About Hannah
Hannah Keefer is a Tennessee-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with five years of professional experience. She works with people facing addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Hannah also addresses compassion fatigue and issues around guilt and shame as part of her practice.
She takes a strengths-based stance rooted in social work training. That means she looks for what already helps a person cope and builds from there. Sessions are collaborative and focused on practical steps rather than abstract labels.
In the room she listens for how guilt or shame shows up in daily life. Conversations often focus on specific behaviors, patterns in relationships, and moments that feel stuck. She helps people talk through motivation, money concerns, and isolation without making moral judgments.
Hannah draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide short-term and longer-term work. She helps clients set clear goals and notices small changes that lead to different choices. Work can include improving communication, thinking through forgiveness, and strengthening self-regard.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-focused. Sessions emphasize clear next steps and skills people can try between meetings. People in Tennessee who speak English can follow the process she describes and use the subscription model for sessions.
To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location.
Evidence-based approaches for guilt and relationship work
Hannah uses several evidence-based therapeutic techniques in practical ways. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing it into more balanced thinking. This helps when guilt or shame spins into harsh self-judgment and lowers motivation.A second approach emphasizes skills for clearer communication. Learning how to state needs, set boundaries, and talk about financial or relationship tensions can reduce repeated conflicts and isolation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hannah will review how a technique fits your needs, goals, and preferences and make adjustments together. Sessions are collaborative and aim to match strategies to what you want to change.
