Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, or health challenges start to take over. You may feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure how to move forward, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. I work with adults and older adults who are navigating emotional stress, life transitions, and complex medical conditions. Together, we’ll untangle what’s weighing on you, build practical tools, and help you feel more grounded, in control, and hopeful again.

Therapist

I’m so glad you’ve taken this step to seek support for whatever you're facing right now. Reaching out for help takes courage, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside people during some of life’s most difficult and meaningful moments.

My name is Karla Burgess, and I am a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) in the state of Nebraska. For the past 22 years, I have worked in both hospital and private practice settings, serving individuals and families in a rural community. Being one of the only mental health providers in my area has allowed me to gain experience working with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, parenting struggles, relationship issues, grief, and life transitions.

In addition to my clinical work, my experience as a school counselor has given me extensive support for children, teens, and adults from many different backgrounds and life stages. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and valued.

Clients often describe me as kind, compassionate, caring, supportive, and empathetic. I believe that meaningful connection is at the heart of effective counseling, and I deeply respect the trust clients place in me by allowing me to be part of their journey.

I look forward to getting to know you and helping you work through the challenges that may be standing in the way of your growth, happiness, and well-being.

Therapist

Virtual • Grand Island, NE


Many of the clients I work with come to me feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or weighed down by experiences they’ve carried for far too long. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship patterns rooted in early attachment wounds, or the lingering impact of trauma. Others are navigating life transitions, loss, or changes in identity that leave them uncertain about their next steps. At the core, most are seeking relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of themselves. They want to feel more regulated, more confident, and more capable of moving through daily life without being held back by old patterns or emotional pain.
