Intro

I'd love to meet you! I am Claudia, a licensed clinician in Colorado. I have been a therapist for over 20 years. I truly love working and being part of the neurodivergent community. I incorporate different modalities to help clients develop a healthy perception of themselves and improve relationships with others.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I've had a very personal and long journey with Autism. I believe that when those you love the most think and act from a neurodivergent perspective, life becomes an ever-learning journey. One I am proud of experiencing and continue to explore.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

Being part of Prosper Health allows me to be part of the change I so desperately sought many years ago.  I am well familiar with daily challenges that one may hesitate to share, or struggles go identify. It's challenging! that's why I am eager to work with anyone who identify as having unique characteristics or perceived as different. My committed to you is to provide a sense of safety and personal well-being, my work is from the heart.
