REGISTERED PSYCHOTHERAPIST | LONDON, ONTARIO

Hannah Steyaert, Registered Psychotherapist

Psychodynamic therapy for anxiety, relationships and recurring emotional patterns.

Hi, I’m Hannah. I work with teens and adults, and I have a particular interest in helping young adults navigate anxiety, stress and relationships, especially when familiar patterns keep showing up.

My approach is curious, empathetic and guided by your comfort level. We can explore what you are experiencing, what may be shaping those patterns and what might help you respond differently.

Could we be a good fit?

You might be looking for therapy because something does not feel quite right, even if it is hard to explain. Or perhaps you understand a pattern but find yourself falling back into it.

I commonly support people who are navigating:

  • Anxiety, stress or persistent overthinking
  • Relationship difficulties or familiar patterns with others
  • Depression, low mood or feeling emotionally stuck
  • Difficulty expressing emotions or setting boundaries
  • The lasting impact of earlier experiences
  • Life transitions, uncertainty or questions about identity

I see teens and adults, including young adults, and also work with couples and families. We can start with what has been happening in your life and discuss the kind of therapy that may fit.

What therapy with me is like

Sessions give you time to speak openly about what is happening in your life. I listen carefully, ask questions and help you notice connections that may be difficult to see on your own.

We might explore your relationships, emotional reactions or earlier experiences, always considering what is most relevant to you now. We work at a pace that feels manageable and keep your goals in view.

For example, we might talk about a conversation you keep replaying and what made it feel so difficult. We would not need to reach an answer right away. Sometimes noticing why a reaction feels familiar is a helpful starting point.

My therapeutic approach

My primary approach is psychodynamic therapy. It gives us room to explore the emotions, experiences and relationship patterns that may influence how you feel or respond today. We can look at your past where it matters, while keeping your present concerns and goals at the centre of our work.

This way of working may be useful when familiar emotional reactions, relationship difficulties or self-doubt continue to return, even after you have tried to change them.

Other approaches I may draw from

Depending on your goals, I may also draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Attachment-Based Therapy. These approaches can offer different ways to build skills, work with difficult thoughts or understand relationships.

We can talk through which approach, or combination of approaches, makes sense for your needs. You do not have to figure that out before contacting me.
