Who We Are: At the Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS), we believe in the power of purpose. Our mission — Helping people live better lives — drives everything we do. Every role in our organization is vital, and your work as a Psychologist will have a real, lasting impact on the lives of others.

About the Opportunity: We’re seeking a dedicated Psychologist to join our team at the Lincoln Regional Center (LRC), a 250-bed, Joint Commission-accredited state psychiatric hospital. As part of our Behavioral Health Division, you’ll provide expert mental health care to adults living with severe mental illness in a structured, recovery-focused setting.

This is more than a job — it’s a calling to help people heal, grow, and reclaim their independence.

What You’ll Do As a Psychologist at LRC, you will:

  • Conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations (cognitive, personality, and risk assessments).
  • Develop and lead individualized treatment plans for patients.
  • Provide both individual and group therapy sessions.
  • Serve as a key clinical voice on interdisciplinary treatment teams.
  • Offer expert consultation on behavioral strategies and therapeutic approaches.
  • Deliver training to staff on psychological practices and risk management.
  • Contribute to policy improvements and program development.
  • Provide expert testimony at mental health board hearings.

What We’re Looking For

Requirements / Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications:

Psychologist/Licensed: Doctorate in Psychology. Licensed in Nebraska.

Psychologist/Provisionally Licensed: Doctorate degree in Psychology. Eligible for a provisional psychology license.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • One year of post-doctorate experience.
  • Experience working with patients with severe and persistent mental illness.

Key Skills for Success:

  • Expertise in psychological assessment and treatment.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills
  • Passion for trauma-informed care and recovery-oriented services.

Compensation is commensurate with experience for fully licensed Psychologists. Provisionally licensed individuals are also encouraged to apply and will be considered.

Why DHHS? Working at LRC means joining a mission-driven team that values compassion, innovation, and safety. We offer a supportive environment where your voice matters and your clinical skills make a real difference. If you’re ready to make an impact while growing your career in public mental health, we want to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
