About Hana
Hana Yin is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 16 years of clinical experience in Hawaii. She creates a welcoming, affirming space where people can talk about what matters to them. Sessions focus on practical steps and emotional understanding rather than labels.
Hana uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand strong feelings and how those feelings affect relationships and daily life. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods to help clients name values, accept difficult thoughts, and take small steps toward change.
Background and approach

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD, intimacy-related issues, sleeping problems, anger, and self-esteem. She supports people navigating career shifts, caregiving strain, and major life changes.
She also works with issues connected to attachment, body image, blended family concerns, and chronic health conditions. Hana offers sessions in English and Mandarin and accepts international clients. Treatment is collaborative: she listens first, then helps set goals and practical steps.
Her style is interactive and grounded, with a focus on feeling-based work and real-world coping strategies. People seeking online options can connect by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How emotion-focused and values-based work fits online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions and how those emotions shape behavior and relationships. It can be especially useful for understanding attachment patterns and feeling-based responses that show up in daily life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. ACT is practical for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and helps people build more supported ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to each person's needs and goals. Sessions start with listening and assessment, then a shared plan is created and adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, notes between sessions, or people who prefer typing over speaking. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, travel, or caregiving responsibilities while keeping the focus on emotional processing and real-life change.
