Getting to know James Hanna

James Hanna, LCSW, works primarily with individuals and couples navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and compulsive sexual behaviors. His clients often seek a compassionate, non-judgmental space where they can explore these complex issues and work toward lasting healing and growth. James’s approach integrates evidence-based modalities tailored to each client’s unique needs. As an EMDR-certified therapist, he uses this powerful trauma-healing tool alongside Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). He is also a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Candidate (CSAT-C) through IITAP, bringing specialized expertise and a proven treatment system for addressing out-of-control sexual behaviors and their emotional roots. His practice is gender-affirming, sex- and body-positive, and LGBTQIA+ inclusive. He offers online sessions for clients in New York and Connecticut, with flexible scheduling to meet their needs.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Starting therapy with someone new can feel like a big step, especially if you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin. You don’t need to have all the answers—just a willingness to explore what’s been difficult and a curiosity about what healing might look like for you. In our work together, we’ll focus on what’s most important to you. I’ll take time to understand your experiences, priorities, and the changes you’re looking for, so our work stays focused and meaningful. If you're considering therapy and have questions about the process, I invite you to reach out.
