More about Hannah
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for understanding the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and the mind-body connection. My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empirical research, integrating psychodynamic, attachment-based, family systems, and emotionally focused approaches.
I work with adolescents and adults navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, and significant life transitions. Drawing on my training in trauma-informed care and as a certified Conscious Uncoupling facilitator, I help clients develop deeper self-awareness, recognize patterns that may no longer serve them, and create meaningful, lasting change.
As a therapist, I am engaged, interactive, and genuinely present. I believe effective therapy balances insight and emotional exploration with practical strategies, creating an environment where clients feel understood, appropriately challenged, and empowered to move forward.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
