About Hannah

Hannah Strength is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama with three years of clinical experience. She invites people to share their stories and aims to help them carry less emotional weight. Hannah emphasizes a team approach that centers the person's own goals and strengths.

She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger, and life changes. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, relationship issues, and challenges related to identity and LGBT topics.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and practical. Hannah listens first to understand what matters most, then helps people try small, useful techniques to manage symptoms and build skills. She encourages regular check-ins so progress can be adjusted as needs change.

Her approach draws from several methods including client-centered work that follows the person's lead, cognitive behavioral ideas that look at thoughts and behaviors, and dialectical skills for managing strong emotions. She brings these tools together to fit each person's situation rather than using a single formula.

Hannah works with adults and teens and pays attention to life context such as adoption or foster care experiences, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and substance-related issues. She values collaboration and aims to create a calm space for people to explore options and set goals they can live with.

To begin, she asks people to share what they hope to change and then co-develops concrete steps. The emphasis is on practical help, steady support, and building on each person's existing strengths.

Approaches in online sessions and how they help

Hannah blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques to support people in online sessions. Client-centered Therapy centers the person's own experience and priorities; the therapist listens without steering and helps people name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behavior patterns and uses simple experiments and skills to reduce unhelpful reactions and improve daily functioning. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when strong emotions or crises are present. DBT teaches concrete skills for tolerating distress, regulating intense feelings, and improving how people interact with others. Together these approaches give practical tools as well as space to reflect on deeper concerns. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hannah will collaborate with the person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and current challenges. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans so the work stays relevant and useful. Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let the therapist see nonverbal cues and recreate a face-to-face rhythm. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief processing between sessions, and flexibility for people with busy schedules. These formats make it easier to maintain steady support while fitting therapy into everyday life.
