welcome happy camper!
Hi, I’m Hannah
If you’re here, it’s probably because you know something needs to shift.
Maybe you’re watching your child struggle with big emotions and you’re not sure how to help.
Perhaps you feel like you’ve lost your own playful, creative spark somewhere between the school run and bedtime, and you’re ready to find it again.
Maybe you’re tired of the same old arguments, or you’re carrying the weight of breaking painful family patterns for the next generation.
Whatever brings you to this page, please hear me when I say:
You are not alone in this, and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself.
I deeply respect the strength it takes to reach out and seek a new path. My role isn’t to “fix” anything, but to create a safe, creative space where all parts of you are welcome.
Together, we can find a way back to connection, resilience, and joy.
I want you to take a deep breath and know that this is a hopeful place to begin.

The heart of happy camper
My Journey
I founded Happy Camper Counseling in 2013, with a simple idea born from my work as a therapist and a creative:
That the space where we heal should be as inspiring and thoughtful as the therapy itself.
I’m excited to launch our new Lakeway location, opening in 2026, with our original 1966 Airstream office and a new fully restored 1955 Spartan specially designed as a play therapy office.
This journey of creating Happy Camper Counseling has been a magical one.
If you’re ready to start your own path to healing, I invite you to connect and see if this is the right space for your story to unfold.
The Story Behind the Campers
Get to know me
At home, my life is a full and happy mix of family, nature, and creative messes.
As a mom to two young children, I’m deeply familiar with the beautiful chaos of parenthood: the constant negotiation between LEGOs on the floor and finding a quiet moment for myself.
This daily journey in raising little humans has become my greatest teacher in patience and empathy. It gives me a real, lived-in understanding of the challenges and joys parents face, and it constantly reminds me to see the world with a sense of wonder, just as children do.
When we’re not at home, you can often find our family outside. We love exploring the trails of Austin’s greenbelts, hunting for treasures at the weekend farmer’s market or thrift store, or just finding a quiet spot to watch a Texas sunset.
For me, being in nature is the quickest way to feel grounded, and getting lost in a creative project is how I find new perspectives. These are more than just hobbies; they are the practices that fill my cup, allowing me to show up for you with a sense of calm, creativity, and a down-to-earth perspective on this complicated thing we call life.
