Claudia is kind, caring, helpful she’s a great listener and a great therapist to work with and ask myself new questions.

Reviewed November 2024

Claudia is the first therapist I’ve ever had that has got me to open up in the first session. I’ve had therapy for a few months now and my mental health is so much better than it was when I started, as is my ability to actually make sure I’m looking after myself first instead of putting myself last. Couldn’t recommend anyone better.

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 also have a strong professional experience in treating psychological and emotional disorders such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, abuse, autism, addiction to name a few.

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.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

I have been looking for a therapist for years and never found someone that understood me. Claudia is a true Angel and listen well.

A very emotional session where I felt listened to, supported with full attention and empathy.

Reviewed February 2023

I had been looking for a therapist for years as I had been struggling with my thoughts and burdens. Meeting Claudia has been a transformational moment for me. She has helped me tremendously in narrowing my thoughts and separating them in order to find the root of my struggles. She has taught me the power of knowing who I am and has encouraged me each session. Thank you so much Claudia, I am now able to separate my personal feelings from my traumatic experiences, learned how to sit, accept and process my feelings. You’ve taught me to face my fears in bravery and brought out the responsible part of me. I truly appreciate you.

Claudia has helped guide me to find my way back to being me, to let go of the past and to accept the present. I loved the humour she used to help talk about some difficult subjects, as therapy can be scary and this approach made it less so. Thank you Claudia x

Claudia is a ray of sunshine. It was my first time doing therapy and I instantly felt as ease. I am very grateful for her expertise and with each session, I took away precious information that will stick with me forever. I can't recommend Claudia enough!

Reviewed November 2022

I'm very greatful to have met Claudia and instantly felt like I am understood on a deeper level. I trust her and feel in a comfortable environment to open up and be honest about my concerns. I love the metaphoric way she is able to explain a situation to me, which makes me see things vividly from a different perspective and change my mindset with a blink of an eye. I have been doing psychotherapy for some years now with different therapists and personally her approach and personality resonates with me the most.

Reviewed September 2022

Claudia is amazing, she knows exactly what to say in which moment and how to help me. We made some big breakthroughs in a few terapies. I am very happy, I got to use her services and I think we are a perfect match. I love how she is using humor to ease the situation and invites me not to take life to seriously but at the same time she is helping me to be serious and to work things through when it is needed. She laugh and cries with me and she is an amazing human. I ended up enjoying working through my stuff. After every session I feel lighter and lighter. Thank you Claudia!
