Get to know Claudia
Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?
Psychology was always my first love, but financial restrictions led me to make practical career choices that did not require a master's degree, and thus my first career was in business banking for almost 10 years. After navigating the fast-paced and stressful corporate world, I transitioned to becoming a stay-at-home mother. My desire to parent my children to the best of my ability, along with a close family member's sudden and severe mental health issues, reignited my original passion for psychology and propelled me toward returning to school for a career change. For me, therapy is a deep calling, and I am deeply humbled and grateful to be able to serve in this way.
What types of clients do you work with best?
I have experience working with all ages and a range of difficulties related to trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, adjustment disorders, parenting, life transitions, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
What type of clients are you most excited to work with?
Our shared human experience is more than enough of a common thread for us to work well together.
What's one thing you wish all clients knew?
Therapy is a collaboration and you bring your expertise about your life experiences. Your expertise combined with mine makes a good team!
What inspires you?
I'm inspired by the resilience of human nature and our ability to not only overcome but thrive through challenges.
What can clients expect in their first session with you?
Our first session will be focused on developing a foundation of connection and trust, as well as a sense of hope that there is a way through.
What do you do for fun/on your time off?
I enjoy exercise, reading, meditation, and time with my family. I also dabble with teaching myself acoustic guitar.
