Hi, I’m Hannah!
Trauma therapist in Pensacola and throughout Florida and Alabama
Your past is part of your story. It does not have to control your nervous system or your future.
I am a trauma therapist specializing in EMDR and Brainspotting intensives for adults navigating anxiety, complex trauma, religious trauma, medical trauma, and emotional burnout.
Many of my clients come to me after feeling stuck in traditional therapy. They are insightful. They understand their patterns. But the emotional charge is still there.
Through focused, immersive trauma intensives, we move beyond insight and into resolution.
Together, we untangle how past experiences are still shaping your present and create meaningful shifts that feel real in your body, not just logical in your mind.
I’m Hannah! A trauma therapist based in Pensacola, Florida, and the founder of Hello Calm. I specialize in EMDR and Brainspotting intensives for adults across Florida and Alabama who are ready for focused, accelerated healing.
I do not offer rushed 50-minute sessions stacked back to back.
I offer intentional, extended sessions designed for depth.
My work centers around EMDR intensives and Brainspotting because trauma does not heal through talking alone. It heals when the nervous system is given the space and structure to process what it has been holding.
Intensives allow us to:
• Stay with the memory long enough to truly resolve it
• Move through blocks without restarting each week
• Reduce the emotional whiplash of stop and go therapy
• Create meaningful shifts in days instead of months
Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck in anxiety, childhood trauma, complex trauma, religious trauma, medical trauma, or long standing patterns that have not shifted with traditional weekly therapy.
We work differently here.
We slow down enough to feel safe.
We go deep enough to create change.
And we move at a pace your nervous system can actually sustain.

If you are ready for focused, structured healing that goes beyond traditional weekly therapy, this space was created for you.
Therapy That Truly Sees You
I believe healing begins in a space where you feel deeply seen, safe, and understood. That is the foundation of my intensive work.
Trauma is not just a story you tell. It is something your nervous system holds. Through EMDR and Brainspotting intensives, we create the time, structure, and safety needed for real processing to happen.
Whether you are navigating childhood wounds, complex trauma, religious trauma, medical trauma, or long standing anxiety, I walk alongside you with steadiness and care. Not as someone who rushes the process, and not as someone who claims to have all the answers, but as a skilled guide helping you move through what feels stuck.
This work is collaborative, contained, and intentional.

I created Hello Calm Therapy because I believe trauma therapy should be intentional, structured, and effective.
Too many people spend months or years talking about the same pain without truly processing it. I wanted to build a practice centered around EMDR and Brainspotting intensives so clients could experience deeper healing in a shorter period of time.
My goal is not just symptom management.
It is resolution.When trauma is properly processed, you are not just coping better. You feel lighter, clearer, and more present in your life.
That is the work we do here.

An EMDR intensive is an extended, structured trauma therapy format designed to help you process more deeply in a shorter period of time. Instead of meeting for 50-minute sessions each week, we work together in longer, focused blocks of time or over one to three consecutive days.
This immersive approach allows us to stay with the target memory long enough to fully process it using EMDR therapy. There is no stop-and-start cycle, which often slows progress in traditional weekly therapy.
Clients seeking EMDR intensives in Pensacola, Florida and virtually across Florida and Alabama often choose this model because they want meaningful trauma resolution without stretching the work out over months or years.

Yes. EMDR intensives are highly effective for anxiety, complex trauma, childhood trauma, religious trauma, and chronic stress.
Anxiety is often rooted in unresolved experiences stored in the nervous system. EMDR therapy and Brainspotting help target those stored memories and body-based responses directly, rather than only addressing surface symptoms.
Many clients looking for anxiety therapy in Florida or trauma therapy in Alabama turn to EMDR intensives when they feel stuck in traditional talk therapy. By addressing the root cause, clients often experience reduced anxiety, improved emotional regulation, and a greater sense of internal calm.
-
Yes. Many clients travel to Pensacola, Florida for immersive EMDR and Brainspotting intensives.
Because intensives are concentrated over one to three days, they work well for individuals who prefer a focused, retreat-like experience rather than ongoing weekly appointments. Traveling for trauma therapy can also create space away from daily stressors, allowing for deeper processing.
If you are considering traveling for an EMDR intensive in Florida, you simply need to be physically located in Florida during our sessions. I also work virtually with clients located anywhere in Florida and Alabama.
