01About Claudia
Claudia Asztalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and relationship concerns. She notices how symptoms often point to life events that need attention rather than personal weakness. Claudia speaks plainly and offers steady support while clients learn new coping skills.
She favors a warm, down-to-earth style in sessions. Conversations focus on what happened and what is helpful now. Claudia listens with empathy and aims to validate feelings while gently offering tools for change.
Background and approach
Her work draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, plus attachment-focused ideas and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills. She adapts methods to each person, matching techniques to the situation and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Claudia brings six years of clinical experience in Wisconsin.
She describes herself as approachable and authentic, using a trauma-informed perspective when it is relevant. Clients who have tried therapy before and felt frustrated may find her understanding and patient. Practical change is central to her approach.
Sessions often include skill building for sleep, emotion regulation, and day-to-day coping. Claudia also helps people facing grief, body-image concerns, codependency, and life transitions by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new responses. People who work with her can expect collaboration on goals, clear explanations of techniques, and encouragement to try small, actionable steps between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches for remote care and coping skills
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them rule behavior. It emphasizes values-driven action and practical steps toward a life that feels meaningful despite painful emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and routines, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in close relationships, and it can help people revise those patterns to feel safer and more connected.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will explain options, try techniques in session, and adjust the plan as progress and feedback guide the process.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief updates, skill practice, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to continue care when travel or scheduling issues arise.
