About Gloria
Gloria Hanania is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, career challenges, depression, and life changes. Her work also addresses codependency, commitment issues, communication problems, addiction concerns, grief from separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
She uses straightforward talk and practical methods in sessions. Gloria draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, testing new ways of responding, and building clearer goals for day-to-day life.
Gloria encourages honest, direct conversation about what is working and what is not. She listens for how people get stuck around others - for example people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or staying in draining relationships. Work often includes practicing boundary language, sorting priorities, and spotting thought habits that feed anxiety or low mood.
Her approach balances short-term problem solving with attention to deeper wounds from past hurts or stressful events. Practical steps and homework are used when helpful, and progress is reviewed regularly. She also pays attention to cultural and financial pressures that shape choices and stress.
People who choose Gloria are usually ready to try concrete changes. The next step is to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how the approach fits.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting what a person says to help them organize thoughts and make personal choices. It is useful when someone needs space to talk through relationship patterns or life direction without being told what to do.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It breaks down unhelpful thinking and builds concrete skills for anxiety, low mood, or repeated behaviors like people-pleasing. Motivational Interviewing is a short-term method that helps people clarify what they want and find internal reasons to change, which can be useful around commitment issues or substance concerns.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit the issue, goals, and day-to-day life. That decision can change over time as goals shift and progress is reviewed.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so therapy fits into a lunch break or evening routine. Those practical benefits can help someone practice new skills between sessions and keep momentum without rearranging a whole day.
