Louped In: Abbie Rowley

Welcome back to Louped In—your inside look at the people, programs, and stories that make Columbus, Nebraska a connected and thriving community. Hosted by Matt Lindberg, Public Communications Manager, and Betsy Eckhardt, Parks and Recreation Director, each episode brings you thoughtful conversations with the individuals shaping our city.

This week, we sit down with Abbie Rowley, an independent Mental Health Therapist and Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor working right here in Columbus. Abbie shares her important work with the local court system, helping provide rehabilitation options and support for adults navigating the justice system. We also dive into the topic of “summer blues” in kids—how the lack of routine during summer break can impact young people’s mental health, and what parents can do to help.

It’s a meaningful conversation you won’t want to miss. Tune in and stay Louped In—because mental wellness is community wellness.
