About Claudia Asztalos
Claudia Asztalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin who brings six years of clinical experience to her practice. She frames distressing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and difficulty sleeping not as personal failure but as meaningful signals that something in a person’s life needs attention. Claudia helps people understand how past experiences, including trauma and attachment wounds, shaped coping strategies that once protected them but now limit wellbeing. Her work emphasizes learning new, healthier skills so mind and body can move toward healing and resilience.
She practices from a trauma-informed, eclectic stance that blends evidence-based methods with humanistic and somatic perspectives. Her approach is warm, authentic, and collaborative, offering validation and practical tools while honoring each person’s unique strengths and history. Claudia often integrates modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness practices to tailor treatment to specific concerns.
Claudia understands the courage it takes to seek counseling and draws on her own therapy experiences to treat others with the respect and care she valued as a client. She works with adults on issues including stress, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and attachment difficulties, self-esteem, grief, eating and body image concerns, ADHD, and coping with life transitions. Claudia aims to empower people to develop sustainable coping and to move toward meaningful change.

Online Therapeutic Approaches for Connection and Change
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build a life guided by those values. It uses mindfulness and behavioral strategies to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful action, which can aid with anxiety, depression, and patterns of avoidance.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape emotional responses and connection patterns. It supports people in understanding attachment wounds, improving relationship skills, and healing painful patterns related to abandonment, trust, and intimacy.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It is useful for managing intense emotions, improving boundaries, and reducing self-destructive coping behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Claudia collaborates with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so treatment remains practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent support around schedules, mobility, and geographic constraints while maintaining the same therapeutic focus and clinical skills that guide in-person care.
