Claudia Stoscheck

Claudia Stoscheck is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience helping people manage anger and other intense emotions. She focuses on practical steps that make everyday life more manageable. Claudia listens, helps clients name what matters, and builds plans that fit real schedules and responsibilities.

Claudia works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, grief, and addiction concerns. She also supports people facing parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and changes that come with aging. Anger and coping with major life changes are part of her regular practice.

Her approach combines straightforward skills with space to reflect. Cognitive behavioral tools help identify thinking patterns that feed strong feelings. Mindfulness and acceptance strategies teach ways to notice feelings without being driven by them.

Claudia emphasizes collaboration. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change, with short-term goals and long-term planning as needed. She helps clients practice new responses, improve communication, and set healthier boundaries.

Clients can expect a calm, steady presence and step-by-step guidance. Claudia draws on decades of work in New York to adapt ideas to each person's life. She aims to leave people with tools they can use after therapy ends.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice uncomfortable thoughts and still take steps toward what matters. It focuses on values-driven action rather than trying to eliminate every unwanted feeling. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that feed anger and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional control.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then choose or combine methods that make sense for their situation. The plan can change over time as needs shift.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed. It also can help people practice skills in real-life moments and bring examples from daily routines into sessions. Licensed professionals adapt techniques so clients can try tools between meetings and track progress over time.
