About Hannah
Hannah Gibson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with ten years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strains, and life transitions. Hannah also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, addiction concerns, mood and panic disorders, and issues related to self-esteem and identity.
She trained at Indiana University and has continued professional study while working toward a doctorate in psychology. That ongoing study keeps her practicing fresh and learning additional skills relevant to common problems people bring to therapy. Hannah uses what fits the person rather than sticking to a single technique.
Her approach is collaborative. She aims to help people talk through upsetting patterns, understand how past attachment and family experiences affect current feelings, and build clearer communication skills. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness are offered alongside relational talk work when helpful.
Hannah also draws on motivational interviewing to help with changes such as addressing addictive patterns or shifting behaviors at work. Sessions focus on concrete next steps as well as exploring underlying feelings like abandonment, shame, or guilt. She mentions that the relationship in therapy matters and encourages honest, direct conversation about goals and progress.
People who reach out can expect straightforward, problem-focused work. Hannah invites clients to complete an initial questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can begin figuring out what approach will fit their needs.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Hannah commonly integrates attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns, which can help when anger or trust issues come up. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve coping.She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s experience and motivational interviewing to support change. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. Hannah works with clients to decide what fits their goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing one way of working.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Once you choose to proceed, the process is to complete the brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time so sessions are more practical alongside work or caregiving responsibilities.
