About Claudia
Claudia Ortega is a bilingual therapist who practices in Colorado and brings 20 years of clinical experience to her work. She speaks English and Spanish and has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, self-esteem struggles, depression, and compassion fatigue. Claudia emphasizes practical steps and clear conversation to help clients move forward.
Her approach starts by listening to each person's story and recognizing strengths they already have. She views the client as the expert on their life and uses that perspective to shape goals and next steps. Sessions focus on small, achievable changes and on building skills that fit daily life.
Claudia blends several approaches to match what a person needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act on them. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to reduce reactivity and increase focus. Client-centered methods guide a warm, respectful atmosphere where clients lead the work.
She also draws on motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when helpful, especially for people who want to understand patterns from the past. Claudia has experience with issues tied to immigration, multicultural concerns, attachment and abandonment, codependency, domestic violence, first responder stress, post-traumatic stress, and sexual assault and abuse.
Starting therapy with Claudia means taking a collaborative step. She aims to make the process straightforward, offering guidance while helping clients stay in charge of their goals and pace.
