Getting to know Claudia Sánchez

Hi there, I'm Claudia! Hello, my name is Claudia E. Sanchez, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Fresno. My approach to counseling is client-centered. I've been a therapist for 16 years and strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for clients. My approach I use Strength-Based Treatment, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, mindfulness meditation, stress management, time management skills, and social skills training. These are some of the theories I incorporate into my practice. My focus I work with adults experiencing anything from daily stress to PTSD due to chronic trauma and abuse. My work has been primarily with underserved populations, including Spanish-speaking communities. My communication style I create an environment that feels safe, non-judgmental, and client-led. My job is not to tell you what to do but to collaborate with you. I assist in developing solutions, techniques, and healthy coping skills to replace unhealthy ones holding you back from living a healthier life. My journey to mental healthcare My career as a therapist started about 16 years ago when I saw the need for mental health services. I believe everyone should have access to mental health care. My goals for you When assisting a patient in setting goals, I explore realistic goals that can be implemented daily. I believe in meeting clients where they are and respecting what they see as progress. My first session with you My first session consists of getting to know you informally. I don’t go over a rigid list of questions; instead, I allow the discussion about you to flow naturally without an agenda of checking off boxes. I gather information by listening to your narrative about yourself.
