“I was terrified, but she made the conversation feel natural and comfortable, and I never felt judged or rushed. I left feeling lighter, and with a lot to think about in a good way ??”

“I was a little skeptical at first since I had never done therapy before, but Karissa was exactly the touch I needed to feel confident in my decision. She made me feel comfortable, heard, and at ease, and it was such a great session that I didn’t want it to end! Unfortunately, I’ve since moved out of state, but I would absolutely love the opportunity to connect with her again in the future. Thank you Karissa for your wisdom during my time of darkness and uncertainty, I'm forever grateful for the experience. ??”

Getting to know Karissa Claudio
I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, supported, and comfortable being yourself. I approach each client with curiosity, compassion, and without judgment, taking the time to understand not only what is bringing you to therapy, but also the strengths, experiences, and relationships that have shaped who you are.
My style is collaborative, client-centered, and individualized. I work with individuals and families navigating life transitions, emotional and behavioral challenges, trauma, relationship difficulties, and other experiences that can leave you feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-focused interventions, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, therapeutic play, and strengths-based practices.
Together, we will identify what you would like to change, better understand the patterns or obstacles getting in your way, and build practical skills you can use outside of the therapy room. My goal is to help you recognize and build upon your existing strengths, develop greater resilience, and create meaningful changes that feel realistic and sustainable in your everyday life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, supportive, and nonjudgmental. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change, so I take the time to understand who you are, what matters to you, and what you need from therapy. I will meet you where you are while also helping you recognize the strengths and abilities you already have. Therapy with me is individualized, and we will work together to determine what approaches feel most useful for you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
We will begin by getting to know one another and identifying what is bringing you to therapy and what you hope will be different. Together, we will explore the patterns, experiences, or obstacles that may be contributing to current challenges and identify realistic goals for treatment. I incorporate evidence-based interventions and practical coping strategies based on your individual needs, while helping you build upon your existing strengths. Over time, our work will focus on developing tools, increasing resilience, and creating meaningful changes that extend beyond the therapy room.
