About Claudia

Claudia Burns is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 20 years of clinical experience. She blends practical skill and empathy to help people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life changes. Claudia keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what will help most now.

She returned to school after raising three sons and working at Baylor College of Medicine in Surgery and Psychiatry. Her practicum included time on a county hospital psychiatric ward and crisis work after Hurricane Katrina.

Background and approach

Early clinical work also involved supporting people with eating disorders. For 15 years Claudia performed neuropsychological testing, spending long sessions assessing cognitive and emotional functioning. That work gave her direct insight into problems like PTSD, traumatic brain injury, adjustment to illness or accidents, and mood disorders.

Her approach emphasizes attachment-based ideas alongside cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic methods. She offers emotional support, education, and practical tools so people can manage symptoms and make choices that match their goals. Humor and real connection matter in the room.

Claudia has led online support groups in the past and has experienced counseling herself, which informs a down-to-earth style. People meet her and find a calm, steady presence that listens carefully and helps them build skills for everyday life.

If you want clear, experienced guidance for stress, relationships, or complex medical or mood issues, she can talk you through options and next steps.

Online support

Attachment-informed and skills-based care online

Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and connections; it helps people understand patterns that affect trust and closeness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to select methods that match their goals, history, and preferences. That conversation guides whether more attachment-focused exploration, skill-building with CBT, or DBT strategies are most helpful.

Online therapy with Claudia is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets you keep a face-to-face feel. Phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, skill practice, and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while keeping progress focused and practical.
