Specialty: Behavioral Health

Michelle Callahan, LMHP, MA

Behavioral Health

Michelle Callahan, LMHP, is a mental health therapist with more than 25 years of experience. She was born and raised in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where snow skiing is a popular community sport. Michelle earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln and her graduate degree from the University of Nebraska Omaha. She also completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training, specializing in meditation, yin yoga, deep relaxation, and mindfulness.

Michelle knew from a young age that she wanted to be a therapist. As a teenager, she spent hours on the phone listening to friends talk about family issues, feelings, and fears. Her father was a pastor and hospital chaplain who visited the sick and dying, offering comfort and support to families and patients. Serving others was always part of her life, and helping people still brings her joy and purpose.

Michelle’s mantra is “People first, process second.” She is patient, purposeful, and practical. She believes that compassionate care, combined with sound clinical methods, leads to healing and transformation. Whole Person Healthcare means recognizing that the body, mind, and spirit are connected and cannot be treated separately. Like an egg, a person has many distinct parts all in one. Michelle has specialized experience in brain injury rehabilitation, including seven years of cognitive therapy with individuals, couples, and families. She has worked on social skills, memory loss, executive function, and community integration with people who have spinal cord injuries, acute brain injuries, spina bifida, cerebral palsy, stroke, and other brain injuries. Her advice: you are worthy of self-care. If you don’t take care of yourself, no one else will. Self-care is crucial for mental, physical, and emotional healing. Michelle is passionate about empowering patients with positive affirmations and building confidence and self-belief. She lives by the belief that “We Rise by Lifting Others.”

Michelle joined think because she believes in treating every part of a person, not just one aspect. The model’s focus on integrated, whole-person care matches her approach of connecting body, mind, and spirit, instead of treating them separately.

Patients often tell Michelle that she has a calming voice and demeanor, and that they feel cared for, validated, and heard. One experience that stands out to her is the connection she has built with patients who have limited verbal skills but are able to trust and grow through touch and time. Words are not always needed for healing; sometimes, the steady presence of a caregiver can make a big difference.

Michelle spends time outside whenever she can. She enjoys walking in nature, soaking up the sun, and playing with her dog, Bear. If time, money, and ability were unlimited, she would travel around the world to as many places as possible. She is fascinated by the culture and customs of distant places.

Ted Dondlinger, LMHP

Behavioral Health

Ted L. Dondlinger, LMHP, is a licensed mental health practitioner who focuses on behavioral health for youth, adolescents, couples, and those seeking Christian counseling. He holds a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education from Doane College (now Doane University), a Master’s in Educational Administration from Concordia University, and a Master’s in School Counseling from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Ted is also a member of the American Counseling Association and the American School Counselors Association.

Ted has been coaching and teaching since 1991. He started by coaching a youth basketball team while still in high school. Over the years, he taught and coached, mainly basketball, in places like Davenport, Wilcox, Prague, Geneva, and Omaha, even while farming for 12 years. Six years ago, he shifted from coaching to counseling after noticing how much the two fields have in common. He spent three years at Arbor Family Counseling with a provisional license, then the past year running his own practice. Ted often met clients in places where they felt comfortable, like playing catch at the park, walking trails, biking, or playing golf, since many people find it easier to talk side by side than face to face. Now, he looks forward to working in a more traditional setting with regular hours and caseloads at think.

Ted compares finding the right therapist to choosing the right school or college. It takes time to find the right fit, but when you do, it feels invaluable. He believes that growth comes from struggle. Just as lifting heavier weights builds physical strength, mental strength develops when people step out of their comfort zones and face challenges. Whole Person Healthcare is still new to him, and he is eager to learn how think’s approach is different while helping clients work through change.

Ted will be able to retire from the school system in two years and wants to have a clear plan for his next steps. He cannot see himself leaving the work of helping young people and families. He hopes think will help him move smoothly from working in schools to serving the wider community. He likes the idea of a model that offers real support instead of just using labels.

Clients say Ted meets them where they are and supports them as they grow. He remembers one high school student who was a talented athlete but struggled with behavior issues that kept her off the court. By graduation, she had become the kind of teammate others wanted by their side, and now she is going to a university on the West Coast. At her graduation party, Ted told her mother how much he enjoyed writing her letter of recommendation because of the progress she made. Watching people grow like that is what Ted enjoys most about his work.

