About Hannah
Hannah Herrin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Illinois with 11 years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Hannah also focuses on issues such as body image, communication problems, control issues, and panic attacks.
Her approach blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques. Sessions involve listening, reflecting emotions, and practical skills to cope with intense feelings. She uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support shifts in behavior and thinking.
In sessions she pays attention to how emotions show up in relationships and daily life. That can include patterns of avoidance, impulsivity, or feelings of emptiness. Work may include naming difficult emotions, practicing new responses, and trying small changes between sessions.
Hannah has particular experience with substance use concerns and related life stressors. She draws on strategies to address cravings, decision-making, and rebuilding routines. Clients can expect a focus on concrete steps alongside exploring emotional patterns.
Her practice is in Illinois and she conducts work in English. To begin, people complete an initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Hannah Uses EFT, CBT, and Client-Centered Work Online
Hannah uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape interactions and personal patterns. EFT can help when feelings are hard to name and when emotional responses repeat in stressful moments. It is often used to make sense of strong emotions and shift reactive patterns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and following the person's concerns. That approach supports people who want space to explore feelings and set their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and practice concrete skills for mood, anxiety, and addiction-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Hannah will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the work as needs change.
