About Clara

Clara Angulo is a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with a decade of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She brings a compassionate, client-centered attitude and a practical orientation to therapy, blending evidence-based techniques to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma, and compassion fatigue. Clara emphasizes personal growth through facing life’s challenges and helps people reconnect with their values and strengths.

Her approach draws on cognitive-behavioral methods as well as dialectical skills and acceptance-based practices, adapted to each person’s needs. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and Clara frames therapy as a collaborative process that supports coping with change, improving self-esteem, and managing mood or behavioral concerns.

She creates a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can explore patterns rooted in upbringing, attachment, or life transitions and work toward meaningful goals. Clara’s practice works with a broad range of life and mental health topics including career struggles, parenting challenges, eating and sleeping problems, chronic illness or caregiving stress, and issues tied to family of origin.

As an LCSW licensed in Florida (FL LCSW SW14221), she integrates practical skills and reflective exploration to help clients build sustainable change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Clara uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to guide her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to problems like anxiety, depression, or sleep difficulties and offers concrete tools for coping. ACT emphasizes values-driven action and acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings, helping clients build meaningful lives in the presence of distress.

Finding the right approach is framed as a collaborative process. Clara assesses each person’s goals, preferences, and life context and tailors techniques from CBT or ACT as needed, inviting feedback and adjustments so the plan fits the client rather than expecting the client to fit a single method.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow clients to schedule work around busy lives, revisit skills between sessions via messaging, and continue therapy from different locations within Florida. The variety of formats supports different communication styles and practical needs while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship with a licensed professional.
