Approaches and Online Support with Hannah Thayer

Hannah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them while clarifying personal values and taking action that aligns with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test practical strategies to change behaviors and reduce distress. Client-Centered Therapy offers a supportive, empathic environment where the therapist follows the client's lead and encourages self-exploration and growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Hannah collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy provides flexible options for care, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to schedule appointments around work, school, and family commitments and to access licensed professionals from different locations. Many people find that the convenience of online sessions helps them stay consistent with therapy and integrate new skills into daily life.
