Throughout the course of therapy, Dr. Hannani uses empathy, curiosity, and non-judgment to allow clients to feel safe and heard. She works hand-in-hand with clients to cultivate long-lasting changes that align with their unique values and aspirations. In the process, she reviews tools for moving toward the direction of self-empowerment, so that clients can feel more equipped to bypass the hurdles that come their way. She draws from evidence-based approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).
"Thorough, collaborative, holistic, and consideration to their cultural beliefs, family system, and physical well-being.”
