Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Hannah integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, empathetic environment where the person's own goals and values guide the work - this approach helps clients who need a validating space to explore feelings and clarify priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps identify and modify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often effective for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and managing day-to-day stressors. Mindfulness Therapy can also be woven into sessions to help people build awareness of bodily sensations and thought patterns and to strengthen emotional regulation skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Hannah works collaboratively to tailor methods to each client's needs, goals, and preferences. She and the client will explore which techniques feel most useful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for this collaborative work. Video calls and phone sessions make it possible to hold focused, face-to-face conversations from different locations, while live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible options for shorter check-ins or support between sessions. These formats increase accessibility and make it easier to fit consistent care into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who adapt their methods to each client's situation.
