We want you to get the care you deserve
Our core values
Central Nebraska Mental Health is a small business designed to facilitate access to mental health care for rural Nebraskans. Our provider is a local clinician who was born and raised in Nebraska and understands the struggles of Midwestern residents.
Approach to therapy
Everyone deserves to build their own life worth living. Clinicians serve clients best when individuals are supported authentically and a human’s natural tendency toward growth can be explored without judgment.
