About Hannah
Hannah holds LISW and LICSW credentials and brings three years of clinical experience. She uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs in the moment. Sessions focus on what feels useful now, whether that means learning new coping skills or making space to process loss.
Her approach centers on listening and collaborating. Hannah leans on client-centered methods to help people lead the conversation and set goals. She combines that with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice patterns and DBT strategies for managing intense emotions.
Mindfulness practices and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are also part of her toolbox when they fit a person's goals. These methods can help with relationship strain, self-esteem, or finding calmer daily routines. Hannah also notes experience with caregiver issues, aging and geriatric concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, postpartum depression, fertility-related stress, traumatic brain injury, hearing impairment, and isolation or loneliness.
People who reach out can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation. Hannah aims to help people make small, manageable changes and build on their existing strengths.

How Hannah Uses Therapeutic Tools Online
Client-centered therapy puts the person's priorities first. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, asks about what matters most, and helps shape goals around the client's lived needs. This approach is useful for people who want to steer sessions and focus on personal strengths.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short, practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress when a person wants concrete steps to change daily patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills can make intense moments easier to manage and reduce reactive behavior in relationships and caregiving roles.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try based on their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan can change if needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online appointments fit into busy days more easily, since they can reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to schedule around work or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work effectively across remote sessions when both people agree on the plan.
