Hannah Lima

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I specialize in helping individuals navigate Complex PTSD (CPTSD), PTSD, anxiety disorders, panic disorder, dissociation, and derealization/depersonalization. I have specialized experience supporting first responders, Veterans, and healthcare professionals.

I provide a compassionate, collaborative approach tailored to each client's unique needs.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can heal from trauma, reduce anxiety, and build lasting resilience using evidence-based treatment.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I utilize a three-phase trauma treatment model that emphasizes stabilization, processing, and integration. I believe in providing psychoeducation, normalizing symptoms, and teaching practical grounding skills to help clients feel safe, regain functioning, and build resilience before processing trauma at a pace that feels manageable.

I value client autonomy and believe healing happens through collaboration, validation, and self-compassion. My goal is to help clients reframe unhelpful beliefs, process difficult experiences, and learn to embrace their humanity with greater confidence and resilience.

Clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental first session focused on understanding their experiences and goals. We'll begin by exploring what brings you to therapy, normalizing your symptoms, and providing psychoeducation to help make sense of what you're experiencing. Together, we'll develop a collaborative treatment plan, and you'll leave with practical tools and strategies you can begin using right away to support healing and improve daily functioning.
