About Hana
Hana Yin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Hawaii with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, and codependency concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Mandarin and she accepts international clients.
Hana uses a client-centered approach that focuses on how people show up in their relationships and day-to-day lives. She pays attention to attachment patterns and to thoughts and behaviors that keep people stuck. In practical terms this means talking through what’s happening, noticing what’s hard to say, and trying new ways of responding in small steps.
Her work addresses intimacy-related problems, boundaries, and the fallout from living around someone else’s moods or substance use. She also helps with sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, and coping with life changes. Codependency appears among the concerns she lists and is treated alongside related issues like attachment and communication struggles.
Hana draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Those approaches guide practical tools such as values-based choices, skill building for emotion regulation, and reshaping unhelpful thinking. Sessions aim to build clearer boundaries and steadier responses rather than promise specific outcomes.
Clients can expect straightforward, goal-focused work that emphasizes what they want to change and how to make small, sustainable shifts. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site’s online therapy options.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Hana commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps consistent with their values, which can be useful when someone keeps putting others first. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, helpful for people who struggle with boundaries or codependent habits. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person’s perspective and priorities, so sessions focus on what the client notices and wants to change.Finding the best approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to try methods that fit the client’s goals and preferences. That means checking in about what helps, adapting techniques, and pacing the work to what the person can manage in daily life.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. In practice, this can help someone test boundary skills between sessions or practice new ways of communicating without rearranging an entire day.
