Welcome!
Are you a therapist, intern, or mental health-curious human who cares deeply about healing, self-awareness, and creating a more compassionate relationship with yourself?
Then you’re in the right place.
I’m Hanna—a licensed therapist, content creator, and author of My Inner Critic and Me. I’ve spent the past 8+ years working with trauma, anxiety, and inner critics in the therapy room… and now, I’m showing up here to share what I’ve learned along the way.
Substack felt like the right home for this: a space that allows me to write freely, offer valuable tools, and create a community of fellow humans who want to grow—personally and professionally.
This space is for:
Anyone doing the slow, sacred work of healing their relationship with themselves
Therapists who want grounded, honest conversations about the behind-the-scenes of our work
Therapy interns who are hungry for real-world insights and permission to not be perfect
Here’s what you’ll find:
Resources I’ve gathered over 8 years of being that therapist who bookmarks everything and loves to share it
Weekly mental health content rooted in trauma-informed care, neuroscience, and real-life compassion
Video, audio, and written posts on topics that often come up in the therapy room—like anxiety, emotion regulation, coping skills, trauma, nervous system health, inner critics, attachment, boundaries, and those big existential life questions
Thoughtful reflections on being a human in the helping profession (or just a human trying to heal)
Some of it will be free, and some of it will live behind the paywall—because (let’s be honest) I’m building toward sustainable income doing work that aligns with my purpose. Your support not only means the world to me, but also allows me to keep showing up in this space! I’m grateful for the opportunity to grow, learn, and connect with you in this space.
So, whether you’re here to learn, heal, grow your own newsletter, or just not feel so alone in this work—welcome.
You don’t have to do it all perfectly. You just have to keep showing up.
And I’m really glad you’re here.
— Hanna