Ted is married to Kara, and they have three boys. He works out regularly with F3, a free workout group in Omaha, and this year he has been training for a triathlon and the Market to Market Race while trying to kick his sugar habit. He also likes woodworking projects. If he had unlimited time, money, and ability, he would drive around the borders of the United States on regular highways, traveling about four hours a day, camping each night, and exploring different towns and their food. The whole trip would take about 88 days and might become a solo ‘Ted Adventure.’

Miles Jordan, MSW

Behavioral Health

Miles Jordan, MSW, CSW, is a certified social worker who specializes in behavioral health. He grew up in Omaha and earned his BA from Creighton University and his MSW from the University of Nebraska Omaha. Some of his favorite memories from childhood are the free Friday night concerts at Rockbrook during the summer.

Miles recently started working in healthcare after spending several years in community-based roles focused on helping people meet basic needs and access mental health services, especially for youth. When he was in high school, he was in a car accident and received excellent care from nurses, doctors, technicians, support staff, and occupational therapists. That experience gave him a deep respect for everyone on a healthcare team. He looks forward to bringing his community experience into a place where social factors can be addressed along with medical care.

To Miles, Whole Person Healthcare means caring for the whole person by considering all parts of someone’s life and how they affect health and wellbeing. Things like safe housing, healthy food, transportation, and social support are closely tied to health outcomes, and mental health is always an important part of overall health. His advice for patients: if something is making it hard to care for your health, even if it does not seem ‘medical,’ it is okay to bring it up and ask about resources.

Miles chose this approach because it allows social, emotional, and practical needs to be addressed in one place. He believes patients should not have to figure out complicated systems by themselves. By working as a team, everyone can focus on getting healthier together. This is the kind of work he wants to do.

Patients often describe Miles as reliable, easy to talk to, patient, and kind. These are the values he brings to every interaction. He wants people to feel comfortable sharing any practical or emotional challenges that affect their care.

When he is not at work, Miles likes to spend time outdoors, be with friends and family, volunteer in the community, and try new activities. If he could go anywhere, he would love to travel the world, especially to see the volcanoes, waterfalls, and northern lights in Iceland.

Blake Smart, APRN, PMHNP-BC

Behavioral Health

Accepting New Patients

Blake Smart, APRN, PMHNP-BC, is a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. He grew up in Arkansas and earned his BSN from Marian University before completing his master’s at Maryville University. Blake has worked with patients across all areas of psychiatric care.

Blake began his nursing career when his family asked him to help care for his grandmother during her Alzheimer’s illness. That difficult but meaningful experience inspired him to become a nurse. He spent seven years in acute care, working in medical-surgical, dialysis, and inpatient psychiatry. Seeing the experiences of friends and family showed him how important accessible psychiatric care is. While medication can help, Blake also believes that physical and spiritual well-being are important for mental health.

Psychiatry looks at the whole person, bringing together physical, mental, social, and spiritual aspects. Whole Person Healthcare means that all these areas—physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, relationships, and lifestyle—are connected and affect each other. If one area is ignored, the others can suffer. Blake often tells patients that symptoms do not define them. Symptoms come and go, like changes in the weather. Instead of saying, “I am an anxious person,” he suggests saying, “I am facing a temporary struggle; this too will pass.” His goal is to help people live healthy, balanced lives.

“Psychiatry is one area of healthcare that is truly holistic; it combines the physical, biopsychosocial, and spiritual aspects of a person. Being a psychiatric provider is a truly unique opportunity to promote and improve complete person care.” Blake Smart

Blake joined think because the organization believes in treating health as a whole. This allows him to work closely with other specialists and improve care together, rather than treating mental health on its own.

He looks forward to supporting patients as they work toward complete well-being. One story that stands out to him is Metallica’s documentary Some Kind of Monster, which showed that even “invincible,” larger-than-life people face everyday struggles like fame, anger, depression, and addiction, and use long-term psychotherapy. It reminded him that everyone needs care sometimes, and that working honestly on mental health shows strength, not weakness.

Blake enjoys running, hiking, biking, and playing different stringed instruments. He has been a musician for over 20 years. He has good memories of living near the Ozarks in Arkansas, where he spent time hiking, biking, and rock climbing. He still hopes to visit two more continents: Australia and Antarctica.

Russell Rosenquist, LICSW, is a social work counselor passionate about helping people overcome mental health challenges and build fulfilling lives. He is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from the University of Nebraska Omaha and has additional degrees in Public Administration and Business Administration.

