Mandy Blankenship

I'm Mandy Blankenship, founder of New Path Nebraska and a licensed independent mental health therapist with over 20 years of experience in the field. I graduated with a Master's degree in Counseling from Doane College in 2007. However, my journey as a therapist began when I was just 10 years old, after a poignant encounter with a child who told me that his therapist was the 'only person who knows how to listen.' That moment sparked a passion in me, and I've been dedicated to helping others ever since.

With a passion for helping individuals and families, I have always worked with teens and their families on issues involving trauma, anger, anxiety, substance use, oppositional defiance, self-esteem, grief, depression, and goal setting. As a seasoned professional, I have had the privilege of working as a school-based therapist for 13 years before taking the next step in my career.

I am thrilled to announce the launch of my own practice, New Path Counseling, which is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective care to individuals and families in the greater Gretna area. My approach to therapy is grounded in cognitive-behavioral principles, combined with elements of reality and existentialism. I am excited to bring my expertise and dedication to creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment to help individuals heal and grow.
