Claudia Pina, LCSW, LADC
County: Hartford, Litchfield, Middlesex, New Haven
Specialties: Adults, Anxiety, Depression, Families, LGBTQ Issues, PTSD, Stress Management
Description of current practice:
Since 2010, I've maintained a part-time private practice, offering therapeutic support to individuals aged 16 and older dealing with a wide array of issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, and more. Alongside my private practice, I work full-time with college-aged students at a local university, specializing in brief solution-focused therapy, crisis intervention, and case management.
My therapeutic approach is deeply influenced by body-centered/somatic techniques, parts work, mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and relational therapy. I have a particular interest in assisting survivors of trauma, developmental injuries, and attachment-related issues.
This diverse background equips me with a comprehensive understanding of various mental health challenges. My expertise lies in creating a supportive and empowering therapeutic space, where I combine traditional and innovative methods to help individuals navigate their emotional struggles and foster personal growth.
