    About Carrie

    Carrie Gottschalk, LIMHP, works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. She helps clients who are coping with life changes, relationship and family strains, compassion fatigue, anger, career concerns, ADHD, and trauma-related issues including post-traumatic stress and attachment difficulties. Carrie writes in a warm, direct way and aims to make the first steps less overwhelming.

    Carrie uses a collaborative style that centers the person in the conversation. She listens with respect and sensitivity and helps people build on their strengths. Sessions are interactive and focused on practical steps that match each person’s goals and situation.

    Her approach draws from several methods, including Motivational Interviewing, Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centered work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Those tools are used to uncover patterns, manage strong emotions, and try new ways of coping. She also incorporates solution-focused ideas to develop real problem-solving strategies.

    With ten years of experience as a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner in Nebraska, Carrie aims to tailor treatment plans to each individual. She emphasizes working at a comfortable pace and involving whatever personal supports a client finds helpful. The goal is steady progress toward clearer thinking and more manageable days.

    Carrie encourages people to take the first step toward change and offers guidance along the way. She supports clients as they try new skills, test solutions, and reshape routines to better match their values and needs.

  2. How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what they want to change and overcome mixed feelings about taking that step. It uses open conversation and reflective listening to build motivation for practical change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating and feeling safer in connections.

    Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking how they feel, and adapting the plan together over time.

    The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use therapy from wherever they are located within the therapist's service area, helping to keep momentum between sessions and practice new skills in everyday life.
