About
I am Hollin Hanau, a Mental Health Counselor with my Limited Permit, practicing in New York State. I am passionate about working with clients ranging from young adults, to middle-aged adults in both individual and group therapy. I most often work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, challenging family dynamics, and childhood trauma. I also have experience working with individuals struggling with low self-esteem and attachment issues.
My approach is also rooted in client-centered therapy, which means that my clients are at the heart of the therapeutic process. I believe that each client is the expert to their own life and that my role is to support and guide my clients through exploration of their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I also incorporate aspects of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to provide my clients with coping skills to improve their daily functioning, as well as Strength-Based Therapy.
I am EFIT (emotion-focused individual therapy) trained and I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship to foster healing and growth. Therefore, I am committed to building a partnership with all of my clients that is based on trust and mutual respect. Together, we can work towards your goals and uncover your inner strengths, helping you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.
I earned my Ed.M. in Mental Health Counseling and my M.A. in Psychological Counseling from Teachers College, Columbia University. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, with minors in Sociology and Counseling from Wake Forest University.
