About Clara

Clara Angulo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with ten years of professional experience. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, anger, and a range of life changes. Clara also addresses concerns linked to trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

She frames therapy as a practical space to talk through what gets in the way of daily life. Sessions focus on real problems like snapping at loved ones, workplace frustration, or built-up resentment. Clara uses straightforward, evidence-based approaches to teach strategies people can use between sessions.

Her clinical work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. That mix aims to help people notice patterns, change unhelpful reactions, and build new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Clara emphasizes concrete tools such as mindfulness skills, emotion regulation techniques, and values-based action. She also integrates motivational interviewing and parts of positive psychology to keep work focused and practical. Sessions can explore family of origin influences, abandonment or attachment wounds, and how past losses shape current behavior.

People who choose Clara will find a clinician who speaks Spanish and English and who centers problem solving alongside personal reflection. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How sessions work

How Clara’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, purposeful steps toward those values while learning to let go of unhelpful struggles. ACT can be useful for anger that comes from feeling stuck or controlled. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that feed emotional reactions and practicing new responses; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete emotion regulation and interpersonal skills that help when reactions escalate quickly.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Clara will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions include practical goal-setting and trying a few tools to see what helps most.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Remote work can also allow flexible scheduling around shifts, caregiving, or work hours. Ask about language options and any scheduling considerations when you complete the matching questionnaire.
