About Claudia
Claudia Burns is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 20 years of clinical experience. She draws on long experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, and major life changes. Her style is direct and warm, and she uses practical techniques aimed at everyday life.
Claudia returned to graduate school while raising three sons and working full time at Baylor College of Medicine. Early clinical placements included work on a psychiatric ward and support efforts after Hurricane Katrina.
Background and approach
She also led an online panic disorder support group before completing her master’s degree in psychology. For 15 years she conducted neuropsychological testing, spending long evaluation sessions with clients to understand cognitive and emotional challenges. That work deepened her experience with PTSD, traumatic brain injury, mood disorders, and the effects of accidents and chronic illness on daily functioning.
Her approach combines cognitive behavioral ideas with psychodynamic perspectives and attachment-based thinking. She focuses on emotional support, practical skills, and learning more about how past experiences shape current behavior. Humor and human connection are part of how she builds a working relationship.
Claudia has worked with people facing eating disorders, addiction, grief, relationship strains, workplace stress, and challenges tied to aging and disability. She helps people gain insight, learn coping techniques, and develop plans to move forward. If you want a thoughtful, experienced counselor who listens and offers concrete tools, she is available to talk.
How Claudia combines evidence-based approaches in online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape feelings and reactions. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or repeating painful patterns to notice those patterns and try more useful ways of relating.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them in real life. It provides concrete tools for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, sleep problems, and many day-to-day challenges.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Claudia will talk with clients about goals and try methods that match their needs and comfort. She adjusts techniques over time and combines approaches when that gives better results.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation from wherever they are. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer flexible ways to process between sessions and to get brief support without scheduling a full session.
These formats support consistent care for stress, ADHD, trauma recovery, and mood concerns while allowing clients to choose what fits their routine and preferences.
