Take the First Step Toward Recovery

OWCP‑Focused Mental Health Services in Nebraska

Federal Mental Health is enrolled with the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) to provide virtual mental health counseling/psychotherapy services to injured federal workers. Fedmh+1

For federal employees living in Nebraska, we offer:

1. Individual Counseling & Psychotherapy (Virtual)

One‑on‑one video sessions with a licensed therapist focusing on mental health conditions related to your workplace injury or traumatic exposure, including:

●Trauma reactions after a critical incident
●Anxiety around returning to duty or performing certain tasks
●Depression and emotional changes tied to pain, disability, or life disruption

Our clinicians draw from evidence‑based approaches such as CBT, CPT, and other trauma‑informed therapies, tailored to the unique needs of injured federal workers. Psychology Today+1

When your OWCP claim is accepted and treatment is authorized, therapy for your accepted injury‑related mental health condition is typically covered by federal workers’ compensation, often with no out‑of‑pocket costs. Psychology Today+2DOL+2

2. Clinical Evaluations

We provide mental health evaluations that are directly connected to your work injury or traumatic event, which may help support your OWCP documentation when appropriate. This can include:

●Diagnostic assessments related to your injury or trauma
●Treatment plans coordinated with your medical providers
●Periodic clinical updates summarizing your progress in therapy

3. Case Work & Coordination

Federal workers’ comp cases have a lot of moving parts. Our team can:

●Provide appropriate clinical documentation related to your mental health diagnosis and treatment
●Coordinate, when needed, with your medical team about your psychological care
●Help you understand how mental health treatment fits into the Federal Employees’ Compensation Act (FECA) and OWCP process DOL+2U.S. Department of the Interior+2

You focus on healing; we help with the mental‑health‑related details.

What You May Be Experiencing After a Federal Workplace Injury

Injured federal workers often describe:
- ●Intrusive memories or nightmares about the incident
- ●Feeling constantly on edge or “keyed up”
- ●Avoiding tasks, places, or people that remind them of what happened
- ●Irritability, anger, or emotional numbness
- ●Difficulty concentrating or staying organized
- ●Strain in family relationships as pain and limitations change daily life
- ●Fear about returning to work—or fear that you’ll never return
Under FECA and OWCP, mental health conditions can be compensable injuries when they arise out of and in the course of federal employment, just like physical injuries, if they are properly documented and linked to work factors. Aumiller Lomax Law+2Sarphie Law+2
With the right support, these symptoms can improve, and it becomes easier to move forward with your life and career.
- ●Postal and mail processing facilities
- ●Transportation and aviation security roles
- ●Federal hospitals and healthcare systems
- ●Federal correctional institutions and detention facilities
- ●Administrative, logistics, and field-based federal positions
- ●Civilian employees supporting federal and defense facilities

2. Brief Intake & OWCP Details

We gather key information about your federal role, your injury or event, and your OWCP claim status so we can match you with an appropriate clinician.

3. Comprehensive Virtual Intake Session

In your first appointment, your therapist will ask about:

●What happened at work

Together, you’ll create a treatment plan that fits your needs, schedule, and recovery goals.

4. Ongoing Counseling Sessions (Telehealth)

You’ll meet regularly by secure video—no long drives across Nebraska, no waiting rooms. Sessions may focus on symptom relief, processing trauma, coping with pain‑related distress, and preparing emotionally for return‑to‑work, modified duties, or new plans.

As treatment continues, we can provide clinical documentation related to your diagnosis and progress when requested as part of your workers’ compensation file.
