Dr. Doris "Dee" Hann-Morrison , LPC

Dr. Doris \"Dee\" Hann-Morrison brings a direct, strength-based approach to clinical work, drawing on 25 years of experience helping clients pursue meaningful change. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), she combines practical guidance with respectful challenge, encouraging clients to clarify goals and use existing strengths to promote healing and growth.

Her clinical focus includes support for women, with a long history of serving women of color. She has authored several books on related topics, including the notable title "Even Superwoman Needs To Cry Sometimes," which reflects her commitment to addressing emotional needs and resilience.

Dr. Hann-Morrison emphasizes culturally informed care and gives weight to each person’s values and background. Spirituality - understood broadly and not confined to religion - is often incorporated into treatment when clients wish to include it. She expects clients to arrive ready to engage in the work of change, and she balances encouragement with thoughtful challenge to help move the process forward.

Sessions with Dr. Hann-Morrison are presented as the client’s time and space to explore concerns without judgment. Her approach is practical, purposeful, and oriented toward the outcomes the client defines.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Hann-Morrison draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take committed action even when unpleasant thoughts or feelings arise. ACT is useful for addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions by fostering psychological flexibility and purposeful behavior.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathy, active listening, and the client’s own capacity for growth. This approach supports self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, and other issues by creating a collaborative, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Hann-Morrison works with clients to identify which methods align with their goals, preferences, and needs, and she adjusts the plan over time as those needs evolve.

Online therapy with Dr. Hann-Morrison is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care during periods of change.
