About Patrick

Dr. Patrick Keohane is a clinical psychologist licensed in South Dakota (SD Psychologist 380) with 27 years of experience working with adult clients. He focuses on common concerns adults bring from home and life - stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, anger, addictions, grief, relationship strain, and ADHD. Sessions address these issues and related difficulties adults face in parenting and family roles.

He uses a mix of approaches that include cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered methods. That means practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, combined with an emphasis on listening and working together. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness practices when useful.

In sessions he pays attention to how family of origin, attachment, and fatherhood concerns affect daily life. He also helps people cope with abandonment, communication and commitment problems, caregiver stress, and the fallout from divorce or separation. First responder stresses and coping after disasters are also within his focus.

Dr. Keohane values straightforward feedback during therapy so sessions can be adjusted to what works. He frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client's goals shape the work. He aims to help people develop clearer ways to manage emotions, handle relationships, and improve sleep and daily routines.

His practice is conducted in English and he does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.

How sessions work

Therapy approaches and working online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then take practical steps toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching skills to change them. It is often used for worry, sleep problems, anger, and addictive behaviors.

Dr. Keohane treats the choice of approach as something to decide together. He reviews what you want to get out of therapy and adapts methods to match your goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes regular feedback so sessions can shift as needed.

The original profile does not list which online session formats are used. Please confirm available formats before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make therapy fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use techniques such as mindfulness exercises and behavioral experiments between sessions to support change.
