About Steven
Steven Hahne is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with three years of counseling experience. He works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, substance concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, and guilt and shame. He also addresses issues such as parenting, career changes, sleep problems, and young adult challenges.
Steven uses down-to-earth conversation and practical strategies in sessions. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thinking and experiment with different responses. For trauma-related concerns he integrates trauma-focused work to address painful memories and reactions.
Sessions are focused and goal-oriented while remaining flexible to each person's situation. Steven listens for patterns around control, communication, jealousy, and shame, and then works with clients to try new approaches to those patterns. He pays attention to how daily habits and thinking influence mood and relationships.
People often come for help after a breakup, a fight that won’t end, or when past hurt keeps resurfacing. Steven also supports fathers facing role changes, people navigating divorce or separation, and those coping with panic, postpartum depression, or substance challenges. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
Practical next steps are simple: complete the short matching questionnaire, pick a time, and begin with a first session to identify goals. Steven aims to work collaboratively so clients can notice small changes that matter day to day.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Steven commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test smaller behavioral changes that can relieve anxiety, shame, or low mood. He also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness. For trauma-related concerns he uses trauma-focused methods to address upsetting memories and the ways they affect daily life.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Steven treats the choice of approach as collaborative and will help figure out what fits a person's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions begin with practical goals and then adapt the methods used as those goals evolve.
