Nebraska Mental Health Centers

Internship Sites

Our primary site in Lincoln, NE provides services for a population center of 27,700. A cooperative and collaborative working relationship with NMHC’s part time psychiatric service provider enriches the internship training experience.

Satellite clinics are located in the communities of Wahoo and Beatrice, Nebraska. Within each of the locations come their own socioeconomic, cultural, and community resource considerations for treatment services. In addition to the office settings, clinicians also provide assessment, diagnosis and treatment within long-term care and assisted living facilities. Additionally, Interns have the opportunity to provide services on-site in a public school setting, such as behavioral health interventions in the classroom in order to address the needs of the interdisciplinary educational teams. We are also participating in a grant with Beatrice Public Schools to provide Parent-Child Interaction Training (PCIT). Interns also have the opportunity to provide supervised leadership for group therapy focusing on adults within the probation system with anger and impulse control challenges, as well as a Domestic Violence group for male batterers that utilizes the Duluth Model of power and control.

Interns work and receive training at the main office 3 days a week, and are scheduled to work 1 day a week at each of the satellite offices, or on occasion, an alternate service location. All office locations are handicap accessible. Interns each have an individual office at the main office, with computer, phone etc. A large group room for training purposes and groups or family therapy, and testing room is also available. Intervention manuals, assessment materials, other training materials, and access to the DSM 5 and ICD-10 are also provided. Each intern has use of an individual office in the satellite offices, with laptop computers available for check out. Additionally, each intern has access to administrative and IT support as well as client scheduling support. Clinic administration and support services, which is situated at the main office, provides support for scheduling, medical records, client insurance and payments, and other needs.
