About Gloria
Gloria Hanania is a Florida licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career challenges, and depression. She uses straightforward language and a calm presence to help people take small, concrete steps forward. Her work focuses on listening first and then choosing practical tools that fit each person.
Sessions often begin by identifying what feels most urgent, then testing simple strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning.
Background and approach
Gloria draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice patterns of thought and behavior that maintain anxiety or low mood. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation grounded in the client’s own goals and values. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are used to build motivation and set clear, achievable steps for change.
Trauma-Focused Therapy is available when past events keep affecting current life and coping. She helps people work through issues such as codependency, commitment struggles, communication problems, separation or divorce, substance concerns, and feeling isolated or empty. Gloria also supports people facing multicultural stressors, money worries, and seasonal mood shifts.
Practical matters are handled plainly: sessions may be by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling the first session.
How Gloria Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Gloria commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT helps people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or low mood, and then practice small behavioral changes. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person’s own values and goals, with the therapist offering reflective listening and gentle guidance.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when someone feels stuck about change. This approach helps clarify personal reasons for change and builds commitment without pressure. Together these methods let her tailor the work to each person’s situation and pace.
Finding the right mix is part of the process and happens collaboratively. Gloria will listen to your concerns, try approaches that match your goals, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different needs. Video lets most people work face-to-face when helpful, phone calls can be easier with lower bandwidth, live chat is good for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief daily touchpoints or reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between appointments.
