Online Interactive Psychotherapy for Adults
checkbox

A compassionate space to be heard, understood, and renewed.

Each session is a step toward clarity, healing, and a life aligned with who you truly are.

Within every challenge is an invitation to rediscover your own strength.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Please call or email me for an online individual therapy consultation today.

I’m glad you’ve found your way here.

Hello! I'm Claudia. I have been a psychotherapist for almost 35 years. In the spring of 2015, I moved to Portland, Oregon, to "semi-retire" and to be closer to family. I now see a limited number of clients exclusively online through my home office in Portland. This allows me to spend more time with family and to follow my passions of choral singing, drumming, exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest, doing yoga, writing creative non-fiction, and dedicating myself even more fully to a limited number of clients. I was a founder of Park Presidio Counseling Center in 1991. As my practice is now EXCLUSIVELY ONLINE, I am licensed to see clients living anywhere in California only.

I received my graduate education at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco, graduating in 1987. Since then, I have maintained a counseling center, trained interns, run groups, participated in online webinars on topics relevant to psychology and healing, and served as an examiner for the California Board of Behavioral Sciences.

If This Time Has Taught Me Anything
"Know that you are more than your scars.
Know that every wound that you have healed along the way has taught you what it is to fight back.
To start again from where you are and with what you've got.
If this time has taught me anything, it is this: HOPE matters and we cannot live without it.
The future can be better and can be brighter and we each have it within us to make it so."
