About Hannah
Hannah Tollefson is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship struggles. She works with clients facing trauma, abuse, and major life changes. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel manageable and respectful for anyone nervous about starting therapy.
Hannah uses a dialog-based style that centers each person's needs. She listens first, then shapes a plan with the person in the room. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps people can try between meetings.
Her work draws on attachment-based ideas that look at how past bonds affect current relationships. She also practices client-centered techniques that follow the client's pace and priorities. Together these approaches help with codependency patterns, intimacy concerns, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness.
Hannah has six years of professional experience and holds the LPC credential, licensed in Texas. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in each conversation. That means adapting the pace, language, and goals to match what the individual needs.
Therapy with Hannah often includes talking through relationship patterns, developing coping strategies for anxiety, and planning small changes that build confidence. People leave sessions with concrete ideas to try and clearer steps to move forward.
How attachment and client-centered therapy translate online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this approach help people notice attachment reactions, understand triggers, and practice new ways of relating to others. This can be helpful for codependency, abandonment fears, and intimacy struggles.Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. In an online setting this means the therapist reflects what the person says, asks clarifying questions, and supports goals the person identifies. This approach suits people who want a collaborative, paced process.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which methods feel most useful and adjust as needed based on the client's goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session focus and homework between meetings.
