Founded in 1912 by Gilbert F. Stevenson, who was an affluent land developer from the south. He bought about 13,000 acres to establish a citrus orchard, but he had his money stretched too thin and ended up losing most of his property during the Great Depression. The city continued to prosper thanks to Stevenson’s investments and continues to be a successful and delightful town in California’s citrus belt.

Sometimes things just do not work out as we planned them, and we have to make some changes along the way. If you have had some pitfalls in your life or just need someone to talk to about something going on, there are plenty of counselors in and around the Woodlake area who are available to help.

Hello, My name is Claudia. A little about me: I graduated in 2013 with a masters degree in psychology and am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with children, adults and families who have decided therapy could be a source of support. I emphasize the word DECIDE because therapy will work best when -you're ready- for reflection, compromise and, when applicable, open for change. My approach to therapy is strength-based, solution focused and client-centered. Each person's story is unique; therefore, I use multiple treatment modalities to meet each individual's needs. I work collaboratively with clients throughout their counseling process and journey to support them in their healing. Thank you for taking the first step in your healing, and I hope to meet you soon.
