About Hana

Hana Yin is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 16 years of clinical experience in Hawaii. She creates an affirming space where people can name what’s hard and take small steps toward feeling better. Her work emphasizes respect, steady listening, and practical tools for everyday life.

Hana uses approaches that center the person’s experience and build skills for managing stress and relationships. She helps people who are dealing with anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, addiction concerns, ADHD, sleep problems, anger, career stress, and self esteem struggles. She also supports those facing life changes, caregiver strain, and compassion fatigue.

In sessions she combines acceptance-based ideas with cognitive and skills work to reduce distress and increase flexibility. Attachment-based perspectives guide conversations about closeness, boundaries, and trust. The style is collaborative and down-to-earth - clients set goals and Hanna helps map practical steps toward them.

Hana has worked with diverse concerns across many settings over her career. She offers therapy in English and Mandarin, and she accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and the practice uses a cancelable subscription model for sessions.

How Hana’s Approaches Guide Online Work

Hana uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationship patterns shape trust, closeness, and boundaries. These approaches are useful for anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma recovery, and building self esteem.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Hana collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful for their goals and preferences. She adjusts pacing, exercises, and homework based on individual needs so the plan fits real life.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote therapy helps fit sessions into busy schedules, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and makes it easier to continue care during life transitions. Online work can also let clients try skill practice and grounding techniques in the places they live and work, while the therapist helps adapt strategies to each person’s daily routines.
