Claudia Carballal-Benaglio, LPC

Claudia Carballal-Benaglio is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who uses cognitive behavioral methods as a primary way to help people find clarity and practical change. She offers bilingual support in English and Spanish and brings experience from work as an attorney, a life coach, and a yoga practitioner to her sessions. Claudia is described as someone who helps people at crossroads and during times of emotional turmoil.

Claudia focuses on thinking patterns and core beliefs to uncover what keeps problems in place. She also invites clients to look at their life stories, searching for meaning and alternative ways to tell difficult experiences. That mix can help when people face anxiety, relationship conflict, grief, or trauma and abuse.

Her background includes several years seeing clients in independent practice and within a mental health department. Claudia has around three years as a licensed counselor and prior experience as a coach and attorney that informs her negotiation work with couples and family concerns. She works with a wide range of issues including stress, addictions, ADHD, intimacy-related struggles, and parenting pressures.

Sessions are conducted with attention to cultural and language needs, especially for Spanish speakers. She helps people who are coping with life changes, difficult family dynamics, abandonment and attachment issues, and the effects of past trauma. Readers should confirm current session options before booking.

Claudia aims to blend hands-on strategies with reflective work. She practices mindfulness techniques and narrative reflection alongside cognitive tools so clients can make changes that fit their daily lives.

How Claudia’s approaches translate to online work

Claudia commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; this often fits goal-focused work like anxiety, mood, and relationship problems. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy, and abandonment concerns. Narrative therapy supports people in re-telling painful events to highlight strengths and alternative meanings, which can be useful after trauma or during big life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Claudia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make the most sense based on their goals and preferences. That conversation guides whether sessions emphasize thought-focused exercises, mindfulness practices, relational exploration, or story-based reflection.

Session options are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people connect from different locations within the same state. It can also allow for shorter check-ins or camera-free conversations when that helps someone engage. Licensed professionals tailor the way they use these approaches to match clients’ daily life and needs.
