Claudine Clarke
Feeling stuck, stressed, lonely or burned out? I’m here to help! I am a licensed psychotherapist in California, Illinois, Massachusetts and Michigan. I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from National Louis University, a CACREP accredited school in Illinois. I am also an active member of the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) and am a National Certified Counselor (NCC).
I am a competent and compassionate psychotherapist who works hard to help my clients discover their goals through effective psychological counseling techniques.
First session
Clients can expect a warm greeting and easy introduction. I always set an agenda for each session, so clients will also know what to expect from every session. I encourage my clients to ask questions and to open up at their own pace.
Strengths
I am a competent and compassionate psychotherapist who works hard to help my clients discover their goals through effective psychological counseling techniques. I am skilled at providing brief yet timely therapy to diverse populations. My practical experience includes working with adults and couples of varying backgrounds including working with clients from the LGBTQIA+ population.
Ideal clients
Currently, I am only working with adults, but I work with adults across the life span from those just starting out to those that are in retirement. I also work with clients who identify as LGBTQ+IA and also clients from different cultural backgrounds.
