About Hannah
Hannah Herrin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, self-esteem struggles, depression, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
She draws on eleven years of clinical experience to guide clients through practical coping strategies and emotional processing while adapting approaches to each person’s needs. Her style blends client-centered care with structured, evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices.
Motivational interviewing and emotionally-focused interventions are woven in when addressing motivation, relationship-related patterns, and deeper emotional concerns. Hannah aims to create space for clients to explore issues like body image, control problems, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness while working toward clearer goals and healthier patterns.
Practicing in Illinois, Hannah combines warmth and clinical rigor to support those facing communication difficulties, family problems, mood and panic symptoms, substance use challenges, and questions about life purpose. She communicates in English and offers flexible session formats to fit different schedules and preferences.
Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead to build insight and self-directed change; it helps when someone needs an empathic space to clarify values and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) uses practical skill-building to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, mood difficulties, and panic symptoms. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people notice and reorganize emotional responses and relationship patterns, which can assist those dealing with communication problems, shame, or emptiness.Finding the best fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences with the client and suggest approaches or combinations that align with what the client hopes to accomplish. Adjustments are made over time to ensure the work stays relevant and effective.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing therapy to occur around work, family, and life commitments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to try different styles of interaction so clients can choose what feels most helpful for their progress.
