About Becky
Becky Presthus is a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) in Nebraska with 25 years of experience helping adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She works with people navigating life changes, relationship strain, and the pressures that often come in early adulthood and beyond. Becky uses clear, practical talk to help clients figure out what’s getting in the way and what can change next.
Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to tackle immediate problems and build new patterns. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing small changes, and setting concrete goals. Becky helps people break worries into manageable steps and track progress between meetings.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice in Nebraska where she has seen many presentations connected to abandonment, attachment issues, adoption and foster care histories, caregiver stress, body image, and recovery from domestic violence. This experience shapes how she works with complex emotional responses and disruption from past events.
In sessions she tends to be direct and practical, offering exercises, reframes, and short-term experiments clients can use right away. She supports people who feel stuck after big transitions such as leaving home, changing jobs, or ending relationships.

How her approaches translate to online work
Becky uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy in clear, practical ways. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and then tests small changes to shift how someone feels and acts. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and unwanted patterns that come up in daily life.Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting short-term goals and identifying strengths the client already has. Sessions often concentrate on what will be different after a few weeks and on small experiments to move toward those changes. This approach can help when you want concrete next steps rather than long explorations.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. Becky will help clients choose approaches based on their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That means deciding collaboratively whether to focus on thought work, behavior changes, or goal-driven experiments in upcoming sessions.
