Psychiatric Services
Behaven Kids now offers comprehensive psychiatric services, including psychiatric evaluations, medication management and psychotherapy provided by our board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Macy Kasperbauer. These services are currently available at our Omaha and Elkhorn locations.

Treatment options may include:
- Medication Management
Implementing psychiatric medication may benefit certain individuals by alleviating physiological and psychological symptoms that are interfering with day to day functioning. All medications are prescribed by our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and will be prescribed electronically for the convenience of each family.

- Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is provided by our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at each appointment to make sure each individual is processing their feelings and emotions effectively and building the skills they need to achieve their overall mental health goals.

- Coordinating Care
Our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner provides a comprehensive approach and will coordinate with any outside referral sources and/or other treatment providers, as requested by the caretaker, to ensure overall progress of the individual is maintained and to ensure clinical recommendations are implemented outside of regularly scheduled appointments. Outside referral sources may include, but are not limited to: schools, therapists, primary care physicians, hospitals, case workers, daycares, etc.

- GeneSight Testing
When a person is experiencing mental health symptoms, they want the best possible treatment options to alleviate their symptoms in a timely manner. Unfortunately, alleviation of symptoms and optimal benefits of psychiatric medication can be a lengthy process and often requires several attempts at finding the right dose and right medication for each person. To help eliminate the trial and error process, Macy Kasperbauer, PMHNP-BC offers Genesight testing to aid in appropriate medication options for each individual patient. Genesight testing is precision medicine for mental health diagnoses that assesses specific genetic markers to determine which medications are genetically compatible to the patient. It is the leading and most sophisticated psychiatric testing on the market, that is designed with patient ease and satisfaction at the forefront. If you would like further information on Genesight testing, please click on the designated tab in the menu above and/or schedule your psychiatric evaluation today.
