Hannah Peterson, LCSW

I work with teens (15+), adults, and couples who can love deeply but don’t always feel met in return. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who find themselves overfunctioning in relationships, carrying emotional weight alone, or repeating patterns that leave them unseen or depleted. Therapy with me centers on relational repair, healing attachment wounds, integrating heartbreak, and building connection rooted in reciprocity rather than self-abandonment. Together, we explore how early experiences, family dynamics, and past ruptures shape present patterns, and how those patterns can shift. My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and experiential. I integrate EMDR, IFS, somatic therapy, and attachment-based work to support deeper emotional processing and lasting change. Rather than offering quick coping tools alone, I focus on helping you feel more secure within yourself and steadier in connection with others. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I incorporate creative and embodied practices when helpful. I’ve facilitated mindfulness walks, nature-based groups, and experiential sessions that support nervous system regulation and insight, complementing in-office work. Clients often describe our work as warm, collaborative, and grounded. I bring steadiness, curiosity, and thoughtful challenge, creating space where all parts of you are welcome and where healing unfolds at a sustainable pace.
