About Claudia
Claudia Carballal-Benaglio is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She offers bilingual counseling in English and Spanish and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship conflict, coping with life changes, and family concerns. Her background includes work as an attorney, life coach, and yoga practitioner, which she draws on in sessions.
Claudia primarily uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and beliefs. She also uses narrative approaches to help clients tell and reframe the stories they carry about themselves. Attachment-based ideas guide her when relationship patterns and early family roles are central to a concern.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Claudia talks through current problems, identifies thinking patterns that keep difficulties going, and practices alternate ways of responding. She helps people sort priorities, manage anxiety, and make clearer choices about relationships and work.
For those dealing with family of origin issues, she pays attention to how early roles and expectations continue to shape adult choices. Claudia helps people name those patterns and consider different ways to relate to family members and partners. She also supports work on grief, addiction-related concerns, sleep and eating struggles, and caregiver stress.
Her work blends straightforward cognitive techniques with reflective questions about meaning and connection. Sessions can include skill-building, reframing personal narratives, and noticing attachment patterns in current relationships. Claudia encourages practical steps clients can use between meetings.
How Claudia uses evidence-based approaches online
Claudia commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test alternative ways of thinking. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that sustain relationship conflict.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early family roles shape adult relationships. That approach focuses on patterns of closeness, distance, and trust so people can make different choices in current relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try techniques together to see what fits. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted over time.
