Hannia Burke-Aguero

Hannia Burke-Aguero is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of experience helping people regain balance during hard seasons. She focuses on practical ways to reduce stress, manage anxiety, and move through grief and life changes. Hannia offers care in English and Spanish and brings a bicultural perspective to sessions.

She uses a collaborative style, working with each person to identify the patterns that are keeping them stuck. Sessions center on clear goals and steps people can take between meetings. Hannia draws from evidence-based techniques to address mood concerns, panic, and coping with major life transitions including divorce and separation.

Her background includes long experience with caregiver stress, attachment concerns, communication problems, and multicultural adjustment. She also helps people navigate guilt, shame, isolation, and questions about purpose and money. This breadth of focus reflects a practical, problem-solving orientation rather than a one-size-fits-all method.

Clients can expect a warm, direct approach that balances empathy with concrete strategies. Hannia values working together to set achievable goals and to build skills that fit everyday life. She also respects cultural context and speaks both English and Spanish during sessions.

Outside of work she enjoys family time with her grandchildren, exercise, cooking, gardening, and home projects. These personal interests inform a down-to-earth style that many people find approachable when dealing with difficult changes.

Therapeutic approaches and adapting them online

Hannia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety and lift mood. Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to ground attention and lower stress in tense moments.

She also uses action-oriented methods that encourage active exercises and role practice to improve communication and problem solving. These approaches can help with attachment concerns, panic, and navigating major life transitions such as divorce and separation. The choice of approach is shaped by each person's goals, symptoms, and cultural background.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about preferences and test what works, adjusting techniques as progress is made. That shared planning helps people feel involved and clear about the next steps.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific formats offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing how sessions will run is part of the first scheduling steps so the format matches daily life and therapeutic goals.
