You’re always there
for others. But who
holds space for you?
Hi, I’m Hannah Peirce, a Registered Social Worker offering virtual therapy for adults in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. I support individuals navigating anxiety, perfectionism, and the part of themselves that’s always questioning if they’re doing enough — or if they are enough.

Are you covered by insurance?Insurance providers may cover psychotherapy fees either fully or partially, depending on the specifics of your extended health insurance plan. To determine your coverage, it’s helpful to ask your insurer the following questions: Does my plan include mental health benefits? How much is covered for psychotherapy services provided by a Registered Social Worker (RSW)? I provide receipts after each session, which you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
-
How do I get started?Getting started is simple. Reach out to schedule a free 20-minute consultation via phone or video call. This initial consultation gives us the opportunity to connect and allows you to share what brings you to therapy. It’s also a chance for me to answer any questions you have to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in finding the right therapist. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or emotional well-being, this consultation can help us determine how best to move forward.

What kind of therapy do you offer?I provide individual psychotherapy for adults, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). My approach is rooted in the warmth and support of Person-Centered Therapy, creating a space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns of relating at your own pace. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by their emotions or struggle to connect with them, often second-guessing their needs or reactions. You may have received messages about which emotions are ‘acceptable’ and which should be hidden, making it difficult to trust your own inner experiences. In therapy, we’ll work together to untangle these patterns, helping you develop a more affirming and intuitive relationship with your emotions—where feelings serve as meaningful signals rather than sources of distress or confusion. I also work with individuals who find social interactions complex or draining, whether due to differences in emotional processing, communication styles, or sensitivity to their environment. My approach is flexible and responsive, helping clients better understand their experiences and develop strategies that align with their needs, values, and way of engaging with the world.

What is virtual psychotherapy?Virtual psychotherapy is the process of delivering therapy sessions online through secure video conferencing. I use NousTalk, a PHIPA-compliant platform with encrypted connections to ensure privacy and confidentiality. This virtual approach allows clients to receive professional therapy from the comfort of their own homes, making it more convenient and accessible for individuals in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or other challenges, virtual therapy offers a flexible and secure way to work towards mental wellness.

What is your availability?I am typically available for sessions from Tuesday to Friday, between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM EST/EDT. I offer daytime appointments to support those who prefer sessions during working hours or quieter moments of the day.

Areas of Focus
Understanding Your Emotions
You may struggle to recognize or trust your emotions, feeling disconnected or overwhelmed by them. Perhaps you've been told you're "too sensitive" or find it hard to name what you're feeling. Therapy can help you build a stronger relationship with your emotions, seeing them as valuable signals rather than sources of distress or confusion.
Navigating Social Relationships
Perhaps you’ve always felt a little different—more emotionally attuned or sensitive to what’s happening around you, even when others don’t seem to notice. This kind of sensitivity can be a strength, but it can also make social relationships feel complex—bringing up questions about where you fit or how to connect in ways that feel true to you. You may carry a longing for deeper connection, paired with uncertainty about how or where that connection might be found.
​
Therapy can offer a space to explore these experiences, make sense of your sensitivity, and find ways of relating that feel more grounded, genuine, and sustaining.
Breaking Cycles of Self-Doubt
Many of my clients grapple with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or a harsh inner critic that leaves them second-guessing themselves. You might feel a constant pressure to “get things right,” and find it difficult to offer yourself the same understanding you extend to others.
​
Therapy can help you recognize and shift these patterns—so you can begin to build self-trust, develop a more compassionate inner voice, and move toward a gentler, more supportive way of relating to yourself.
It can also help you reconnect with and appreciate the strengths and qualities that make you uniquely you.
My Approach to Therapy
I support clients navigating anxiety, perfectionism, and lingering feelings of shame or self-doubt.
​
In our work, we make space for what’s been hard to feel, understand long-standing patterns, and begin relating to yourself with more compassion and a clearer sense of who you are and what matters to you.
​
I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and psychodynamic approaches, always tailored to what resonates with you.​
Together, we might explore:
• Emotions you've learned to suppress or override
• How to set boundaries without guilt
• The deeper roots of self-doubt
• What it means to feel more grounded and whole
