    About Carrie

    Carrie Hillebrandt is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) with 16 years in the mental health field. She sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, ADHD, bipolar conditions, and career or life-purpose questions.

    Carrie draws from person-centered care and a variety of therapeutic approaches to match each person’s needs. She emphasizes building rapport as a first step and treats people with respect and patience without judgment. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage symptoms, improve communication, and move toward personal goals.

    Her background includes work in residential settings and private practice, so she has experience with a wide range of life situations. She also has experience related to adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and coping after disasters. That practical experience informs how she helps people manage everyday challenges.

    Carrie uses methods such as Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She keeps learning through trainings, reading, and peer consultation, and she supervises other therapists as part of her professional work.

    People who choose Carrie can expect a collaborative process to identify goals and craft a personalized plan. She welcomes international clients and offers services from Nebraska for English-speaking clients.

  2. How treatment approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative style that helps people find their own reasons for change. It uses gentle questions and reflective listening to build motivation for steps like improving mood, managing impulses, or addressing substance use. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change unhelpful interaction habits in relationships.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will help clients decide which methods fit best based on their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as they move forward. That collaboration helps make therapy personally useful rather than one-size-fits-all.

    The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options when you book. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and offer choices for people who prefer not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt Motivational Interviewing, ACT, and attachment-focused techniques to work well in remote sessions, focusing on practical steps and real-life application.
