About Hannah
Hannah McManis is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with six years of practice supporting people through a wide range of life challenges.
Background and approach
She has experience working with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, parenting and family strains, career transitions, bipolar mood concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes several evidence-based methods while she collaborates with clients to tailor a plan to their needs.
Her style is warm, interactive, and grounded in respect and empathy. Hannah emphasizes a client-centered stance that honors each person’s values and cultural background, while drawing on cognitive-behavioral and dialectical skills along with mindfulness and motivational interviewing when helpful.
She aims to help clients identify strengths and practical strategies so they can apply tools to real-life situations. Clients who value an engaged, respectful therapist will find a focus on individualized goals and practical problem solving.
Hannah frames progress as a collaborative process and seeks to create a therapeutic plan that fits each person’s priorities and pace.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Hannah commonly uses cognitive-behavioral therapy to help clients notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering concrete strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which centers the client's values and experiences and creates a collaborative space for exploring goals and choices. When emotional regulation and distress tolerance are central needs, elements of dialectical behavior therapy are used to build skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Hannah works together with each client to determine what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes collaboration and tailors techniques based on what is most useful in real life rather than relying on a single method.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for people juggling work, family, or mobility constraints. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency in care and to practice skills between sessions while fitting therapy into everyday routines.
