Background and approach

Hannah helps clients notice patterns, build coping skills, and practice new ways of responding to difficult moments. People who come to her often want help with life transitions, motivation, or relationship communication. She also addresses worries about body image, attachment struggles, obsessive thoughts and compulsions, and social anxiety.

Work may include short-term strategies and deeper skills for long-term change. Hannah draws from several approaches, including cognitive behavioral methods, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices. She adapts those tools to each person’s needs and pace.

The style is warm, straightforward, and focused on practical outcomes. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Hannah encourages people to take the first step at a pace that feels manageable and to use therapy as a place to try new ways of coping and living.

Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It can help when worry or avoidance is getting in the way of the life you want to live.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical strategies to reduce anxious thoughts and change unhelpful behaviors in everyday situations.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Hannah will discuss your goals and preferences and try methods that fit your situation. Together you can adjust techniques over time so the work feels useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be a shorter check-in or a way to process between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to use methods consistently between meetings.
