Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Lincoln, NE

Hello there. I have a diverse clinical background and am here to help. I have worked for agencies who specialize in in-home therapy with children and their parents. I have worked with children of all ages and am passionate about helping young people and their parents navigate their challenges. Navigate their difficult journeys. I use a practical solutions focused and CBT approach and don't genuinely believe that children need to be in therapy for years at a time. With the right tools and resources in place, children will do amazing things! Additionally, I have experience with complex bi-polar and schizophrenia in adults.

I hope to create a space for authentic connection, safety and trust, in which we can work together to develop strategies for reaching your goals. It takes courage and vulnerability to face life’s stresses, and I would feel grateful to walk together with you in that process. I want to empower you to find tools for improving your relationship with yourself, your family, and others around you!

I want nothing more than to collaborate with my clients in order to help them discover the problems they want and/or need to work on, what strategies would work best to improve those problems, implement strategies, problem solve, and help my clients to build a life worth living. Together, we will focus on the physical, mental, and emotional conditions of your life and I will support you in many different ways to help you grow in each of those areas.

Talking about mental health can be a sensitive topic, but my goal is to provide a safe non-judgmental space where you can explore and prioritize yourself and your mental well-being at your pace. I am dedicated to supporting individuals who have experienced trauma and helping them heal and thrive. My commitment extends to collaborating with children (2-12), adolescents (13-18), and families to cultivate positive transformations, genuine happiness, and stronger, healthier relationships. Additionally, I devote my time to Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), where I aim to improve and create secure connections and environment.

Hello! I know the process of finding a therapist can be difficult and starting counseling can be scary, but I am here to help you along the way. I am a down to earth, happy go lucky person that offers a nonjudgemental, safe and secure atmosphere that will allow you to feel listened to and understood. Together we will create therapeutic goals, that are clear, identifiable and achievable. These goals will lead you to the you that you want to be.

I care about people and I want to help. Helen Keller is quoted as saying, "The only way out is through" and I believe you don't have to do it alone. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together in a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment. We partner to increase awareness of your thoughts and feelings, identify your values and goals, and practice actions to help keep you moving forward. Together we can identify and acquire effective skills to get your life to how you want it to be. You can do this. You have more ability than you may realize.

We all need to be seen and understood, and it’s my goal to make therapy a space where that happens. I approach therapy from a place of getting that it's important to make sense of your experiences, know & feel that you are valid, & have a way to move forward feeling grounded in your authentic truth. I often work with people who have experienced trauma in relationships, a lack of emotional support in childhood, religious trauma, and marginalization. I can help with if you've been struggling to make changes you want in your life and relationships, have been overwhelmed by emotions, or don't ever know what you're even feeling.

My name is Mike Keegan, and I am licensed as an Independent Mental Health Practitioner in Nebraska. I help people process underlying trauma that leads to anxiety, depression, relational issues, and addictions. I utilize Somatic Experiencing, the Meadow's model, and other various trauma-informed approaches. If you are struggling with anxiety, sadness, shame, guilt, or feeling stuck in a rut, then I could be the right person to help you. I also have extensive experience working with veterans, first responders, and their family members.

I feel every individual is unique; therefore every therapeutic relationship is unique. For therapy to be successful it is essential that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. I respect the difficulty of undertaking the therapeutic journey, and therefore consider myself challenging yet empathetic. I consider myself and active therapist, yet the session is not about me...this is your time. I work with adolescents and adults on an individual basis. I also work with couples, families and groups.

Every person experiences a need for meaningful connection with others, and a need for wholeness within our interior world. Sometimes those needs feel beyond our reach. I believe that therapy can help in those times when you feel as though you are merely surviving, rather than thriving in life.

Whether we're working with young, seasoned, or somewhere in between, the ideal clients are the ones with moxie. Their issue or presenting need is immaterial as we believe humans desire safety and acceptance. The challenge for therapists is to determine if that safety and acceptance is defined internally or externally. Collaboratively, we seek to assist you in identifying your goals and through empowerment, determine the best approach to achieve success.

I truly believe in the effectiveness of counseling when the client and counselor can work together to identify concerns and generate effective and realistic solutions. My approach to counseling stems from the belief that you are the expert on your own life and I will work with you to find insight and create meaningful solutions that will impact the quality of your life.
