Hana Crnovrsanin is a Licensed Social Worker in Illinois. She has a MA in Social Work from The University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work and a BA in Sociology and Criminal Justice from North Park University. Hana has personally experienced a variety of difficult life circumstances and conditions that placed her in a position to understand, validate, and create a safe space for individuals to not only express their current life stressors but to also have them understood. Hana enjoys working with children, adolescents, and young adults that are seeking support in emotion regulation and have a desire to learn how past lived experiences impact how they show up in the world currently. Hana’s primary goal in therapy, is to help clients learn how their past influences their present and help to develop skills to minimize the impact of these past experiences, through trauma-informed care, and evidence-based trauma focused therapeutic modalities. Hana also enjoys aiding clients in behavioral analysis, and understanding the impact of how cognitions can further induce mental and emotional suffering, through therapeutic modalities such as CBT and DBT. Due to her own cultural and ethnic background and lived experiences in a number of different countries, Hana would also say that she is unique in being able to accommodate a variety of different backgrounds and identities, and through her experiences, has learned how to value, respect, and engage with individuals of all different paths of life.
