About Hana

LMHC and LPCC licensed in New York, Hana Kuc has 15 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and motivation. She practices approaches that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Motivational Interviewing. Hana offers care in English and also speaks Czech and Slovak.

Hana takes a straightforward, step-by-step approach. She helps people face fears gradually and breaks larger problems into small, doable steps. Sessions focus on shifting rigid beliefs and unhelpful habits so clients can solve problems more easily and reduce symptoms like procrastination, burnout, and self-blame.

She commonly works with people who have perfectionistic tendencies, traumatic histories, or patterns of self-neglect. That can look like addressing procrastination, overwork, substance use, or difficulty with intimacy and relationships. Hana uses practical exercises and reflective conversation to uncover core fears and move toward change.

Her work draws on behavioral strategies, memory-based trauma processing, and motivational techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change thoughts and behaviors. EMDR is used to process traumatic memories. Motivational Interviewing supports readiness to change.

Clients can expect clear goals, homework when useful, and a pace set by their needs. Sessions aim to create more flexible thinking and healthier habits over time. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and formats.

How Hana's approaches translate to remote work

Hana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT often includes practical exercises and short tasks to practice between sessions, which can be done from day-to-day life. EMDR focuses on processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional hold; it involves guided attention and memory work that aims to reduce trauma reactions over time.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Hana will talk through goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, and then suggest options. That collaborative process helps set short-term goals and decide whether CBT, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, or a mix is the right next step.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful for fitting therapy around work, school, or caregiving by saving travel time and allowing appointments during shorter breaks. Phone sessions can use less bandwidth and be a simpler check-in when video is not practical. Online work can support homework review, behavioral experiments, and motivation-focused conversations without requiring an in-person visit.
