About Coleen
Coleen Lachowitzer, LIMHP, helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, bipolar disorder, depression, and life changes. She works with people who are trying to regain control and find clearer ways to cope. Coleen speaks plain language and focuses on practical steps someone can use between sessions.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at strong feelings and how they shape relationships and choices. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take actions that match their values.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around what the person needs in the moment rather than a fixed formula. Coleen treats issues such as body image, eating and food-related problems, and addiction with a calm, nonjudgmental approach. She helps people sort through control and dependency concerns, and supports those dealing with caregiver stress, blended family tensions, or separation.
Practical coping skills are combined with attention to emotions behind the behavior. With six years of clinical experience in Nebraska, Coleen emphasizes collaboration. She listens, offers tools, and helps set small, doable goals.
Many people find this combination useful when managing mood shifts, relapse triggers, or stressful life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. The focus is on steady progress and finding strategies that fit each person's daily life.

Online support
Approaches that guide online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong emotions and how those feelings influence choices and relationships. It can be useful for understanding patterns that keep someone stuck and for creating new ways to respond. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that match their values; it often includes simple exercises to clarify what matters and to build steady behavior change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and patterns today, and can help people rewrite those patterns in everyday interactions.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made or new issues come up, and the client plays an active role in shaping the plan.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when discussing emotional material. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to check in between sessions and to get brief support or homework prompts. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
