I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, practicing in Florida and California. I have a PhD in Family Therapy. I have been working with clients in social and mental health settings for more than 20 years. I have experience working with diverse populations (different cultural backgrounds). I work with individuals, couples, and families facing grief, depression, anxiety, anger, life transitions, stress, problems in their relationships with relatives, co-worker/classmates, and trauma, among others.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During the initial session, I explain the confidentiality and teletherapy policies to my clients. My clients have the opportunity to ask questions related to the therapeutic process. My clients share information about their family, work/school, social life, hobbies, goals, and dreams. We discuss their reason for therapy, their expectations, and preliminary therapeutic goals. My goal during the initial session is to create a safe space (non-judgmental) for my clients to feel comfortable sharing their feelings and thoughts.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am a compassionate, caring, and positive professional. I respect and honor my clients' stories. I like to learn from my clients' experiences and value their contribution to my professional life.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I like to work with diverse populations with different cultural backgrounds. I trust my clients' ability to use their internal and external resources to overcome difficulties and pursue their goals. I enjoy being part of the healing journey of my clients dealing with trauma.

Claudia is warm & compassionate. She has a calm soft voice that makes us immediately feel relaxed. She is great at summarizing our feelings accurately & validating what we feel while giving us tools to work on our personalized situation. She is not a therapist that just hears you talk & a year later you are in the same situation you originally came to see her for. I feel she can be that therapist that makes a difference in people's lives. Thank you!

Made me feel very comfortable about being vulnerable and gave very good advice along with alternatives about what was talked about.
