Hannah Keefer

Hannah Keefer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate addictions, relationship struggles, and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing big life changes and burnout from caregiving or emotionally demanding roles. Her manner is straightforward and empathetic, aimed at making hard conversations feel manageable.

Hannah uses a strengths-based social work approach that starts with what a person already does well. She listens first, then helps set clear goals and small steps. Sessions focus on practical tools for coping, improving communication, and rebuilding confidence.

Her background is in social work and she brings five years of clinical experience to each meeting. That experience includes supporting people through motivation lulls, shame or guilt, and feelings of isolation. Hannah also addresses money and financial stress as it shows up in emotional life.

In sessions she emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person's own expertise about their life. She works to make plans that fit daily routines and real-world constraints. Clients can expect an approach that balances validation with actionable strategies.

Hannah lists women's issues among her focus areas and will work with people who want to address concerns tied to gendered expectations and roles. She offers sessions in English and practices in Tennessee. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Hannah draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and short-term change. One common approach she uses helps people build coping skills and manage cravings or urges related to addictions through step-by-step behavior planning and routine adjustments. Another approach centers on interpersonal skills training to improve communication and reduce repeated conflict, using exercises that practice new ways of speaking and listening.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Hannah asks about goals, life demands, and personal strengths, and then she tailors techniques to what feels most useful. Clients and therapist try methods, review progress, and adjust plans together as needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut down travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find video sessions let them use visual cues during skill practice, while other arrangements can be simpler when phone conversations are a better fit. Discussing preferences during the intake helps match the right format to your everyday life.
