About Hana

Hana Blahova is an ACA counsellor who uses practical, person-focused methods to help people manage anxiety and stress. She keeps sessions direct and compassionate, and encourages people to draw on their own strengths. Hana welcomes straightforward conversation about worries, parenting strains, career concerns and other life changes.

She usually starts by listening to what matters most and what has already helped. From there she helps build simple steps people can try between sessions.

Background and approach

Techniques often come from cognitive behavioural approaches and mindfulness to reduce intense thoughts and improve everyday coping. Hana also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice difficult feelings without being overwhelmed by them. Narrative therapy is used to look at the stories people tell about themselves and find new, more helpful perspectives.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person’s needs. With six years of experience in Australia, she has supported people through trauma, caregiver stress, self-esteem issues and the strain of big life changes. Hana aims to make therapy something people can fit into a busy life, with clear goals and practical options.

She values small steps and real-world change. Signing up for therapy can feel hard, and Hana acknowledges that courage. Her approach is straightforward, respectful and focused on what works for each person.

How Hana’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on taking actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical strategies to change them, useful for stress, depression and panic. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of sessions and relies on listening and empathy to create a space where people can work through challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Hana will talk through goals, preferences and what has helped before, then suggest a mix of methods. The plan can change over time based on progress and what feels most useful to the individual.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for a full conversation with visual cues, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, quick reflections or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
