Karissa Claudio, LMSW

I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, supported, and comfortable being yourself. I approach each client with curiosity, compassion, and without judgment, taking the time to understand not only what is bringing you to therapy, but also the strengths, experiences, and relationships that have shaped who you are.

Language: English

I work with individuals and families navigating life transitions, emotional and behavioral challenges, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I tailor treatment to each client's individual needs and draw from approaches including CBT, DBT, trauma-focused interventions, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, therapeutic play, and strengths-based practices.

My style is collaborative, client-centered, and individualized. I work with individuals and families navigating life transitions, emotional and behavioral challenges, trauma, relationship difficulties, and other experiences that can leave you feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-focused interventions, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, therapeutic play, and strengths-based practices.

Together, we will identify what you would like to change, better understand the patterns or obstacles getting in your way, and build practical skills you can use outside of the therapy room. My goal is to help you recognize and build upon your existing strengths, develop greater resilience, and create meaningful changes that feel realistic and sustainable in your everyday life.