Born and raised on a farm near Shickley, Nebraska, he brings a grounded perspective to his work, shaped by fond memories of farm life, swimming in the pond, and riding motorcycles. With over 30 years of counseling and mental health experience, Russell earned his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Nebraska Lincoln, followed by a Master of Social Work and Master of Public Administration from the University of Nebraska Omaha, and a Master of Business Administration from Bellevue University.

He realized his interest in mental health counseling during his undergraduate studies at UNL, where he transferred to UNO’s School of Social Work.

To Russell, Whole Person Healthcare means addressing both physical and emotional wellness, and he’s motivated by a sincere desire to make a difference—believing patients would describe him as caring and committed. His pearl of wisdom? “You are not alone in your struggles.”

Married for 33 years with two adult children, Russell finds joy outside work as an amateur radio operator (licensed since 1980), connecting with people worldwide from home. He’s inspired by stories of resilience, like helping an alcoholic overcome addiction, depression, and suicidal thoughts to thrive in family and business. If time and resources were no limit, he’d visit Australia, but for now, he’s focused on empowering patients at think to find satisfaction and strength.

Holly Eckhart, APRN-CNM, MSN, PMHNP-BC

Behavioral Health and Psychiatry

Holly Eckhart, MSN, APRN-CNM, PMHNP-BC, is a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who focuses on Behavioral Health at Think Whole Person Healthcare. She grew up in the Philadelphia suburbs, spending her childhood exploring American history on trips to New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, DC, and enjoying time at the Jersey Shore. Holly received her Master of Science in Nurse-Midwifery and a post-Master’s Certificate as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Frontier Nursing University.

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in International Studies, Holly started a Master’s program in Public Health focused on Global Health. She soon realized she wanted a more direct, hands-on role in caring for people, not just planning and policy work. This inspired her to become a nurse, first as a Certified Nurse-Midwife and later as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Today, she provides general psychiatric care for children, men, and women, with special interests in women’s health, perinatal mental health, and supporting vulnerable populations.

For Holly, Whole Person Healthcare means caring for each person as a whole, considering their life circumstances and what she calls “the rest of the story.” She shares, “Whole Person Healthcare means everything to me! Integrated care provides the best chance for achieving optimal health.” She looks at barriers to care, available resources, support systems, lifestyle, and social factors when working with patients. Her approach is based on empathy and empowerment. She works as a teammate with her patients, helps them see they deserve good health and healing, and believes that symptom remission is possible. Holly focuses on practical, personalized care that fits each person’s real life and brings deep compassion, global perspective, and a genuine commitment to whole-person healing to every patient she serves.

Holly chose think because its integrated, team-based approach matches the vision she developed during her years in global health. She is inspired by how think brings different specialties together, offers many services in one place, and provides ongoing follow-up care. This is something she hoped for while running mobile clinics in places with limited resources. Holly values being part of a team that can meet all of a patient’s needs, instead of offering care that feels disconnected.

Patients say Holly is empathetic, kind, and a great listener who helps them feel heard and supported. She works to empower each person to see their own potential for healing and reminds them they deserve good health, love, kindness, and a better quality of life. Her collaborative, patient-centered approach helps people feel like true partners in their journey to wellness.

Outside of work, Holly enjoys reading and traveling, especially to places with mountains or beaches. She has spent a lot of time in Haiti, where she helped set up eye and primary care clinics and still returns often to visit friends and volunteer. Holly cares deeply about global service and building connections across cultures. If she could go anywhere, she would love to visit Ireland, Scotland, Italy, and Indonesia.

Jameson Bock, LIMHP

Behavioral Health

An Omaha native, Jameson Bock is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC). His education is extensive and local, with studies at Creighton Prep, Metro Community College, Bellevue University, the University of Nebraska at Omaha, and the University of Nebraska at Kearney, where he was part of the inaugural cohort for its fully remote telemental health practicum.

Jameson’s interest in the mental health field stems from his experience of the profound impact of human connection during his difficult life transitions. He realized he wanted to provide that same support for others, especially during times that feel unpredictable and overwhelming. This personal journey shaped his understanding of how layered a person’s pain can be and “how deeply it matters to be seen and supported.”

