About Carrie
Carrie Hillebrandt is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) with 16 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, trauma and abuse, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

She uses practical, evidence-based methods in sessions and adapts techniques to fit each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Expect straightforward conversations about goals and small, doable steps between meetings. Carrie places importance on rapport and spends time creating a plan that feels useful and realistic. Her background includes work in residential settings and independent practice, giving her experience with a wide range of life challenges including grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and caregiver stress.
She also has experience with adoption and attachment concerns and with blended family issues. That range helps her spot patterns and tailor interventions for each situation. Carrie stays current through ongoing training, reading, and peer consultation, and she supervises other therapists as part of her professional practice.
This ongoing learning informs the way she adjusts plans and interventions as needs change. People who reach out can expect a calm, patient approach focused on practical coping skills, communication strategies, and steps toward clearer goals. Carrie will listen and work with clients to map out next steps at a manageable pace.

Approaches for parenting and life challenges online
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a practical method that looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. It helps people change unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits to reduce anxiety, depression, or impulsivity.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy blends acceptance of difficult feelings with committed action toward valued goals. It helps when worry or avoidance gets in the way of parenting tasks, relationships, or life transitions.
Carrie treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to choose and adjust methods based on goals and daily realities. Plans are reviewed and changed as needed so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for in-depth conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit a shorter break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or brief problem-solving between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and changing routines.
