Hi! I’m Claudia,

I’m a trauma-informed Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Philadelphia serving clients across Pennsylvania.

Understanding that our environments—culture, society, community, and relationships—profoundly influence our well-being, I adopt an integrative, personalized approach to therapy. I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community and young adults, providing an affirming space for all sexual and gender identities and expressions. I work well with folx struggling with people-pleasing tendencies, perfectionism, mood disorders, anxiety/OCD, chronic illness, caregiving roles, relationship difficulties, and family-of-origin concerns.

I believe that through our relationships, we learn to express our emotions and needs, set boundaries, and advocate for ourselves.

Therapy is no different.

I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing into my practice. I view mental health conditions as adaptive responses shaped by individual, relational, and societal contexts. Our work will involve understanding these coping mechanisms and fostering self-compassion.

Together, we’ll tap into your inherent capacity for healing and growth, moving toward your authentic self.
