About Hany

Hany Urdaneta is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of clinical experience. She speaks English and Spanish and focuses on trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Her work includes helping people who feel stuck after change or who are questioning what matters next, including concerns around life purpose.

She draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and rebuild daily routines. Sessions often address emotional reactions to trauma, patterns that affect relationships, and ways to handle guilt, shame, or impulsivity. Hany also supports people dealing with divorce, separation, and money or financial stress.

Hany uses practical methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, solution-focused work, reality therapy, person-centered approaches, and motivational interviewing. That means sessions can mix short-term problem solving with deeper conversations about values and choices. People can expect concrete skills alongside time to reflect on goals and next steps.

Her bilingual ability makes it possible to talk through sensitive topics in English or Spanish. She practices in Florida and holds the LMHC credential. Sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Hany often relies on cognitive behavioral approaches that identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical skills to change them; this can help with depression, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. She also uses solution-focused work that targets specific, achievable goals and steps to move forward, which can be helpful when someone feels stuck or is deciding on life purpose choices.

Choosing the best approach is part of the process. Hany will collaborate with each person to test methods and adjust them based on needs, goals, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize short-term problem solving or deeper values work.

Confirm the session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into daily life, whether someone needs a shorter check-in between obligations, prefers not to travel, or wants to use quieter surroundings and lower bandwidth options. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like behavioral experiments and goal-setting to work over distance while focusing on practical, everyday change.
