Claudia Noriega, LPCC, LPC

Claudia Noriega uses clear, practical therapy to help people feel more steady and capable. She is an Ohio-licensed clinician with 12 years of experience and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, and depression. Claudia speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions straightforward and approachable for worried parents and busy adults.

She favors cognitive behavioral approaches that look at thinking patterns and everyday habits. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with steps you can try between meetings. Claudia also draws on client-centered methods to make sure each conversation reflects the person's values and pace.

Motivational interviewing is part of her toolkit when people want help finding the drive to change. She asks questions that help uncover reasons for wanting different outcomes and supports small, realistic steps forward. For deeper history and personal patterns, she may bring psychodynamic ideas into the dialogue to connect past experience with present behavior.

Claudia aims to tailor the plan to each person instead of using one fixed path. She talks through practical strategies for daily life and checks in about what feels useful. Her style is respectful and compassionate, focused on building confidence and steady progress.

Starting therapy with Claudia involves picking approaches that match your goals and trying techniques that fit your routine. She guides people through doable changes and helps them notice progress over time.

How Claudia’s approaches work in online therapy

Claudia often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can test small changes and track results over time.

She also uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the person’s goals guide each session. That approach emphasizes listening, reflection, and adjusting the pace to match what feels right for the individual.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claudia will talk through goals and preferences and recommend one or a mix of methods based on what you want to change. The plan can be adjusted as progress or needs shift, so the process stays collaborative.

Online therapy with Claudia is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone can be used when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing, flexible contact. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to try formats that match personal comfort and daily demands.
