Professional statement

James Hanna, LCSW, works 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), 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.

I welcome clients of all backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences, and I’m committed to creating a respectful, inclusive, and affirming environment where you can feel safe, supported, and truly seen.

If you have any questions before starting, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to working with you.
