About Patrick
Dr. Patrick Keohane is a clinical psychologist based in South Dakota with 27 years of experience helping adults manage common and complex problems. He draws on a mix of practical strategies and a warm, human approach to support people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, anger, addictions, and other concerns.
He uses a combination of cognitive behavioral ideas and client-centered methods to shape each session. That means work together to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits, and also to build a respectful, collaborative relationship that fits each person's needs. Feedback from the person in therapy is welcomed and used to guide the process.
Dr. Keohane has long experience with chronic mental health conditions, including bipolar disorder, and with issues related to trauma, grief, self-esteem, attention challenges, and LGBTQ concerns. He also helps people facing family-of-origin questions, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to major life changes or disasters.
Sessions focus on clear, usable steps rather than jargon. People can expect straightforward strategies, mindfulness skills, and problem-solving tailored to daily life. The goal is to help people regain a sense of control and to manage symptoms so they can move forward.

How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing clear skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve concentration.Finding the right approach is a collaborative effort. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as feedback and progress emerge.
