Claudia

My name is Claudia (she/her) and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, and an American Board Sexologist practicing in the State of Washington. I identify as a collaborative and nurturing therapist who honors her clients’ experiences with compassion, permission-giving, and accountability. I view therapy as a gift that we give to ourselves, a gift of knowledge and self-discovery. It would be my honor to work with you toward your goals with an approach that is respectful, encouraging, and kind.

I was born in Mexico City and my first language is Spanish, but I grew up speaking English as a second language. My cultural background informs my non-judgmental and person-centered therapeutic approach. When addressing your current experiences, I will always consider the impact of the larger context of your family and culture. This means I view individuals in the context of their relationships and their interactions with others.

I am humorous and transparent so you can expect my authenticity to show up in the way I work with clients and in the way I build therapeutic relationships. I believe in the healing power of laughter and if you decide that you would like to work with me, you will have someone in your corner who will be there to support you, challenge you, and celebrate you. Starting this journey is not always easy and I am so glad you are here. I believe that all of us have the ability to reclaim our stories. It would be my honor to help you rewrite yours.
