The Women's Therapy and Learning Center (WTLC) was developed as a result of women's direct requests for psychotherapeutic services which serves the Omaha metro area since 1988. * Recognize and attend to their specific psycho-social needs, * Acknowledge their unique experiences of themselves, and their relationships, * Support their struggles to reach their individual emotional, relational, creative, and spiritual potential. Established in 1988, the Women's Therapy and Learning Center provides programs and services for the public and for professionals covering a variety of issues that individuals, both women and men, face today. Our theoretical orientation is feminist and psychodynamic, borrowing from and integrating Jungian psychology, Self-In-Relation Theory, and British Object Relations. At the Women's Therapy and Learning Center, our definition of empowering women embraces the process of developing skills and behaviors that enhance self-nurturance, via connectedness to one's body, mind and spirit, to others, as well as to nature and the earth. We recognize that relationships are an integral part of people's lives. Experiencing difficulties in relationships can leave women -and men- with feelings of confusion, anger, hurt, loss, inadequacy, guilt, and shame. As such, relationship issues are given ongoing attention. Our programs are designed to help individuals understand and express themselves within the context of relationships while creating meaningful lives. Women and men therapists and volunteers who have acquired specialized training in the area of gender issues provide all services at the Women's Therapy and Learning Center.
