I’m Hannah Strege, MSW, LCSW, and the owner of Wonderfully Made Counseling, PLLC, where I provide compassionate, individualized therapy for children, adolescents, adults, and families. I earned my Master of Social Work from Baylor University and have experience providing behavioral health care within pediatric primary care.

My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, adoption, embryo adoption, and concerns related to IVF and assisted reproduction. I have a particular passion for supporting adoptees, adoptive families, and individuals navigating the complex emotions, relationships, identity questions, and experiences that can accompany adoption and reproductive technologies.

I am also the Founder and CEO of Wonderfully Made Adoption Services International, a nonprofit dedicated to adoption education, advocacy, consultation, and support. My nonprofit work and clinical practice are separate, but both reflect my commitment to approaching adoption and family formation with compassion, ethical consideration, and a child centered perspective.

I believe every person has inherent dignity and a story worthy of being heard. My goal as a therapist is to create a space where clients feel genuinely known, respected, and supported as they pursue healing and meaningful change.

Therapist

I work with adults who want more from life, their relationships, or themselves but feel stuck getting there, overwhelmed, or like they should be further along. I support clients navigating transitions, stress or dissatisfaction with life, health or work, sleep concerns, communication and boundary issues, dating and relationship challenges, and neurodivergence including ADHD and autism. I’m straightforward, relatable, and down to earth, with room for humor and honest conversation. As a naturalized U.S. citizen from Germany, I also bring personal understanding of adapting to a new culture and enjoy working with immigrants and first-generation Americans navigating life between cultures.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor serving adults across Colorado.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Littleton, CO


My goal is to provide you with a safe, emotional space where you will feel comfortable, relaxed and know that you are being heard. I want you to be able to express yourself freely without any fear of judgement. Healing takes place when you are able to be open, honest and vulnerable. Throughout my practice, it has been an honor to help facilitate extraordinary transformation in the lives of my clients. Believe me when I say that, “Anything is possible,” as I have witnessed my clients overcome trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and hardcore drug addiction.


Often, our feelings of shame, hurt and fear rob us of the opportunity to experience true joy and fulfillment in our lives. Do you find yourself running from these feelings or always fighting against them? Instead, I can help you embrace them and work through them. It is through this process of transformation where you learn to find acceptance, meaning

and purpose in your life. This leads to living with self-authenticity, and this is when you experience true joy and fulfillment. I look forward to being your catalyst for change. Together, we will take this journey and progress at your own pace. I encourage you to take the first step and make an appointment. Your life is worth it!

Do you find yourself constantly thinking, analyzing, or trying to make sense of everything? Maybe you replay conversations, anticipate every possible outcome, or search for the "right" answer before making a decision. You may understand yourself well on an intellectual level, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. I provide therapy for teens, young adults, adults, and educators—including teachers, school counselors, and other school staff—who are navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult experiences, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of daily life.

I’m a licensed mental health therapist who works with adolescents & adults! I believe therapy should feel empowering, collaborative, and genuinely supportive.

My approach is warm, open-minded, & nonjudgmental. I want you to feel safe being your full self in session, and I aim to meet you where you are while helping you grow in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable!

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Purdue University and my Master’s degree in Social Work from IUPUI, with a focus on addiction and mental health. My professional background includes two years in an outpatient mental health setting and one year working in residential treatment for substance use disorders. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how complex mental health can be—and how important it is to treat the whole person, not just symptoms.

I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, emotional regulation difficulties, and life transitions. I enjoy helping clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. My style is collaborative and flexible, and I like to be creative in sessions when it’s helpful—whether that’s through reflective exercises, visual tools, or thinking outside the box to help things “click.”

Here's the honest truth: the license on my wall is fresh. The decade of experience behind it is very much not.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 10 years of practicing psychotherapy, and I specialize in the kind of work that tends to find people in the middle of life asking big questions — Who am I now? Is this what I signed up for? Why is my anxiety running the show?

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Colorado

Searching for therapists in Colorado means choosing from a wide range of licensed therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual care. If you’re looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

Location and scheduling matter when comparing Colorado therapists. Someone in Denver may have access to many nearby offices, while someone in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, or a mountain or rural community may want to include virtual sessions in their search. Some people prefer meeting in a therapist’s office, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexibility. As you narrow your options, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.

The cost of therapy in Colorado can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps by verifying your insurance, showing estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and connecting you with licensed therapists who are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your location and plan as you search — making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and has availability.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
