    About Hana

    Hana Gilliom is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the emotional impact of trauma. She also supports people dealing with anger, self-esteem struggles, sleep problems, LGBT concerns, family stress, and major life changes. Hana writes simply and listens closely to each person’s priorities.

    Hana uses a strengths-based, client-centered approach in sessions. That means she starts by asking what matters most to the person and builds on existing strengths. She draws on practical methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping skills and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

    Motivational Interviewing also appears in her work to help people clarify goals and find their own motivation to make changes. Mindfulness techniques are used when helpful to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with simple tools to practice between meetings.

    Hana has worked in the field for 10 years and brings a calm, respectful style to the therapeutic relationship. Her LCSW credential reflects her clinical training and experience. She practices in Indiana and offers sessions in English.

    People who choose Hana can expect direct conversation, practical strategies, and a focus on what will help them in day-to-day life. To begin, she asks about priorities and together they set small, achievable steps toward change.

  2. How Hana blends approaches for online therapy

    Hana often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and set realistic goals. This approach focuses on listening, asking open questions, and helping people move from thinking about change to taking action.

    She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes understanding each person without judgment and letting the person's concerns guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and to build practical coping skills for anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems.

    Finding the right approach is part of the process. Hana works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. She checks in regularly to adjust techniques and goals so the work remains helpful and realistic.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that video or phone sessions let them practice skills in real life and follow up between meetings more easily.
