Compassionate Psychiatric Care for Cancer Patients

A cancer diagnosis can bring more than just physical challenges, it can also affect your emotions, sleep, and energy levels. Anxiety, mood changes, difficulty sleeping, and fatigue are common throughout the cancer journey, and treatments can sometimes add to these challenges by affecting hormones and brain chemistry.

At Nebraska Hematology-Oncology, our specialized psychiatric oncology team understands the unique mental health needs of cancer patients. We provide personalized care through thorough biopsychosocial assessments and customized treatment plans to help you feel your best.

Your team may recommend targeted treatments such as antidepressants, antianxiety medications, or medications to support better sleep and energy levels. We continuously adjust your care as needed, ensuring you receive the right support throughout your treatment.

Our expertise in psychiatric oncology allows us to bridge the connection between the body and mind, offering holistic care that truly understands the impact of cancer and its treatments. With us, you’re never alone—we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Take the next step in your healing journey. Schedule a consultation today by calling 402-484-4900.
