She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, depression, and coping with major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Hannia uses a collaborative style in therapy. She helps people identify patterns that get in the way and talks through practical steps to change them. Her approach draws on several evidence-based techniques to match the needs of each person she sees.
Her work includes addressing attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and separation or divorce. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, life purpose questions, and financial or work-related stress. Hannia lists trauma-related concerns such as post-traumatic stress and panic as part of her focus.
She describes herself as bicultural and bilingual, and brings that perspective into sessions for clients navigating cultural transitions or identity shifts. Outside of clinical work she spends time with family, exercises, gardens, and works on home projects.

How Hannia integrates common therapy methods into online work
Hannia lists several evidence-based techniques she uses, including mindfulness and cognitive behavioral strategies. Mindfulness involves simple attention practices that help reduce reactivity and manage overwhelm; it can be applied to stress, anxiety, and mood challenges. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments to change mood and behavior.She also lists prolonged exposure for trauma, which works through gradual, supported facing of trauma reminders to reduce fear and avoidance. That approach is typically used for post-traumatic stress and panic-related problems and is done at a pace that feels manageable for the client.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. Hannia will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then try approaches collaboratively. That means adjusting methods over time based on what helps the client meet their goals.
