Whichever path you are on in your life, you may have the desire to make positive changes but struggle to know how. I strive to use a holistic, individualized approach to help you discover ways to find resolutions within your life. I believe each individual has the power within themselves to heal and develop positive changes. You deserve to heal, to be heard, and understood. I understand the importance of finding a therapist that is a right fit for you and how important building a positive rapport is for the therapeutic process.

I have immediate availability. Every individual deserves to experience peace and joy in their lives, regardless of their circumstances.

These are common challenges that many face, and I'm here to offer support and guidance.

Life does not always work out the way you hoped or expected. When this happens, you may experience a range of emotions… disappointment, anger, depression and even grief. Would you like to move past these painful feelings? As real healing encompasses the whole person, mind, body and spirit, I will work to accompany you on your journey towards wholeness. I offer a gentle, non-judgmental, calming approach where you will feel safe and accepted. I have an interest in working with persons experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, caregiver burnout, chronic or terminal illness and trauma.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who offers individual therapy services to adults. I offer in-person sessions or telehealth to clients in Nebraska or Iowa. During my career, I have had experience working in a variety of mental health settings. I am passionate about working with individuals struggling with perinatal mental health issues, stress, grief, anxiety, depression, OCD and trauma.

Hey, I'm Evelynn! I enjoy working with a variety of issues, but I'm especially passionate about working with gender expansive clients! I'm a transgender woman, and my experiences absolutely inform how I approach working with my clients. I will provide space to explore which aspects of expression, pronouns, sexuality, and other elements you want to incorporate into your gender. There are no wrong answers, but we'll work together to find one you are comfortable with! I also have found neurodivergence (Autism Spectrum & ADHD) and eating disorders as additional specialties through working with the LGBTQIA2S+ community.

Personally & professionally, I believe: 1) Attention is our most precious resource. 2) Most of us use only a fraction of our full potential. 3) Our perceived weaknesses are closely related to our greatest strengths. 4) Through intentional daily practice, we can improve the quality of our experiences. 5) Over time we can heal from trauma, unlearn harmful habits, and create meaning from loss.

At some point in your life you may find yourself feeling unproductive, unsatisfied, stressed out, or even stuck in pattern's of self-destructive feelings and behaviors. Would you like to find yourself feeling more clear, hopeful, decisive and energetic? Would you like to learn mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance?

Sometimes life is hard. It seems like people are feeling the pressures of life more and more from every different area of their life. In therapy with me, we can talk through and process stressors. What you can expect from me is a caring, patient, sensitive, sometimes humorous, dedicated listener. We will work together to tailor your care and needs. Sometimes people just need to talk and be heard. Other times, people need tools, skills, tasks to practice improving their life that are realistic and manageable. As of Summer 2024, I have a few opening for telehealth only.

You might be experiencing one of these: gnawing anxiety in your chest that just won’t leave you, dominates your thoughts, is changing how you live. Or the circling, dark thoughts of depression, where there is no pleasure in anything and everything is hopeless. Or maybe the effects of past, buried trauma have become unmanageable, and how you used to cope is not working. Or, you have lost someone you love, and life now feels unwanted and impossible. Or despite others’ complaints, you can’t conceive of going without either alcohol, drugs, porn, food, or relationships to feel normal or valuable, to get through the day with less pain

You are invited to come in just as you are. You do not have to know what your mental health path looks like or how your sessions will go. You do not even have to prepare. All you need to do is show up and allow me to help in holding space so you can explore your own thoughts, needs and feelings in a safe space. It is my honor to be part of your healthcare team and support you on your journey.

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.

Therapy or Counseling is defined as "helping people live happier, healthier, and more productive lives". As a therapist I apply research-based techniques to help my clients develop more effective habits and behaviors.

You will also notice I am passionate about understanding your unique life story, including the personal struggles for which you are seeking professional care.

I believe that all people possess innate wisdom and capacity for growth. Overwhelming experiences that are unprocessed can leave us feeling stuck and confused about how to move forward. Our work will help you learn how to turn toward what hurts with curiosity and kindness in order to heal. We will work together to identify and practice communication and self-regulation skills needed to develop healthy relationships with self and others.

In our journey through life, we may be faced with challenges that leave us feeling stuck, or in need of guidance to follow our desired paths. At times, we all may struggle to heal or make changes within ourselves. Whether it be anxiety, depression, stress at work, problems in relationships, or unhealthy cycles, life can become overwhelming for all of us at times. Seeking counseling is not a weakness, it is a strength! We all have the capacity to change, grow, and heal from traumas or other difficulties we may face.
