About Claudia
Claudia Leyton-De la Torre is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings an honest, down-to-earth approach to therapy. She aims to create a space where people can speak plainly about what feels hard. Sessions are conversational and focused on real problems, not jargon.
Claudia blends existential thinking with practical methods to help people face life transitions. She helps with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Work often centers on identifying values, making choices, and building small daily habits that matter.
Background and approach
She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive-behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and encourage mindful action. Dialectical behavior tools and client-centered listening are brought in when they fit the person’s needs. The emphasis is on clear, doable steps rather than long explanations.
Claudia also addresses relationship concerns, communication problems, and complications from family history. She supports people dealing with career questions, immigration-related stress, gender dysphoria, and compassion fatigue. Intimacy-related struggles and body image concerns are included in her work.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish from Texas. Claudia has six years of clinical experience and holds the LPC credential. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where goals are practical and tied to everyday life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Existential Therapy invites people to look at meaning, choice, and responsibility when life feels confusing or empty. It helps with big transitions, feelings of emptiness, or questions about identity by focusing on what matters to the person now.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by clarifying values and encouraging small committed actions that move life forward.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and building trust so the client can discover their own answers. This approach supports people who need a steady, nonjudgmental space to process grief, relationship difficulties, or self-esteem concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods, and adapt tools based on what feels useful. Together they decide which mix of ideas and exercises fits the client’s needs and preferences.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or during a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging make shorter check-ins possible and can fit into busy days. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions and to use therapeutic tools between appointments.
