Dr. Doris "Dee" Hann-Morrison, LPC

Dr. Doris "Dee" Hann-Morrison is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina who brings 25 years of clinical experience to her work with adults and families. She has long focused on women's issues, especially the experiences of women of color, and is the author of several books including 'Even Superwoman Needs To Cry Sometimes'.

She is known for a direct, purposeful style that invites clients to engage actively in change. Dr. Hann-Morrison centers treatment on each person’s goals and available strengths, offering support while also challenging unhelpful patterns of thinking. Spirituality - not necessarily religion - is welcomed as part of care when clients want to include it, and cultural values are given thoughtful consideration throughout the therapeutic process.

Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns including addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, self-esteem and mood disorders, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting and family difficulties, career and life transitions, and caregiver and geriatric issues. Dr. Hann-Morrison emphasizes practical growth, resilience, and meaningful change, creating a space where clients can speak openly without fear of reprisal or judgment.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Doris "Dee" Hann-Morrison draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered and Mindfulness approaches to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on values-driven action - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship and supports clients in finding their own solutions and personal direction, which is helpful for self-esteem, relationship concerns, and grief. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, offering tools for stress, trauma symptoms, and everyday overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Hann-Morrison will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine elements from different approaches to match individual needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to access care from home, while balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and continue therapeutic work despite busy schedules or geographic constraints.
