Work with Hana Kuc - BetterHelp Online Therapist

About me

I am licensed in New York with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence.
I am trained in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, EMDR and my practice also includes interventions from Gestalt, Person-centered, Internal Family Systems, and other therapy approaches. I believe that when addressing fears and anxieties, the most effective approach is to work toward facing those fears a little bit at a time with tenderness, patience, acceptance, and imagination. I often see clients work through their problems and experience relief from symptoms after getting to the bottom of their core fear. In my practice, I also see a lot of individuals with perfectionistic styles, traumatic backgrounds, and self-neglect, that result in procrastination or overwork, burnout, and self-blame. I am here to support and empower you to change these symptoms by shifting to flexible attitudes and beliefs, which frees up room for problem-solving and behavior change.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Hana Kuc. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Based off of the experience I have with Hana, she is very supportive and knowledgable and a very good listener. I look forward to continuing to work with her.

Hana is a compassionate highly skilled therapist who intuitively knows how to best support her clients (from my experience). She listened and offered multiple ways to help me. I highly recommend Hana!

Hana Kuc Has Been Great. She Remebers Everything We Have Talked About, And Genuinely Seems To Care. Just About Any Exercise She Has Suggested Has Either Helped, Or I've Seen How They Can Eventually Be Beneficial.

Hana honestly is the best! When we have our sessions I feel like I’m talking to a person who looks at me as a person and not just some client. She’s helped me try and keep my focus on important things and I can’t thank her enough for being there and helping me through so much
