Therapists in Tyler, TX

You are tired of telling people you are "fine, okay, good" when you really aren't. Maybe you can't find the words to describe what you are feeling or maybe you don't think anyone will understand.

Hi! My name is Emilie Hanna and I graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington with a master's degree in social work. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work, working under the supervision of Russell Bailiff, LCSW-S. I provide counseling in person in Tyler, TX along with teletherapy for individuals in Texas. I have worked closely with pre-teens, teens, and young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relational troubles, grief, and big life transitions.

Seeking help for life’s struggles is not an easy task especially when it requires our emotional exposure. I believe it takes a very courageous person to seek help and be vulnerable. If this is you, I want to congratulate you! I consider it an honor and a big privilege to walk beside my clients who are facing hardships in life. I believe therapy can be extremely helpful when the client is approached with welcoming, comforting and the nonjudgmental heart of a therapist.

My ideal client is someone who is interested in investing in themselves. When I sense they are working clients who are passionate about getting into the deeper details: to learn that they are truly and genuinely worthy of love and are worth great value. I feel so excited to relate with them, and share stories, to understand their story.

Life can be difficult—full of struggles, challenges, changes, and the unexpected. We keep these events in our minds, whether at the front to consciously influence all of our decisions, or packed away in a box in a corner, to be dealt with ‘in the future’. When your box begins to overflow or you realize that it is time to open it, I’m here to help you unpack, sort, and re-pack the box. My goal is to help you regain control of the box, so that the box no longer controls you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor. I offer counseling services and professional supervision in Tyler, TX and surrounding areas. Do you often feel anxious and overthink situations? You want to feel more at peace in your life and around others. Or maybe you feel like you are never perfect enough, despite your best efforts? Constant worry about what others think of you keeps you up at night. Do you stay really busy to avoid your feelings of inadequacy or sadness? Does self-doubt creep into your mind in spite of trying to build confidence within yourself? If this resonates with you, I get it.

I see clients both virtually and in person; and in our work together, you will create or reconnect with a life worth living. You will come to see emotions - even the painful emotions of anger, sadness and guilt - as signals that something needs your attention rather than something to be avoided. You will gain an understanding of who you are and how you are, which will facilitate personal changes you may want to make or help you navigate challenges you are facing. And maybe, most importantly, you will strengthen your relationship with yourself and with others.

I welcome people from different backgrounds and political leanings, unique religious or spiritual beliefs, all kinds of relationship dynamics/combinations, stressful careers, and traumatic experiences. The types that have learned how to “fake it till you make it”. The survivor living off of caffeine and sheer determination. The tired, overlooked and underappreciated human being still carrying the baggage of their last relationship, tough childhood or draining job. Fighters who have lost their spark, but are somehow able to keep everyone else’s flame burning. I see you struggling… silently slipping below the surface. I want to help.

Do you find yourself in the middle of what seems like an unsolvable conflict? Sometimes, we all need a road map to find our way back home to ourselves and each other. Solid connections with those you love are possible. Let me help you reconnect, repair from deep wounds and find peace. Marriage counseling, couple counseling and family therapy are areas I enjoy, along with helping navigate addiction and its effects on loved ones.

No one in life is perfect, including me! Being able to identify, relate and empathize with you as my patient is probably one of my greatest strengths. The special relationship formed between you and I, ensuring trust, confidence, and ability to truly work through the issues are of utmost importance. I believe everyone has something to work through in their lives. By providing evidence based therapy and unconditional positive regard, I have been very effective in my treatment history and am open to us having a two way therapeutic relationship with feedback and growth through this process.

If you are having difficulty adjusting, letting go, or starting again there is hope. Identifying barriers and setting goals that will transition you into the next chapter of your life.

I love helping adults from all stages and walks of life to understand the things that are holding them back in order to find ways through them. After recognizing underlying barriers, we can work towards fully realizing your strengths and adjusting certain behaviors and thoughts to see things and be yourself in a healthier way. In our first session together, we'll complete an assessment focused on exploring your past and present, current challenges and strengths, and specific problems that you hope to overcome. We'll discuss your specific goals for counseling as well as my recommendations for treatment to move towards those goals.

My goal is to help my clients find health and healing through introspection and understanding of their history and making active change in their lives.
