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 facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, grief, and life changes. Carrie also works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood issues, and compassion fatigue.

Clients can expect a practical, person-centered approach. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based work, client-centered methods, and mindfulness. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses. The aim is clearer thinking and more workable habits rather than labels or quick fixes.

Her background includes work in residential settings and private practice, and she has experience with adoption and foster care issues. She supervises other clinicians and keeps up with continuing education to refine her practice. That experience shapes how she structures sessions and follow-up work.

Carrie emphasizes building rapport early so clients feel understood before moving on to skills and strategies. She helps people set concrete goals, practice new skills between meetings, and track progress over time. Her style is straightforward and practical, with a focus on what people can try between sessions.

She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Before scheduling, people are encouraged to confirm current session formats and how they prefer to work together.

How CBT and related approaches work for online sessions

CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It breaks problems into smaller, manageable steps and teaches practical strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and practice actions that match those values, useful for life changes and persistent worry. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people recognize and change ways of relating that cause conflict or distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, ACT, attachment-focused techniques, or a mix is the best fit. That decision is based on the client's goals, past experiences, and how they respond to early sessions, and it can change over time.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in real-life settings and bring notes or worksheets into the session. Discussing preferred formats is one of the first steps when arranging appointments with a licensed professional.
