About Hannah

Hannah Padilla is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses a person-centered approach alongside cognitive behavioral ideas. She aims to create a warm, respectful space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and relationship or family concerns. Hannah focuses on clear tools people can use day to day rather than long academic explanations.

Hannah draws on about four years of clinical experience working with adolescents and adults. Much of that work has involved trauma, including sexual and physical abuse, domestic violence, and neglect. She also supports people dealing with depression, self-esteem struggles, anger, and life transitions.

Her main clinical orientation is cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. She pairs that with client-centered methods that put the person’s goals and values first. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas also appear in her work to help people notice patterns and try practical steps.

In sessions she balances support with gentle challenges to help people make changes they want to see. Practical skills may include ways to manage intense emotions, improve boundaries, and reduce automatic negative thoughts. The pace and techniques are adjusted to each person’s needs.

Hannah works in English and practices in Texas. She asks new clients to use the Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on therapist availability. Her sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Hannah Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Hannah commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, respect, and following the person’s goals. It’s useful for building trust and clarifying what someone wants to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT provides concrete tools to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and shift self-critical thinking.

She also incorporates mindfulness skills to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up in them. Mindfulness can support better emotional regulation and reduce reactivity during stressful moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Hannah will talk with the person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs. She adjusts techniques over time and invites feedback so the work stays focused and useful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while they work on stress, anger, trauma recovery, and everyday coping skills.
