Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Claudia integrates client-centered therapy into her work, offering a respectful, non-directive stance that focuses on understanding each person’s experience and fostering self-directed growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, complements this by helping clients identify and shift patterns of thinking and behaviour that contribute to anxiety, low mood and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports couples and individuals to explore emotional patterns and attachment needs, making it useful for relationship difficulties and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Claudia collaborates with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses so the work remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Claudia is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and differing comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and choose the communication style that feels most helpful while working toward personal and relational goals.
