Prof. Robert Neve, LPC, LIMHP

Prof. Robert Neve brings 22 years of professional counseling experience and a deep personal commitment to helping others navigate addiction, mood challenges, relationship struggles, and major life transitions. He combines lived experience with clinical practice - including eight years in AA and NA and long-term recovery since February 15, 1993 - to offer practical insight for clients facing substance use, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and related concerns. He is a LIMHP, which stands for Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner, and he grounds his work in respect, sensitivity, and sustained encouragement.

He previously directed a mental health and substance abuse treatment center in Omaha's Dundee neighborhood and draws on that operational and clinical background when supporting clients through recovery, relapse prevention, and rebuilding goals. He and his spouse, who is also a therapist, prioritize relational health and collaboration, and his approach reflects those values. He speaks from experience about building purpose, managing finances and business growth, nurturing faith, and improving relationships.

Clients can expect a nonjudgmental, motivational style that introduces new resources and decision-making tools. He incorporates practices from Motivational Interviewing and Neuro-Linguistic Programming alongside other evidence-informed methods to help people set achievable goals and sustain change. He also shares personal health accomplishments, such as losing 85 pounds with Weight Watchers, as examples of long-term behavior change and resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Growth and Recovery

Prof. Robert Neve integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into his online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action toward goals - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard so that clients feel heard and supported while exploring relationship, identity, and self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress and to build practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Prof. Neve collaborates with each client to identify what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. He works with clients to adjust methods over time and combines elements of different approaches when that best supports progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity while traveling or living abroad, and receive timely support between appointments from licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor care to each client’s circumstances.
