About Claudia
Claudia Stoscheck is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of practice in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and the ups and downs of major life changes. Her style is warm and straightforward, focused on practical steps people can take between sessions.
Claudia draws on a mix of approaches to meet each person where they are. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients choose values-based action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to increase moment-to-moment coping and emotional regulation.
Her background includes long experience supporting caregivers, people recovering from trauma, and those navigating midlife or health-related transitions. She often helps with sleep problems, grief, addiction concerns, intimacy issues, and parenting stress. Claudia pays attention to how past attachment and abandonment issues shape current relationships.
In sessions she focuses on building resilience and clearer communication. People work on realistic goals, habit changes, and skills they can use right away. The work combines practical coaching with deeper emotional processing.
Claudia sees therapy as a collaborative process. New clients begin by sharing what matters most to them, then move into short-term strategies and longer-term growth as needed. She practices in New York and conducts work in English.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, concrete steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, life transitions, and when someone wants practical direction tied to personal meaning.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and then practicing different responses. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and habits people want to change.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Claudia will work collaboratively to choose techniques that match a client's goals and preferences. Early sessions are used to decide whether ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or a mix feels most useful for the person in front of her.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing more flexible scheduling. It also supports using in-the-moment tools like breathing exercises or behavioral experiments between appointments. Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many people find remote work helps maintain continuity of care during life transitions and makes it simpler to attend regular sessions.
