About Carrie

Carrie Hillebrandt is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) practicing in Nebraska with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, relationship and family concerns, grief, and life transitions. Carrie also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue.

She uses practical, evidence-based approaches in session. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns of thought and behavior, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and next steps, and mindfulness practices to steady attention in difficult moments. Carrie also draws on attachment-focused ways of thinking when early bonds affect current relationships.

Sessions are person-centered in style. That means conversation begins with what matters most to the client. The therapist and the client set goals together and pick methods that fit those goals. Expect talk that names feelings and patterns, practical strategies to try between sessions, and straightforward feedback.

Carrie has worked in residential settings and private practice. She has experience with adoption and foster care issues and has supervised other clinicians and led group consultations. Her background includes crisis and adjustment work as well as longer-term therapeutic work.

She keeps current through ongoing training and reading. To start, a short intake helps identify concerns and priorities so sessions can focus on clear, manageable steps.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters to them. It emphasizes taking small, value-driven steps even when emotions are difficult, and can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand recurring conflicts, communication problems, and attachment issues that affect parenting and close relationships.

Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences and then recommend techniques to try. That collaborative process means methods can change as needs and goals become clearer.

Confirm the exact session formats and scheduling options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they can fit a meeting into a busy day, shorten travel time, or choose a quieter moment for check-in. Some formats make it easier to use brief check-ins or to avoid being on camera when that helps. Verify which formats are offered so sessions can be planned to fit everyday life.
