About Lorri

Lorri Hanson is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Washington with ten years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. She brings particular experience working with perinatal mood disorders, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue, and she helps clients navigate the impacts of abuse and post-traumatic stress. Her approach emphasizes the client as the expert in their own life, building on existing strengths to identify practical steps toward greater well-being.

Hanson integrates evidence-informed methods to address mood and trauma-related concerns while attending to fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and other life-stage challenges. She frames therapy as a collaborative process that asks for courage and active engagement, and she focuses on empowering clients to move toward a more fulfilling life. As a licensed social worker, Hanson combines clinical skill with a compassionate, strengths-based stance to support people through difficult transitions and recovery from traumatic events.

She is not currently accepting clients.

Approaches for Online Trauma and Mood Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a collaborative environment where the therapist follows the client's lead, offering empathy and support while the person identifies their own goals and solutions. This approach is helpful for people who want a strengths-based partnership to explore life changes and personal meaning.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based method that helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and replace them with more adaptive strategies. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management and offers concrete tools for day-to-day coping.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-informed approach designed to help process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity. It can be a useful option for people working through past abuse, post-traumatic stress, or lingering trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lorri works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose formats that suit their schedules and comfort levels. Licensed professionals can deliver many therapeutic tools effectively in these formats, making it easier to maintain continuity of care even when in-person options are limited.
