About Hana
ACA counsellor Hana Blahova has six years of experience in Australia working with stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, trauma and abuse, and low self esteem. She uses practical talk-based methods to help people manage life changes, build confidence, and find clearer direction. Hana writes plainly and encourages people to take the first step toward support.
Hana works from a belief that each person knows their story best. She focuses on small, doable steps that build on strengths. Conversations centre on what is most pressing for the client and what can change in day-to-day life.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. She also uses Client-Centred and Narrative methods to keep the person’s perspective central, and mindfulness practices to support grounding and attention.
Typical sessions involve talking through current problems and testing practical strategies. Hana helps people set short goals, rehearse new responses, and reflect on what worked between sessions. She pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions, especially around attachment and caregiving roles.
People who come to Hana often bring concerns about career direction, coping after trauma, or the strain of parenting and caregiving. Her work includes supporting recovery from post-traumatic stress and strengthening self-love and life purpose. She asks straightforward questions and helps clients make clear plans for what comes next.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) here focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It helps with anxiety, stress and questions about life purpose by asking what matters and testing small committed actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and to try different responses, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness practices help people stay present and reduce reactivity. Simple exercises support calmer attention and can be paired with ACT and CBT tools for managing stress or caregiver strain. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and choose methods together. Sessions are collaborative and adjust over time as needs change. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a routine, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Discuss formats and timing during the matching step so sessions fit everyday life.Sheet 3
