More about Clara

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello/Hola, I am a bilingual (Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker from the state of Florida. I have over 5 years of clinical experience in the South Florida area. I am lucky enough that I live in a state that is diverse in population and cultures. I have worked with different age groups and I sincerely believe that we all want to live a happy life, yet there are times during our lifetime that we encounter personal issues due to our upbringing or our relationship with other individuals that impede our happiness. In difficulties, we find who are as individuals, and in confronting adversities we have the potential for growth and healing. I want to help you discover who you are and the incredible potential that you possess to overcome obstacles in your life and truly live the life that you deserve to live. I offer a nonjudgmental environment that can support your journey of self-fulfillment and happiness.

I am well versed in different evidenced-based therapeutic techniques with an emphasis on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectic behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and positive psychology.

I welcome the opportunity to assist you in your journey.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Great real world therapist. Sarah appreciates that people cannot live in a bubble that there is a real world out there and offers suggestions and guidance in dealing with issues in a practical manner

Jan 2024

The little bit of time I've spent with Clara has been very productive. She really tries to get to know you, is present with you, and she offers an expert solution. She gives thoughtful feedback to my journals and reminds me of how much she believes in me. She kept me from making regrettable decisions when my anxiety was at its worst. She really is amazing and I am so grateful for her!

Absolutely love Clara !

Oct 2023

I have been with Clara for more than a year now. She has changed my life so much to the better!

Aug 2023

I have had quite a few therapists in my 25 years of life and most of them have been terrible which has built up a kind of trauma response to trying to find help. I wasn't doing well and decided to give BetterHelp a try. I was super skeptical, but I knew that if it didn't work out, I would just treat it like every other therapy I've tried and just drop it. So Clara was already going against the current when she was paired with me, but within the first 2 minutes of our first session, my wall immediately dropped and I felt safe, heard, and like she ACTUALLY wanted to be there and to help. By the end of our first session, I felt amazing and she has been nothing but phenomenal since. I genuinely feel heard and not so heavy when I talk to her. 10000000/10 I recommend her!

Aug 2023

It has been great so far, just after 2 weeks I surely started to move into feeling much better especially for my day to day function which I am grateful for. She is great!

May 2023

Clara is the best. She is so understanding, caring, professional and the list of positive traits goes on. I highly recommend Clara because she really understands what’s going on and is always so helpful and provides actionable items to help.

Clara is absolutely phenomenal. She always challenges me when I think of something but also provides her honest opinion and gives advice in a way that is comforting and actionable. Over time I have a level of comfort with her and it feels like I'm talking to a family member who is non judgemental, and caring. I highly recommend Clara for anyone who is looking. I also enjoy our few minutes of sports talk.

A.N.·Oct 2021

I have never been in therapy before. I was very nervous to start, but Clara created such a welcoming and comfortable place to chat. I was at one of my lowest points when I started BetterHelp. However, I can honestly say, that she not only helped me get through that low period, but she gave me the tools to become a better version of myself today. If you feel like no one in the world cares about you, then you haven't met Clara. I would highly recommend Clara not only for her professionalism but for her genuine heart and compassion.

Finding her was fate because she is the realest therapist I’ve ever had. She connected with me right away and is such a genuine person. Her advice is so helpful and she constantly messages me worksheets and questions to think of and tools to use to help me grow into who I want to be. I’ve only been seeing her 2 weeks and I already see a huge difference. I am at peace knowing I have her to help me in my lowest moments while i learn to work on my problems. I would recommend her to anyone and I wish her the absolute best in her career she deserves it and stands out 100% more than any other therapist.
