  • LIMHP

As a licensed therapist in Nebraska, I bring 25 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenging life transitions, mental health concerns, and personal growth. I specialize in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and relationship dynamics with compassionate, personalized care.

My therapeutic approach is holistic and client-centered, focusing on empowering individuals to develop deeper self-understanding, improve communication skills, and cultivate resilience. I have extensive expertise in supporting older adults, women, young adults, and individuals facing diverse life challenges—from workplace stress to relationship transitions, chronic health conditions, and personal identity exploration.

I am committed to creating a safe, affirming space where clients can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop meaningful strategies for emotional well-being. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering professional guidance and support as you move toward greater self-acceptance and personal transformation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
