Ellen Hanna, LPC

Hi, I’m Ellen, and if you’re reading this, I want to start by saying you’re not alone.

Whatever brought you here, stress, sadness, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or just feeling stuck, I want you to know there’s no “right” way to start. Sometimes we just know we don’t want to feel this way anymore. My job is to help you feel safe, seen, and supported as we explore what’s going on beneath the surface and figure out how to move forward in a healthier way.

With over 25 years of experience in mental health, I’ve worked in just about every setting you can imagine—psychiatric hospitals, crisis teams, addiction recovery, trauma centers, and programs for both civilians and military families. I bring all of that to our work together, but more than anything, I bring the belief that you deserve a space where you can be your full, unfiltered self.

My style is honest, relational, and down-to-earth. I believe in using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy, but I also believe in the healing power of humor and connection. Therapy doesn’t have to be stiff or clinical. It can feel real, human, and even a little lighter when we need it to.

Whether you’re dealing with depression, PTSD, grief, addiction, OCD, or relationship challenges, we’ll work at your pace, in a way that fits your life. I see individuals, couples, and families, both in person at our Spring, TX location and virtually with clients all over Texas.

If you’re ready to stop carrying it all on your own, I’d be honored to walk with you as you take this next step. Therapy isn’t about having it all figured out, it’s about giving yourself permission to begin.
