I’ve learned a ton from four years in community mental health - I’m not going to judge anything you bring to session! This gave me a foundation in crisis intervention, anger management, identity shifts, relationships, trauma, and substance use disorders.
I’m a fan of motivational interviewing, and I’ll affirm your thoughts and feelings often. I also give space to challenge thought patterns or behaviors that aren’t in line with your values. I love finding out what makes you feel like you and supporting all that that includes!
Hello, my name is Shawnda Connor. I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC). I grew up on a cattle ranch near Antioch Nebraska and graduated from Alliance High school. I completed my higher education at Grand Canyon University with my Bachelor’s in Psychology and Masters in Addiction Counseling. I help clients who have substance abuse or mental health or a combination of both diseases by utilizing evidence-based practices, trauma informed care, and harm reduction, I strongly believes in helping not only the individuals, but the families whose lives have been affected by mental illness or substance abuse by tailoring my therapeutic approach to you or your family’s needs. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and is a member of the National Association of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Counselors.
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen without having to over-explain yourself. My role is to help you reconnect with your strengths, deepen your relationships, and move through life with greater self-trust and ease.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in painful relationship patterns, carrying the effects of trauma, or facing a life transition that feels hard to manage, therapy can be a place to exhale. I work with adults who want support making sense of what they’re going through and finding practical ways to feel more grounded, understood, and in control. I also support clients navigating family dynamics, including experiences related to autism, adoption, and complex relationships.
I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP), and Certified Master Social Worker (CMSW) in Omaha, Nebraska, who works with adult women and provides care for patients who struggle with trauma, sexual trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and major life transitions, including reproductive and midlife changes. I enjoy working with women in various stages of life including pregnancy, post-partum, and perimenopause/menopause. I have extensive experience with trauma-informed, evidence-based psychotherapy and have been a licensed mental health provider for over 10 years.
Hi, I’m Liz, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel collaborative, personalized, and human. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and neurodivergence and I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard rather than judged or rushed.
My approach combines medication management with a holistic understanding of mental health, including nervous system regulation, lifestyle, relationships, physical health, and life experiences. Together, we focus on finding practical, sustainable strategies that help you feel more grounded, functional, and like yourself again.
I provide personalized and focused men's health that includes the psychological, biological, and spiritual domains of health and wellness. I am a dual board certified nurse practitioner in family medicine and psychiatry, so I understand and can treat the whole person. My doctoral studies focused on integrative medicine with an emphasis on men's health. I also have degrees in pastoral counseling and biblical exposition, so I am able to offer faith-forward mental health care for those who desire an integrated Christian experience.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Omaha
Searching for therapists in Omaha starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support for. People often look for therapy in Omaha for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that connect to your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling. Reading each therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their style, what they focus on, and what a first session may include.
Omaha has a steady mental health care network, with therapists across areas like Dundee, Benson, Aksarben, and Old Market. Your best fit may depend on more than location. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near home or work, or virtual appointments that fit more easily into your schedule. It also helps to review appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book. These details can make it easier to narrow your options with confidence.
Therapy in Omaha can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Omaha therapists who accept insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
