About Carrie
Carrie Hillebrandt is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) in Nebraska with 16 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma and life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings to manage reactions and reduce overwhelming feelings.
Carrie draws from person-centered work and cognitive behavioral approaches to keep sessions straightforward and goal-focused. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness tools to help people notice painful thoughts without acting on them. Attachment-based ideas are used when patterns from early relationships affect present behavior.
Her background includes work in residential settings and private practice, supporting people from many backgrounds. She has experience with adoption and foster care issues and is considered adoption competent. She also brings experience addressing bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and disruptive mood dysregulation concerns.
Carrie emphasizes building rapport early so people feel respected and not judged. She regularly updates her skills through trainings, reading, and peer consultation, and she supervises other clinicians. That ongoing learning informs practical strategies used in sessions.
People who choose her can expect collaborative planning, clear homework or exercises when helpful, and patience while they practice new skills. She supports international clients and conducts sessions in English. To confirm current session options, readers should check available online therapy choices before booking.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that align with their values rather than reacting in the moment. It is useful for anger that feels automatic or for people who want clearer priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that fuel strong reactions and then testing new responses in real life. It helps with anger, anxiety, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current responses and can be helpful when anger links to trust, abandonment, or intimacy issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie treats this as a collaborative process and will adjust methods based on a person’s needs, goals, and what feels most practical. Sessions include discussion, short exercises, and plans to try between meetings so people can see what helps.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into busy schedules and making it easier to attend from different locations. Because the therapist’s session formats should be confirmed, check the available online therapy options before booking. Online work still centers on clear skills practice, using mindfulness, ACT, and CBT techniques to manage anger and improve daily functioning.
