Welcome to Hanhan Wellness. Nicole Hanhan, LCSW is a therapist licensed in California (LCSW-115559) and Arizona (LCSW-18677). Her passion lies in honoring each individual's unique identity. Her therapeutic style is warm, accepting, and direct. She believes that through self-reflection, clients can uncover the roots of their emotional suffering and embark on a journey of healing.
Therapy, at its core, is a collaborative conversation where therapist and client work together to deepen understanding of personal identity, needs, and life experiences. She holds the belief that therapy can address current pain and explore past experiences, fostering healing for parts of you that have been neglected, abused, or mistreated.
Because we are wounded in relationships, we must heal in relationships. It is through our early relationships that we first learn about ourselves and develop our understanding of the world. Relationships can both wound, and heal, and we can repeat unconscious relational patterns unless it is brought into our awareness. This is why Nicole believes in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship and the importance of a collaborative approach, in which both therapist and client are co-participants in transformation.
