More about Claudia
- 11 years' experience

- LMFT
I am a first-generation Mexican-American, bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have been providing therapeutic services since 2013. I have extensive experience working across diverse clinical settings, supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families from a wide range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds—both in person and through telehealth.
I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship issues, grief, stress, women’s issues, adolescent concerns, and major life transitions. My therapeutic approach is individualized and collaborative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based strategies, and Person-Centered techniques to meet each client where they are.
As a bilingual therapist, I offer services in both English and Spanish. My goal is to create a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions. I believe it takes courage to seek support and take steps toward change, and I am here to guide, empower, and walk alongside you as you move toward a more meaningful, balanced, and fulfilling life.
If you are ready to begin your healing journey, I would be honored to support you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
