Matt Fosket Counseling LLC

Matt Fosket Counseling LLC I help adults and teens work through trauma, anxiety, and depression with direct, effective therapy. In-person in North Platte + statewide telehealth.

Specializing in EMDR, men’s mental health, first responders, LGBTQIA, and adoption-related concerns. Finding the right therapist matters. You need someone who understands you, respects what you’ve been carrying, and doesn’t waste your time. I offer a grounded, steady approach that’s built on trust, honesty, and real connection. My goal is simple: help you make meaningful progress and understand what’s actually driving your symptoms so you can move forward with clarity. I specialize in trauma recovery and use EMDR therapy as a primary modality, along with IFS, CBT, DBT, and other evidence-based approaches. I work with adults and adolescents facing anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, adoption-related challenges, identity concerns, and behavioral difficulties. My style is calm, direct, and practical. I want you to understand your patterns, what your body is trying to tell you, and what tools will help you get unstuck. I work extensively with men, first responders, and LGBTQIA+ clients. Men, in particular, often carry pressure quietly and wait too long to reach out. Therapy doesn’t have to feel complicated or uncomfortable—it just needs to be honest, respectful, and effective. I create a space where men and adolescents can talk openly, drop the armor, and work on the parts of their life that aren’t working anymore. My approach to therapy is also shaped by my life outside the office. I’m a husband and a parent to both adopted and biological children, including teenagers, and that experience gives me a practical, real-world perspective when working with families. I understand the realities, frustrations, and complexities that come with parenting, especially within adoption and blended family systems. I completed the nationally recognized Training for Adoption Competency (TAC) program through C.A.S.E., which allows me to offer adoption-competent mental health therapy for children, parents, birth parents, and extended family systems. In addition to therapy, I provide clinical supervision for new therapists in Nebraska. I’m committed to helping clinicians develop a strong, ethical, grounded practice while building confidence in their professional identity. I am a National Board Certified Counselor and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) in the State of Nebraska. I hold a Master of Arts in Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Chadron State College and a BA in Secondary Education from the University of Nebraska at Kearney. I’m an active member of the American Counseling Association, the Nebraska Counseling Association, and the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA.) I own and operate Matt Fosket Counseling LLC, where I provide mental health therapy, supervision, consultation, and office building management.

April is Child Abuse Awareness Month 💙

Today, Maria and I are wearing blue to stand in support of children, survivors, and the adults who are still carrying stories that were never theirs to hold.

Child abuse isn’t always visible.
And healing doesn’t always look the way people expect.

What does matter is this:
Awareness creates space.
Safe relationships create change.
And support can make a lasting difference.

If this month brings up anything for you, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself.

Let’s keep showing up, speaking up, and creating safer spaces for kids and for the adults they become.

💙 If this resonates, consider sharing to help raise awareness.

Therapy isn’t the same for everyone—and Maria truly honors that.

Her approach is warm, engaging, and built around connection. She meets clients where they’re at—especially kids who may not have the words yet to explain what they’re feeling.

Because sometimes healing doesn’t start with talking… it starts with feeling safe.

What is EMDR therapy?

Sometimes painful experiences get “stuck” in the brain, which can keep the body reacting as if the danger is still happening.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy approach that helps the brain process those memories so they feel less overwhelming over time.

Through guided recall and gentle bilateral stimulation (like eye movements or tapping), the brain can begin to store the memory in a healthier way.

Healing doesn’t erase the past.
It helps your mind and body stop reliving it.

A lot of people wait until things feel unbearable before reaching out for support.

But therapy isn’t just for crisis. It can be a place to slow down, sort through what’s weighing on you, and figure out your next steps.

Whether you’re dealing with stress, depression, relationship struggles, or just feeling stuck — talking with someone can help you gain clarity and move forward.

You don’t have to carry it all by yourself.

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be about perfection.
It can be about presence.

Today is an invitation to notice the love that already exists:

- The people who show up
- The moments that feel steady
- The ways you’ve learned to care for yourself

Love isn’t only romantic.
It shows up as kindness. Boundaries. Laughter. Rest. Growth.

So today, maybe love looks like:

- Reaching out to someone safe
- Doing something small that feels nourishing
- Letting yourself enjoy what is, without comparison

However you mark today, you’re allowed to make it your own. 💝
There’s no right way to feel—just your way.

In the 1850s, racism was embedded so deeply into medicine that a false “diagnosis” called drapetomania was created to label enslaved people who attempted to escape slavery—treating the desire for freedom as a mental illness.

This wasn’t science. It was control.

Understanding this history matters. It helps explain why mistrust of mental health systems exists and why culturally responsive, ethical, and trauma-informed care is essential today.

Honoring Black history includes naming past harm and continuing to move mental health care toward dignity, equity, and healing. 🖤
