About Claudia
Claudia Asztalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, ADHD, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions.
Background and approach
She frames symptoms as meaningful signals rather than personal failings and focuses on helping clients replace old, unhelpful coping patterns with healthier skills. Claudia emphasizes the interplay of mind and body and offers validation and practical tools to help clients move toward greater functioning and resilience.
Her style is warm, approachable, and trauma-informed, grounded in respect, empathy, and collaboration. With six years of professional experience, she draws from cognitive behavioral methods alongside acceptance and commitment, dialectical behavior, attachment-based, and client-centered approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs.
Claudia values the therapeutic relationship and works to create a respectful space where people are heard and guided toward attainable change. She encourages clients who have tried therapy before and felt frustrated to try again with patience and practical strategies.
How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Claudia integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work to offer both skills-based tools and values-focused strategies. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and problematic coping. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult internal experiences while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward meaningful goals.She also uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relational patterns influence present relationships and emotional responses, which can be particularly helpful for people struggling with intimacy, trust, or connection. Together these methods give practical exercises, reflective exploration, and behavioral experiments suited to remote sessions.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each person’s needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access care from different locations within Wisconsin. These formats support a range of interventions from skills coaching and behavioral homework to reflective conversation and real-time emotional support, helping clients engage in meaningful work wherever they are.
