About Claudia
Claudia Noriega practices in Ohio and brings 12 years of counseling experience to her work. She is an LPCC and an LPC who focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship concerns, and intimacy-related issues. Claudia speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first step toward help feel manageable.
Her main goal is to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions are shaped around what the client needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
How Claudia works
She uses clear conversation to identify goals and practical steps that fit into daily life. Claudia draws from several approaches to tailor care. She blends client-centered listening with cognitive techniques to address unhelpful thoughts.
Solution-focused work helps set short-term goals, while motivational interviewing supports readiness to change. In sessions she invites honest talk about relationships and intimacy without judgment. She helps people name patterns that contribute to anxiety or low confidence and then practices small changes together.
That can mean trying different ways of responding or rehearsing conversations for real life. Claudia emphasizes gradual progress and practical tools you can use between meetings. She adjusts pacing and methods based on how a person responds.
Her approach aims to make therapy understandable and useful from the first session.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Claudia uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, attentive space where the person's concerns and goals guide the work. This approach emphasizes listening and understanding before deciding on next steps, which helps when someone is unsure where to begin.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and often focuses on skills you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety and lift mood. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she uses to support people who feel stuck or ambivalent about making changes; it helps clarify values and build motivation.
Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences rather than following a single set plan. Clients take part in deciding what to try and how quickly to move forward.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful when face-to-face interaction matters, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep progress between meetings.
