About me
I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner based in Nebraska since 2019. My focus is helping adults manage issues like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, life transitions, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts.
You might be here looking for extra support because you are feeling sad, lonely, not wanting to get out of bed in the morning, or on the verge of panic. You could be dealing with self-harm, difficult thoughts, needing help through a challenging time, or searching for a sense of meaning. I provide a safe, empathetic, and supportive atmosphere, drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as my primary approach. During our initial sessions, we will take time to get to know each other and discuss your specific concerns. I care deeply about this work as it allows me to support you as you grow, find new insights, and develop strategies to cope.
Taking that next step to reach out can be tough, but I am here to welcome you with warmth, understanding, and support.
