About Gloria
Gloria Hanania is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 25 years of experience. She guides people through stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, career challenges, and depression. Her approach is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people take practical steps forward.
Gloria focuses on clear, real-world strategies. She listens first, then helps people identify small changes that make a difference. Sessions are meant to be a place to talk honestly about feelings and daily struggles without judgment.
Background and approach
She uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful patterns and try new ways of thinking and acting. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are used to set achievable goals and keep momentum in change. Gloria also supports people facing codependency, commitment problems, communication difficulties, divorce and separation, and substance use concerns.
She can help with feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose or money stress. Practical tools and step-by-step plans are part of her work. Sessions may include skill practice, problem-solving, and checking progress over time.
The tone is encouraging and respectful, with attention to each person's goals and cultural background.
How Gloria’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, offering reflection and support to help people clarify their feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that get in the way and then introduces practical exercises to shift those patterns. Both approaches can help with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life changes.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gloria will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those needs. Over time she adjusts the plan based on what is working and what needs to change so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions work well when a quieter space or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text can be used for shorter check-ins, quick skill coaching, or when typing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
