About Sabrina

Sabrina Hanson greets people who are ready to make a change with calm encouragement and straightforward support. She keeps sessions practical and focused on clearing obstacles that make daily life harder. Sabrina uses simple tools and guided conversations to help people move toward more ease at home and in relationships.

Sabrina earned a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Franciscan University of Steubenville in 2016 and a Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Florida State University in 2002.

Background and approach

She holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and the Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor credential - LPC and LPCC - with licensure records in Texas (TX LPC 81692) and Ohio (OH LPCC E.1801006). Her work emphasizes healing after trauma and support for addiction recovery.

She blends several evidence-based techniques and draws on extra training in trauma treatments, nutrition and mental health, and addiction counseling. Much of her practice centers on helping people reconnect with their core sense of self and rebuild day-to-day functioning. Sabrina favors a collaborative relationship in therapy.

She invites feedback so sessions stay aligned with each person’s needs. Her aim is to hand over practical skills that clients can use outside of sessions to continue progress on their own. People often find her approach accessible and intentional.

She describes therapy as a journey taken together, focused on easing stress, improving coping, and finding more freedom in life.

How specific approaches translate to online care

Internal Family Systems is a central part of her work. It helps people identify different parts of themselves, understand their roles, and build a calmer internal leadership. This approach can be useful for anxiety, trauma responses, and reshaping unhelpful patterns.

Sabrina also uses trauma-focused strategies that draw on training such as EMDR-informed techniques and the Instinctual Trauma Response Model. These methods help process painful memories and reduce how strongly they affect daily life, which can make stress and reactivity easier to manage.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. She works together with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Feedback guides adjustments so therapy fits the person over time rather than being a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy lets sessions happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility around busy schedules and family life. These formats make it possible to maintain momentum between in-person commitments and access regular support from licensed professionals. For many people, remote sessions reduce travel and make consistent care easier to keep up with.
