner self. In psychotherapy, you are assessed in a holistic manner using a biopsychosocial approach and together we work on areas of your life that are in need of examination and healing. You will feel safe and supported on your journey and will never be judged for being who you are. I enjoy working with clients from a diverse background and embrace diversity in my practice. I'm open-minded, compassionate, experienced (but not stuffy), and have a sense of humor.
