Michaella Arnold

Michaella is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) in the State of Nebraska. She graduated from the University of Nebraska at Kearney with a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Michaella has a passion for supporting people in developing positive coping skills to regulate emotions, address mental health issues, and helping to navigate an empowering life. She does this by helping clients process their emotions and reactions that happen in their daily lives and then assists clients with finding positive and healthier ways to cope with life’s struggles. She also uses skills such as reflecting on past achievements and discovering positive ways to meet client’s goals.

Michaella primarily works with children and adults experiencing a variety of mental health concerns. She utilizes a range of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, to support each client’s individual needs and goals.

Michaella has also completed Phase 1 training in Brainspotting, an approach that uses eye position to help access and process difficult emotions and experiences. Brainspotting is based on the idea that where we look can influence how we feel, and it may help clients work through trauma, intense emotions, or thoughts and feelings that seem difficult to move past. It can also be used to revisit positive memories and experiences. Michaella incorporates Brainspotting into sessions when appropriate to help clients explore their emotions, process challenging experiences, and work toward greater emotional well-being.
