About Claudia
Claudia Asztalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin with six years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, relationship issues, grief, ADHD and related struggles. Claudia describes symptoms as signals the mind and body use to say something needs attention. She encourages practical coping skills rather than blaming the person for having symptoms.
Claudia favors straightforward, person-focused work. She listens for what has happened to someone and how their coping strategies formed. Sessions include talking through current problems, learning new habits that feel useful, and practising skills that reduce overwhelm. She uses everyday language and keeps interventions concrete and doable.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centered ideas. That mix is used to build emotion regulation, better communication, and clearer boundaries. She pays attention to how the body and mind interact when stress and anger show up.
Claudia describes herself as a mature clinician who has done personal therapy and understands the frustration of trying more than once. She aims to be respectful and direct, helping people try different strategies when old patterns stop working. Change is framed as gradual, with small steps that add up.
People who choose Claudia can expect practical skill-building, focused discussions about what led to current difficulties, and collaborative planning for next steps. She asks about goals and helps track what tools are most helpful between sessions.
How sessions work
How Claudia Uses Specific Approaches Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and making room for values-based action. It helps when anger or avoidance get in the way of living the way someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep anger and anxiety active and offers specific techniques to change them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and clearer communication when strong feelings arise.Finding the best fit is collaborative. Claudia will work with each person to try approaches that match goals, lifestyle and how they respond in sessions. That may mean using an ACT exercise one week, a CBT skill the next, and DBT techniques when emotions are intense. The plan is adjusted based on what helps most.
The biography does not list which online formats she uses, so confirm the current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks. It can also let people use phone-only sessions when bandwidth is limited or use video when visual cues matter. Ask about available formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
