About Hannah
Hannah Padilla is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem problems, parenting strains, relationship frustrations, and anger. Hannah speaks English and works with adults on practical skills for daily life.
Hannah favors Client-Centered and cognitive approaches while remaining flexible to meet a person’s needs. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to address thinking patterns and behavior. Hannah has substantial experience supporting people who have experienced sexual abuse, physical abuse, domestic violence, and neglect, and she also works with those whose primary struggles are depression, anxiety, or anger management.
In sessions she focuses on skill-building for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. That includes spotting automatic negative thoughts, testing unhelpful beliefs, and practicing alternative responses. She emphasizes clear, goal-oriented work and challenges clients when helpful to prompt change.
Hannah draws on trauma-informed methods when trauma is part of the picture, helping people reduce how much past events interfere with daily functioning. She helps clients develop concrete coping strategies so symptoms interfere less with work, family, and relationships. Progress is framed as learning and practicing new skills rather than quick fixes.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted at this time.
How sessions work
How Hannah uses evidence-based methods in online sessions
Hannah often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. CBT is practical and focuses on changing patterns that sustain anxiety, low mood, or anger. It is useful for day-to-day challenges and specific problems.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s goals and perspective. That approach means sessions are collaborative and paced around what the client wants to work on. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce impulsive reactions, which can help with frustration and anger problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps pick which techniques to focus on and when to shift strategies.
