About Claudia

Claudia Burns is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas whose work blends evidence-based techniques with empathic insight developed over a 20-year career.

Background and approach

She integrates cognitive behavioral approaches and psychodynamic thinking to help people understand patterns of thought and feeling, and she supplements those methods with mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy where helpful. Her background includes neuropsychological testing and clinical work in psychiatric settings, which shaped her ability to assess how cognitive, emotional, and life changes interact.

Her practice focuses on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, grief, addictions, ADHD, relationship and family issues, and problems with sleeping and eating.

Claudia draws on long experience supporting clients adjusting to major life events, chronic illness, injury, or disability, and assisting those navigating disability-related processes. She emphasizes practical tools, emotional validation, and helping clients gain clearer self-understanding.

Claudia values a strong therapeutic relationship and believes humor and human connection help recovery. She combines education, insight-oriented work, and concrete coping strategies to help clients pursue their goals and adapt to life’s challenges.

Approach-Oriented Care Delivered Online

Claudia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical strategies for managing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and difficulties with focus. Psychodynamic therapy is also part of her work, offering a way to explore how past events and relational patterns influence present emotions and behaviors, which can be especially useful when adjusting to life changes or processing trauma.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt methods over time so therapy fits the client rather than forcing a single model. The aim is to combine insight, skills training, and emotional support to create a plan that feels workable and meaningful.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life or location creates barriers, and they allow clients to access therapeutic tools and feedback in ways that suit their daily routines.
