About Me

With decades of training, Barbara is a trusted gender affirming therapist in Lincoln, NE, supporting your self-care goals.

(She/Her) I am passionate about my work because misery and suffering are optional.  Sometimes all a person needs is someone to listen to understand – not to control or fix.   

We are all recovering from something. 

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 1993.  I have experience supporting clients age 18+ with concerns such as LGBTQIA+, neurodivergence (ADHD), depression/anxiety, grief and addiction/recovery.   

Some of the therapies offered: Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Culturally Sensitive, Feminist, Grief Support Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Multicultural, Person-Centered. I have received specialized training to work specifically with the student-athlete and address relevant concerns.   

Violet, a health equity platform has verified me as an inclusive provider of personalized, identity-centered care to TGNC communities.  

I’m originally from North Carolina and have identified as a Lesbian since age 18.  When I was 21, I was in a severe car accident and had to learn to walk again.  I’ve had multiple grand adventures and have made a few dreadful mistakes between then and now.    

Outside of my professional life: I live in Lincoln, Nebraska with my wife.  I have enjoyed performing stand-up and improv. I’m teaching myself how to play the Ukulele. And to prove how twisted I am – I love to iron clothes. (Yes, really!)
