About Carrie

Carrie Gottschalk is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) in Nebraska with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting, anger, career questions, depression, coaching, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Her approach centers on forming a respectful therapeutic relationship. She uses client-centered methods and draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. She also uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to address overwhelming emotions and recurring patterns.

Carrie includes trauma-focused tools such as EMDR when appropriate, along with mindfulness-based practices to reduce distress. She favors solution-focused work that helps people identify problem-solving steps and build on existing strengths and supports. Sessions often focus on concrete strategies for coping with anger, stress, and changes in life circumstances.

Clients are encouraged to bring current concerns and real examples from daily life. The therapist and client collaborate to set goals and try techniques over time. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

Approaches used online and how they help

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions. It can help when anger connects to feeling misunderstood, abandoned, or overly criticized in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete ways to shift unhelpful thinking that fuels anger and anxiety. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method used to reduce the intensity of disturbing memories and reactions when past events drive current anger.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily challenges, and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the work stays focused and practical.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy day, keeping sessions concise, or avoiding travel. Online work supports practicing real-world skills between meetings and reviewing concrete coping strategies with a licensed professional.
