Ashley Davis
I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner and Licensed Professional Counselor, licensed in Nebraska, and have been in practice for over 9 years. I have owned my own private practice for over six years and previous to that I worked for another private practice. Prior to being a therapist I worked in the mental health field as staff in a residential Treatment center for females where I found my love of therapy. I have worked with a variety of individuals dealing with many different issues for example: anxiety, depression, relationships, self esteem, work related problems, trauma and abuse issues as well as ADHD and intellectual and physical disabilities to name a few. I don't usually work with married couples in couples therapy although I do work individually with people on couples issues. I have recently been exposed to the world traumatic brain injuries (TBI) with a close family member and the ways that this impacts an individual, their mental health as well as learning to live with a Traumatic Brain Injury. I feel that I am a warm and inviting individual that is easy to talk to with a positive personality willing to help individuals look at their issues in different ways as well as be an encourager. My treatment approach's I utilize in therapy are cognitive behavioral, as well as solution focused therapy and client focused therapy. I encourage my clients to be active participants in the treatment planning process and encourage you to be actively involved with the process. When you see positive results and complete goals on your treatment plan there is a sense of great satisfaction. If you are ready to reach out and are looking for someone who is easy to talk to and willing to help you work toward your goals I am here ready to help. I am looking foreword to meeting you and working with you.

Jennifer Hunt
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Nebraska and I have 6 years of experience. I understand that reaching out for support and asking for help can be intimidating, but I am here to listen without judgement so that we can work together to develop a plan to address your concerns and discover solutions. I enjoy helping people make changes in their lives and seeing them become successful. I approach each individual with respect and openness. I like to use a strengths based perspective in my work to help people dig a little deeper from within so they can find characteristics or skills they might not even know about themselves. I enjoy listening to the story the the individual is willing to share, that way I can meet them where they are at. The longest experience I have had for Social Worker Clinical work is within with Correctional setting. I assisted incarcerated individuals who were ready to be released into the community create discharge plans so that they would be prepared to do well and be successful once released. While I worked in Corrections I was also able to gain valuable therapeutic skills by assisting clients with Anger Management, Coping with life changes, Domestic Violence concerns, some Sex offender discharge planning issues and treatment, Women's issues, Anxiety, Trauma, and Isolation. I can interact with you for sessions via video, phone or messaging. Keep in mind that working through video conferencing would be very helpful to get to know each other. My availability would consist of evenings on the weekends for right now, but I plan to check my messages at least once a day. I have been trained in motivational interviewing, trauma informed care, and Dialectical Behavioral Treatment. I know how important it is to find the right therapist to meet your needs. I wish you the very best in your search for not only the right therapist for you but also the first step towards change in your life. I look forward to working with you!

Regina Juhl
Hello! I am a dually licensed mental health and substance abuse practitioner in the state of Nebraska. I have over 20 years of mental health counseling experience, and of those 20 years, 13 have been in the substance abuse treatment area. I have worked with individuals, group and families who have struggled with substance abuse and codependency issues. More recently I have had the opportunity to work with a senior population in an individual and group setting addressing difficulties such as depression and anxiety. In addition, my 20 years of counseling experience has afforded me opportunities to work with unique individuals. I believe each individual carries their own unique experiences, strengths, and weaknesses which require an individualized and unique approach to their counseling needs. I am happy to provide a warm and accepting atmosphere for my clients where they can feel comfortable and at ease to share their difficulties and personal progress. My holistic counseling style is transparent, direct, honest, and open. I believe everyone deserves to be listened to and given an opportunity to share their feelings, fears, hopes and dreams in a safe and nonjudgemental counseling environment. It takes a courageous person to ask for help. Reaching out for help is the first step to healing. I am eager to help you process through your life's challenges!

Michelle Miller
My name is Michelle Miller (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Nebraska. I have 20 years of experience working with survivors of primary and secondary trauma. My areas of focus include sexual violence, domestic violence, substance abuse, dual diagnoses, vicarious trauma, and professional sustainability. I have worked primarily with women and those who identify as LGBTQ+, though I welcome anyone who wishes to work with me. My therapy style is strengths-based and person-centered. I believe every person should be treated with dignity and respect, and I believe therapists should do their best to meet people where they are and to understand each individual’s unique circumstance and perspective. While I rely most heavily on trauma-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectic-behavioral, and solution-focused techniques, I am an integrative therapist and I utilize different approaches to meet clients’ unique needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
