About Hana

Hana Kuc is a licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of clinical experience. She practices in New York and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and related concerns. Her style is direct but warm, aimed at helping people take small steps toward feeling better.

Hana blends practical strategies with attention to personal values. She uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR to help people change unhelpful thoughts and process difficult memories.

Background and approach

She also draws on motivational interviewing to build momentum for change when people feel stuck. Sessions focus on clear goals and doable actions. Hana often helps clients break big problems into manageable steps.

She encourages gentleness with setbacks while pushing for steady progress toward concrete changes. People who come to her often struggle with perfectionism, burnout, procrastination, or self-blame after traumatic experiences. She helps them shift rigid beliefs and rehearse alternative ways of thinking and behaving.

That work frees up energy for problem solving and everyday functioning. Hana speaks English, Czech, and Slovak. She supports issues that include relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, intimacy concerns, sleeping problems, ADHD, and first responder issues.

Her approach balances practical techniques with a calm, hopeful presence.

Approaches Hana names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Hana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change patterns like procrastination. EMDR helps people work through distressing memories and trauma by moving toward less upsetting ways of remembering those events.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to build motivation and clarify goals when change feels difficult. Hana treats approach selection as a collaborative process. Together the client and therapist decide which methods to try based on current needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction from wherever they are. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or lower-intensity work between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, or unpredictable schedules while using the approaches above to address trauma, anxiety, and motivation.
