About Hannia
Hannia Burke-Aguero is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 30 years of clinical experience in Missouri. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Hannia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people identify patterns that keep them stuck. She takes a collaborative stance and adjusts interventions to the person in front of her. In practice this means talking through what is happening now, noticing recurring reactions, and trying small, practical changes between meetings.
Her work often addresses attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, and the effects of divorce or separation. She also helps people with guilt, shame, loneliness, money worries, and questions about life purpose or midlife transitions. Panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, pregnancy and childbirth related concerns, and mood disorders are also within her scope.
Hannia brings bicultural and bilingual experience to sessions and integrates approaches such as mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques. She may use action-oriented methods or motivational interviewing where they fit the person's goals. The emphasis is on clear steps people can try and on reviewing what helps and what does not.
Outside of clinical work she spends time with family and grandchildren and enjoys exercise, cooking, gardening, and home projects. That personal background informs a practical, down-to-earth style in sessions.
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Hannia uses clinical approaches such as mindfulness and cognitive behavioral strategies. Mindfulness involves noticing thoughts and bodily sensations to reduce reactivity and increase focus, which can help with anxiety and stress. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at unhelpful thoughts and test them with new actions, which can reduce panic symptoms and low mood.She also uses action-oriented methods and motivational interviewing when these match a person's goals; action-oriented methods bring experiments and activities into sessions, and motivational interviewing helps clarify what matters most to someone and builds commitment to change. Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work; she collaborates with each person to see what fits their needs and goals.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or reduce travel time. Online meetings can make it easier to keep continuity across moves or when juggling caregiving, while still focusing on practical skills and steps to try between sessions.
