Connect with Coping Skills therapists in La Vista, NE

Congratulations on starting therapy! My goal is to help people navigate life transitions, challenges of anxiety and depression, or just stress in general. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral therapy, grounded in empathy, with a deep understanding of how life's pressures can impact our emotional and physical well-being.

I treat each person individually, not with a cookie-cutter approach. As a team, we focus on strengths and set goals together. I have extensive experience in trauma, family systems issues, children with behavioral challenges, and medical diagnoses impacting life quality.

Therapy starts with a conversation. I look forward to meeting you and discussing any challenges you're facing. No judgment—you'll have a safe place to vent and for me to listen.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner in Nebraska with nearly 20 years of experience. I hold a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and multiple master’s degrees, with experience in courts, prisons, residential care, and high-acuity mental health settings.

Feeling stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges? You’re not alone. I help clients navigate anxiety, self-doubt, and life's stressors with curiosity and compassion. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and better able cope with challenges.

I work with people of all ages struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and anger management issues. I also focus on working with individuals experiencing chronic pain and illness.

I believe in being able to come as you are, as your most genuine self. And sometimes that genuine self is a bit messy and we need support along the way, both which can be kind of scary.

Beginning therapy is a major step for you. I commend you for having the courage to start it. I am here to support you through that process to enable your success. My specialties include facilitation through a multimodal approach for those with trauma/grief, depression, anxiety, and developmental issues.

I’m a mental health therapist who is passionate about helping people heal, grow, and find new ways forward. Many of the people I work with come to me carrying the weight of past trauma or going through big life transitions, and my goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where they don’t have to go through it alone.

Life can throw us curveballs! Having a compassionate sounding board can make all the difference. My goal is to offer perspective that helps bring you into alignment with your values and goals.

Maybe you've thought about making changes for a long time, and now you're finally ready. I understand this can be a big decision, especially if you're new to counseling. Sometimes minor changes result in huge positive outcomes. I'm looking forward to being part of that process with you.

Starting therapy can be a big and scary step, but you are doing it, and that's your first big achievement! I work with a variety of diagnoses and ages. I focus my treatment plan on a client-centered approach and develop it around that.

I utilize an approach that incorporates existential, cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and developmental strategies in the resolution of situational, personal, and relational challenges. I have worked with individuals and families in groups from ages 3 to 87 with issues related to mood, anxiety, trauma, personality, and relationship difficulties.

I work with people navigating the hard, messy, meaningful parts of life—trauma, addiction, grief, body image, sex, and relationships. I'm here for the deep stuff, the complicated stuff, and the parts you maybe haven't said out loud yet. My goal is to help you find clarity, strength, and a way forward without judgment.

I have been working with youth of all ages and in a number of settings and roles for the last 25 years. I truly appreciate coming alongside to witness when everything comes together, and their goals are met. I never take for granted the trust that my clients have put in me as they go through their therapeutic journey.
