How Claudia uses therapeutic approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small actions that matter to them. It focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck and on building a meaningful daily routine, which can help with anxiety and low mood.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what is important, and supports decisions about next steps. This approach can help people who want a space to process feelings and make choices at their own pace.

Mindfulness Therapy uses present-moment skills to reduce reactivity and manage intense emotions. Small practices are introduced to help with stress, trauma-related responses, and repeated worry.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, and then adapt methods collaboratively. That process can include trying different techniques to see what fits.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow a quieter check-in when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can also use shorter or more focused sessions for quick problem-solving or longer sessions for deeper work depending on what is agreed.
