Claudia Diaz

Claudia Diaz is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Claudia also addresses communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, self-love, and women's issues. She conducts sessions in English and does not accept international clients.

Claudia's work focuses on practical skills and clear conversation. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking. She draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation and coping tools when feelings feel overwhelming. Narrative Therapy is used to help people reframe their stories and notice strengths they may have overlooked.

In sessions she listens for specific patterns that hold someone back and then tests small, doable changes. She helps people practice communication skills and plan steps for relationship or life transitions. With trauma and abuse survivors she moves at a pace the client sets and combines safety skills with skills for tolerating hard feelings.

Claudia encourages clear goals and regular check-ins on progress. She describes clients as the experts in their own lives and treats therapy as collaborative problem solving. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Claudia uses CBT, DBT, and Narrative work online

Claudia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts that increase anxiety or depression and to test new ways of thinking. CBT in sessions often includes setting specific, small behavioral experiments to see what changes feel helpful for daily life.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach concrete techniques for managing intense emotions and improving stress tolerance. DBT strategies can be practiced between sessions and are useful for improving emotion regulation and handling conflict without escalating.

Narrative Therapy is used to examine personal stories and identify strengths that may be hidden by problem-focused thinking. This approach supports people who want to rethink life purpose, overcome limiting beliefs, or reframe past events in a way that helps them move forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods based on what the person reports is helping.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people keep consistent appointments while they try different approaches.
