About Hillary

Hillary Haarmann is an LCSW with two decades of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, ADHD, and other mood or life-change challenges.

Background and approach

She works with clients coping with grief, caregiving strain, addictions, intimacy and communication concerns, and the emotional fallout of major transitions like new parenting or career shifts. Her practice also addresses issues such as self-esteem, loneliness, sexuality, and seasonally influenced mood changes.

Hillary draws on client-centered principles to create a collaborative, strengths-based environment in which clients' goals guide the work. She frequently uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns, and incorporates mindfulness and solution-focused strategies to build practical skills and momentum toward change.

With training from Indiana University and Washington University in St. Louis, she blends evidence-informed tools with a focus on empowerment and real-world problem solving.

In sessions she prioritizes helping people develop a healthier self-view, reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life, and pursue achievable, meaningful goals. Hillary practices in Missouri and offers a compassionate, goal-oriented approach intended to help clients move forward and regain balance.

Online Approaches That Emphasize Practical Skills and Presence

Hillary commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and mood regulation. Mindfulness therapy teaches skills for staying present and noticing thoughts and feelings without getting swept away, which can support stress reduction and improved emotional awareness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She partners with clients to explore which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time so the plan fits each person’s life and challenges.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access care from home or elsewhere in Missouri. These formats allow for regular check-ins, skill practice between sessions, and flexible scheduling so clients can maintain steady progress while balancing other responsibilities.
