She received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Loyola University Chicago in 2000 and completed an internship and postdoctoral work at Harvard Medical School (1999-2001, 2002-2003). Dr. Hansen has had a psychotherapy practice since 2001 and teaches and researches in the intersection of psychological agency, emotion, and religion/spirituality. Her psychotherapy work is informed by mindfulness and self-compassion practices, EFT, DBT, psychodynamic, IFS, trauma informed therapy approaches and spiritually oriented psychotherapies. She works with a variety of issues (though this list is not exhaustive): couples and family therapy, grief work, anxiety and depression, emotion focused work, pre-marital work, parenting, divorce, betrayal trauma, spiritual/religious concerns, trauma recovery and womens health concerns. She recently served as the Editor for Issues in Religion and Psychotherapy (https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/irp/). She has also served on the AMCAP board and as the Vice President of AMCAP.
