    About Hannah

    Hannah Padilla is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses Motivational Interviewing and other person-centered approaches to help people make real changes. She aims to create a warm, respectful space and encourages clients to set clear goals for their lives. Hannah focuses on practical steps so people can move forward from where they are now.

    She has four years of experience working with adults and adolescents on trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem. Hannah also supports people facing relationship stress, parenting challenges, family problems, anger, and major life changes. Her background includes work with survivors of sexual abuse, physical abuse, domestic violence, and neglect.

    Hannah draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy alongside Motivational Interviewing. She explains how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors link together and helps clients learn new skills to manage distress and improve daily functioning. Sessions mix reflection, practical exercises, and goal-setting.

    Her style is warm and direct. She listens with empathy and also offers challenges when needed to encourage progress. Hannah works with each person to build a plan and track change over time.

    To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. Hannah uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

  2. How therapy approaches shape online work

    Hannah commonly uses Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Client-Centered methods. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and helps build commitment through guided conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and emphasizes acceptance and collaboration.

    Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Hannah will talk with each client about their goals, preferences, and daily challenges to decide which methods fit best. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress unfolds.

    Online therapy can make fitting sessions into busy life easier, such as using shorter check-ins or scheduling around work and family times. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to learn what is offered. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively online to teach skills, practice new behaviors, and track progress over time.
