About Claudia
Claudia Asztalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin with six years of experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, grief, relationship concerns, and issues tied to family of origin. Claudia also supports people dealing with eating and sleeping problems, anger, ADHD, and identity matters including LGBT concerns.
Claudia frames symptoms as signals that something in a person’s life needs attention rather than as personal failure. She focuses on helping people replace coping strategies that no longer serve them with more effective ones. Sessions emphasize practical skills for day-to-day life and clearer understanding of how past family roles and expectations shape current behavior.
Her style is direct and person-focused. She listens, reflects what she hears, and works collaboratively to set goals. Claudia draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment work, attachment-based ideas, and dialectical behavior strategies to address thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and relationship habits.
She brings clinical experience with trauma-related concerns and attachment issues while keeping the work grounded and concrete. Claudia tends to use short exercises, skill practice, and conversations that connect past family patterns to present choices. The aim is to increase skills for handling stress and relationship difficulty rather than to label or pathologize.
People often come to her to understand why old family patterns repeat and to learn small, practical steps to change them. She asks about history, current routines, and what a better day would look like, then helps build doable strategies to get there.
How Claudia blends approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and when old family habits get in the way of chosen goals.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early family relationships shape current ways of relating. It helps people understand patterns of closeness, distance, and expectation that repeat in adult relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will discuss which methods make sense based on a person’s goals, current difficulties, and how they prefer to work. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk-based work, skill practice, and brief exercises translate well to remote sessions, and the therapist will help adapt tools so they fit your everyday routine.