His approach to therapy is client-centered and diverse, drawing on evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Jameson’s goal is to create a space where people feel they don’t have to perform; they can just be human. He believes, “Healing doesn’t mean erasing the past, but it means making peace with your story and choosing how you carry it forward.” His clinical interests include helping individuals and couples navigate relational stress, identity shifts, parenthood, and career burnout, with a special focus on supporting first responders.

For Jameson, Whole Person Healthcare means “honoring someone’s full humanity—their body, mind, emotions, and relationships—and caring for all of it with respect.” This philosophy aligns with his reason for joining Think, where he values the focus on integrated care, community connection, and collaborative healing.

Outside of his work, Jameson is a dad to five children. He enjoys spending as much time as possible outdoors, bicycling, playing pickleball, and taking on renovation projects at his mid-century home.

Jodi Ramold, LCSW, LIMHP, MSW

Behavioral Health

Jodi Ramold, MSW, LCSW, LIMHP, is a Mental Health Therapist in Behavioral Health Services at think. Originally from St. Joseph, Missouri, Jodi has called Omaha, Nebraska, home for the past 25 years. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from Central Missouri State University in 1997 and her Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Kansas in 2001. With over 25 years of experience in hospital case management and clinical therapy, Jodi specializes in supporting individuals, couples, and groups dealing with grief, loss, depression, anxiety, family dynamics, life adjustments, and chronic mental health conditions.

Jodi’s journey into healthcare began at age 22, initially pursuing a degree to become an English teacher before an internship at a local hospital shifted her focus. Witnessing the spectrum of emotions in healthcare, from joy to profound grief, and her own experience with a serious illness inspired her to devote her career to helping others navigate the physical, mental, and emotional challenges of chronic illness and life’s difficulties, encouraging resilience and improved quality of life.

To Jodi, Whole Person Healthcare means providing accessible, comprehensive care that addresses mental health as a critical component of overall well-being, recognizing that mental stability is foundational to a fulfilling life. She approaches therapy with genuineness and a non-judgmental attitude, emphasizing that seeking mental health support is normal and essential, and works to enhance clients’ coping skills to manage stress, low self-esteem, and life’s uncertainties, helping them thrive despite challenges.

Jodi joined think to be part of a multidisciplinary team that makes healthcare affordable and accessible, aligning with her belief that mental health services should be readily available to all. Think‘s approach, which simplifies access to diverse services, allows her to support patients holistically and contribute to their healthcare journey as they overcome obstacles and realize their potential.

Her patients would describe her as genuine, caring, and an attentive listener who creates a safe, non-judgmental space for addressing their concerns. Her ability to connect deeply with clients, drawing from her extensive experience and personal understanding of illness, helps them feel supported in managing chronic conditions, grief, or complex family dynamics, empowering them to rewrite their stories with confidence.

Outside of her practice, Jodi cherishes spending time with her 19-year-old son, her family, and walking her dog, while also indulging her love for decorating when time allows. If time, money, and ability were no barriers, she dreams of traveling to sunny beach destinations to relax and soak in the warmth of coastal landscapes.

Dawn Tostenson, LIMHP

Behavioral Health

Dawn Tostenson is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner who brings warmth and experience to her work. With more than seven years of clinical experience, she specializes in trauma recovery, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Her sessions are a space for healing, reflection, and growth.

Dawn earned dual master’s degrees in Clinical Counseling and Human Services from Bellevue University. Born and raised in Omaha, she has spent her career supporting diverse populations, drawing from a broad foundation of trauma-informed care. She uses a wide range of evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotional freedom techniques (EFT), Brainspotting, and mindfulness.

Much of Dawn’s perspective is shaped by her early work with survivors of domestic violence and individuals experiencing homelessness. These experiences taught her the importance of helping people feel safe, seen, and heard, especially when they’ve spent years simply surviving. One story that continues to stand out is a young adult who arrived in her care feeling hopeless after a traumatic event. Over time, she witnessed that person slowly rebuild their sense of self, grow in confidence, and reclaim their voice.

Dawn joined think because she wanted to be part of a healthcare model that truly puts people first. She was drawn to think’s belief in empathy, innovation, and treating the whole person, not just a diagnosis. For her, being part of this team is about more than a job. It’s about contributing to a mission that challenges old systems and builds something better for patients and providers alike.

Outside of work, Dawn enjoys visiting art museums, attending concerts, and exploring new places. She also loves quiet mornings with coffee and deep conversations with friends and family.
