About Doris
Dr. Doris "Dee" Hann-Morrison blends direct, goal-focused work with respect for each person's cultural values. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of practice in South Carolina.
She asks clients to come ready to grow and to use their strengths to move forward. She often centers sessions on the goals a person brings and the assets they already have. Sessions can include honest feedback and gentle challenges to unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
Spirituality may be part of the work when the client wants it, but it is never assumed. Dr. Hann-Morrison has a long history writing about women's issues and supporting women of color, though she shapes each conversation around the individual's needs.
Her approach aims to combine practical steps with attention to meaning and values. This helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, addiction, and life transitions. She draws from several evidence-informed approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, existential ideas, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
These tools are used to build coping skills, clarify values, and increase psychological flexibility. In sessions she will listen, reflect, and offer direction when it helps. The focus is on small, steady changes that add up over time.
People who want straightforward guidance and a culturally aware practitioner may find her style useful.
How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in that direction despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where values and commitment matter.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the client's own pace of change. This approach helps people feel heard and build confidence to try new behaviors. Motivational Interviewing is used to strengthen a person’s own motivation to change, especially for issues like addiction or lifestyle shifts.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the client's goals, preferences, and needs. Together they decide which techniques to emphasize and adjust them as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
