In her work with grieving families, Hannah approaches her sessions from a person-centered focus by acting as a companion in individuals’ grief, and by creating a warm, welcoming, and safe space for individuals to heal through the telling of their unique stories. Hannah also meets clients from a family systems approach and focuses on attachment relationships in her work with individuals and families, as well as keeping a focus on building up support systems and coping strategies. Hannah has a background in working with children and families in previous therapy roles through Child Guidance Resource Centers as both a group facilitator and outpatient therapist. During her time with the Center, she has also gained certification in trauma principles through Lakeside Global Institute’s training program, furthering her trauma-focused approach to sessions when appropriate. These approaches allow a safe space for individuals to explore difficult life experiences that they may not have the opportunity to in their day to day lives, as well as gain the strength and resilience to continue forward while still acknowledging the impact of their hardships.
