About Hannia

Hannia Burke-Aguero is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with thirty years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people regain balance when life feels overwhelming. Hannia speaks English and Spanish and brings her bicultural perspective into sessions.

Hannia works with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and common life transitions. She also helps people facing midlife questions, caregiver strain, relationship and communication concerns, and financial stress. Her approach centers on identifying unhelpful patterns and practical steps to change them.

She takes a collaborative style in the room. That means she and the person in therapy decide together what to work on and which techniques to try. Hannia uses a mix of evidence-based techniques tailored to each situation rather than a single fixed method.

Because she is bilingual and bicultural, Hannia is comfortable addressing multicultural concerns and identity transitions. She supports people through trauma- and loss-related issues as well as mood and panic symptoms, aiming to make therapy feel accessible and grounded.

Outside of work she enjoys family time with her grandchildren, exercise, cooking, gardening, and home projects. She brings that same practical, engaged energy to sessions, helping people set achievable goals and build small changes into daily life.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work

Hannia uses well-established, evidence-based techniques in her practice and adapts them to what each person needs. For example, cognitive behavioral approaches focus on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying small, practical changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness-based techniques help people learn simple attention and breathing practices that reduce stress and increase calm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different methods with the client and together decide which ones fit the person s goals, preferences, and daily life. That collaborative process includes checking what is helping and making adjustments over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible appointment times. It can also let people choose sessions that match a particular need, such as a shorter check-in when time is tight or a no-camera option when bandwidth is limited. Ask about scheduling details and formats when you set up your first appointment so sessions fit into your routine.
