About Clara
Clara sees difficulties as moments that reveal who we are. She helps clients work through grief, relationship concerns, and life changes. Sessions address practical problems like sleep, eating, and career stress as well as deeper issues such as attachment and abandonment worries.
Her approach blends clear, skills-based methods with a warm, client-centered stance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills help with strong feelings and self-regulation.
Clara also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas to support values-driven choices and repair relationship patterns. She brings motivational interviewing and positive psychology into work on motivation and confidence.
Sessions are practical and goal-focused. Clara encourages small, doable steps and skills people can use right away. She offers a nonjudgmental space to explore stress, trauma, parenting strain, caregiving burdens, and compassion fatigue.

How her approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are hard. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thought and behavior patterns and trying practical experiments to change them. It helps with sleep, eating, mood, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage strong feelings and improve communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Clara will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit each person. This collaborative process lets clients test skills and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or medical care.
