Claudia has been so helpful on my mental health journey. She has listened attentively and has given such thoughtful advice. She has such a soothing voice which was great to calm me down during sessions when I couldn’t stop crying. She is so sweet and great at validating feelings. Claudia is an all around amazing therapist!

A great counselor, responded quickly and very supportive on validating my feelings. Listened to what I had to say and guided me to also understand my feelings a little more. I love it!

So far only 1 session but she provided adequate advice and I can tell she listens. She easy to talk to on a comforting way where I feel no judgement at all. This is also my first time using this type of therapy so I don’t have anything to compare it to.
