About me

I work with individuals, couples, and families. I provide bilingual (Spa/Eng) and multicultural counseling for people of diverse races and beliefs. As a therapist, life coach of more than 10 years, yoga practitioner, and former attorney, I bring a wide range of experiences to counseling, including the art of negotiation with couples and families, and the practice of self-understanding, self-awareness, and inquiry with individuals.

I’m primarily a cognitive behavioral therapist — I help you explore your thoughts and core beliefs to gain clarity and find solutions. I also facilitate observation of narrative and finding meaning in your experiences and the complexity of life. People usually seek my services when they are at a crossroads, are dealing with relationship conflict, difficult family dynamics, emotional turmoil, lack of clarity, anxiety, anger, or want to overcome past trauma. I have been seeing around 35-40 individuals per week in my private practice and with the mental health department of an organization. I look forward to meeting you and talking to you further.

Claudia is a great listener and very compassionate . She gives advice and also encourages you to branch out in ways that will benefit you. Her schedule is pretty flexible too.

She listens and is considerate of my feelings. I’ve truly honestly felt I have grown my mindset and confidence in myself because I met her as my counselor. Whoever chooses to start a journey with her will definitely yield results.

After the sudden death of my husband I signed up with Better Help and was assigned Claudia. Excellent choice as she is compassionate and reminds me to be gentle with myself, as that is what I need right now.
