About me

Hello, my name is Claudia and I am an experienced psychotherapist. I offer individual, couple and family sessions in person and online. My areas of expertise are stress, anxiety, trauma, post-traumatic stress and burnout.

I am trained in Gestalt, NPL, Family Systems, Attachment Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Nesting Child Theory, Sandboxing, Dream Interpretation, Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy for to name just a few.
I can therefore offer therapy tailored to the unique needs of each client.
I am also qualified and experienced in clinical supervision.
I am passionate about helping others explore their thoughts and feelings, face and overcome challenges in their lives, build resilience for a healthy and balanced life. I am an TCK (Thurd Culture Kid/Adult) therefore of mixed cultures. This gives me a good knowledge and understanding of different ethnic, cultural and multi-faith backgrounds, as well as an interest in working with members of the sexual minority. I am first aid trained and DBS checked.
