Background and approach

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods with warm, client-centered support. Claudia uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people calm distressing thoughts and build new habits. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to teach emotion regulation and better coping when feelings run high.

In sessions she focuses on what a person can do between meetings. That might mean small behavior changes, communication practice, or learning grounding and relaxation skills. She also helps people address longer-term patterns such as attachment wounds, abandonment fears, or avoidant tendencies.

Claudia practices in New York and works with adults seeking help for varied life challenges. She explains tools in plain language and offers step-by-step plans so people feel less overwhelmed and more able to move forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used when people want to reduce avoidance and build a life that matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors to ease symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleeping problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore feelings and make their own choices about change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Claudia collaborates with each person to identify goals and then blends methods that match those goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan so sessions feel useful and focused on real-world change.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet visually for deeper conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to get support between appointments, track progress, or review coping strategies. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives while using approaches like ACT and CBT in ways that match their daily routines.
