About Claudia

Claudia Carballal-Benaglio is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who blends cognitive behavioral techniques with narrative and attachment-informed perspectives to help clients clarify thinking patterns and find meaning in life’s challenges.

Background and approach

She emphasizes exploring thoughts and core beliefs to promote clearer decision making and practical problem solving, while also attending to how personal stories and relationships shape emotional experience.

Drawing on a diverse professional background that includes experience as an attorney, a life coach of more than 10 years, and a yoga practice, she brings varied skills to counseling such as negotiation strategies for couples and thoughtful inquiry for individuals.

Claudia offers bilingual services in English and Spanish, and her practice addresses concerns including anxiety, stress, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, ADHD, depression, and grief among other areas.

With three years as an LPC and a history of substantial clinical workload in independent practice and organizational mental health settings, Claudia aims to create a collaborative space where clients explore patterns, uncover values, and work toward sustainable change. She welcomes people ready to examine emotions, improve communication, and develop tools for coping with life transitions.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care



Claudia primarily uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also employs attachment-based ideas to explore how relationship dynamics and early connection patterns influence current emotions and communication, which can be useful for resolving conflicts or improving intimacy.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Claudia works with clients to assess goals, preferences, and needs, and she tailors interventions over time rather than fixing on a single method from the outset. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques and focuses feel most helpful as work progresses.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for scheduling and allow therapy to fit around daily life. These formats make it easier to continue work between appointments, access bilingual English-Spanish care in Texas, and maintain continuity when in-person meetings are not practical.
