Hannah Lenertz, MPS, LPCC & LADC
Psychotherapist
Clinical experience in treating individuals and groups, with issues related to grief, anger, depression, anxiety, relationships, co-occurring disorders, and trauma.
My Story
Since I was young, I knew I wanted a helping career where I could work with people. While what this meant changed a few times, I always returned to mental health. Once I started my undergraduate psychology courses, and began working in the field, I knew I found the right fit for me. My role in the mental health field has changed a few times from direct care staff in residential homes, to ARMHS, to LADC group therapy, to psychotherapy. Each experience has helped me to learn about mental health, the intricacies of individuals, the importance of meeting an individual where they are at, and how to incorporate these into treatment approaches.
Professional Experience
In therapy, I hope to meet you where you are at to work together toward change and healing. I primarily have training in Cognitive Behavioral therapy and Person-Centered Therapy, but I find that I tend to use an eclectic approach to reflect on the individual’s unique needs.
I provide psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, individuals and groups. Through these, I have experience in working with severe and persistent mental illness, grief and loss, anger, co-occurring disorders, life changes, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationships, and self-esteem.

Clinician Specialties
Counseling for Anxiety
Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? Have you already tried therapy but found it ineffective?
If this sounds like you, Mindfully Healing can help. Our practice offers the most effective forms of treatment, to get relief from the anxiety that you deserve.
When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms to the problem.
Therapy for Depression
Are you feeling hopeless, isolated and not your usual self? You might be feeling depressed or deep despair.
Counseling for Trauma
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.
While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.
Online Counseling
Mindfully Healing clinicians are now offering video telehealth therapy services to both new and established clients.
Grief & Bereavement Counseling
Bereavement and grief aren’t light-hearted topics. Bereavement refers to the process of recovering from the death of a loved one, and grief is a reaction for any form of loss. Both encompass a wide range of emotions such as fear, anger and deep, deep sadness.
The process of adapting to a loss can dramatically change from person to person, depending on his or her background, beliefs, relationship to the person who’s passed, and other factors.
Common symptoms of grief can be physical, emotional or social.
"Mindfully Healing embraces a personal growth based model unlike a problem or deficiency based model of traditional mental health... Our clients experience this during their first session."
Services and Pricing
Why Private Pay is Beneficial for Some Clients?
- Insurance does not cover relational difficulties such as couples and family therapy, they require a DSM-V diagnosis for one of the members. As a fee-for-service provider, I do not have to give you a mental health diagnosis.
- Mental health diagnoses can follow you and be documented on health records and can result in affecting life insurance applications, health insurance applications and other benefits or services.
- Together, we can determine how many times we meet instead of the insurance company making that decision.
- Since a treatment plan, notes and billing information are not being released to an insurance company, a greater amount of confidentiality is in place for you.
