About Hana
Hana Gilliom is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) practicing in Indiana with 10 years of experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, grief, sleep problems, and major life changes. She also supports LGBT clients and people coping with family-related strain.
Hana favors a strengths-based, client-centered way of working. Sessions focus on what is already going well and build practical skills from there. Conversations are straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to what a person can try between sessions.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. Dialectical behavior strategies are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. Mindfulness exercises are offered to improve focus and reduce rumination.
Motivational interviewing supports change when someone feels stuck or ambivalent. The overall aim is to help people make clear, manageable steps toward feeling less reactive and more in control of day-to-day responses to stress and anger.
Hana’s background includes a decade of clinical work across common mental health concerns. People can expect practical tools, short-term skill building, and ongoing checks on whether an approach is working. International clients can be seen and sessions follow the platform’s process for getting started.

DBT offers concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance when reactions feel overwhelming.She also uses client-centered techniques to keep the focus on each person’s strengths and goals. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the collaboration. Hana will review what helps, adjust strategies, and prioritize approaches that fit a person’s daily life and goals.
