Krisha Uden

Krisha Uden is a seasoned mental health therapist practicing in Nebraska with 27 years of experience. She brings a Christian counseling perspective to her work and has served clients in private practice for much of her career, alongside roles at a mental health center and in group programs addressing domestic violence, grief for military families, and parenting education.

Krisha listens with empathy and seeks to understand each person’s circumstances, concerns, and coping patterns. She emphasizes a strengths-based approach, helping people identify resources they already use and collaborating with them to create practical treatment plans and achievable goals. Comfort, encouragement, and the search for meaning and purpose are central to her therapeutic style.

She holds active mental health licenses in both Nebraska and Iowa, and has maintained a Nebraska license since 1999, enabling her to provide counseling in person and via telehealth. Krisha is also affiliated with the American Association of Christian Counselors, where she continues professional development from a Christian perspective. She has provided services on an online counseling platform for the past five years in addition to her longstanding in-person practice.

On the personal side, Krisha and her husband—who works as a farmer and rancher—have been married 17 years and are raising five children ranging in age from 16 to 8. In December 2022 she was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer and, following treatment, is considered a survivor with an optimistic prognosis. Krisha participates actively at Christ Lutheran Church and enjoys crafts, outdoor adventures, sports, and other hobbies when time allows.

Krisha recognizes that choosing to pursue change takes courage. She aims to walk alongside people at whatever stage they are in their journey, offering practical help and compassionate support as they move toward a more purposeful life.
