About Gloria
Gloria Hanania is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career challenges, depression, and adjusting to life changes. Gloria uses clear, practical methods to help clients notice patterns and try different responses.
Her work emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map links between thinking, feeling, and acting. She also uses client-centered listening to help people feel heard and understood as they set goals.
Gloria brings solution-focused ideas to sessions, helping clients define small steps that move them toward concrete goals. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when someone is unsure about change or needs help strengthening commitment. Trauma-focused ideas are available for people affected by distressing events.
Sessions are straightforward and task-oriented. Gloria often helps clients practice new coping skills in session and then adapt them for daily life. She pays attention to cultural context and financial stress when those issues come up.
Clients who reach out can expect practical problem-solving, regular check-ins on progress, and an emphasis on what can be tried between meetings. The first conversations focus on identifying priorities and planning the next steps. Gloria encourages people to start where they are and work toward clear, manageable changes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Gloria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT sessions often include structured exercises, thought records, and practice tasks that can be reviewed between meetings. Client-Centered Therapy provides space for the person to describe priorities while the therapist listens and reflects, which supports clearer goal setting.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what change they want and strengthen their willingness to try new behaviors. That approach is useful when someone feels unsure about next steps or needs help resolving mixed feelings about change. Together these methods aim to break larger problems into practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked before, then suggest methods to try. If an approach isn’t helping, she will adjust the plan with the client so sessions stay focused on useful next steps.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use exercises or worksheets during the session. Talk with the therapist about what schedule and format would fit everyday life.
