About Claudia
Claudia Stoscheck is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) based in New York with 30 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family tensions, trauma and abuse, and substance concerns. Her practice also addresses grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, and the pressures that come with life changes.
Claudia uses practical methods to help people reduce distress and make changes they can use day to day. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are woven into sessions to help with emotion regulation and values-based choices.
Her approach is client-centered and direct. Sessions focus on clear problems and small experiments to test what works. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when people need strategies for managing strong emotions or interpersonal conflict.
Claudia has worked with many adults dealing with caregiving strain, blended family issues, attachment concerns, abandonment, and commitment or control problems. She also supports people facing health challenges, chronic pain, and the stresses of caregiving.
People who come to Claudia can expect straightforward conversation about goals, practical tools to try between sessions, and regular review of progress. To start, she asks about current struggles, what has been tried, and what a meaningful next step would look like.
How Claudia Uses ACT, CBT and Mindfulness Online
ACT, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting driven by them and then choose actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make choices feel unclear.CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It uses experiments and practical exercises to change unhelpful habits and improve mood and relationships.
Mindfulness therapy adds short attention practices to help with stress, sleep problems, and emotional regulation. These practices are simple and can be used between sessions to reduce reactivity.
Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s needs and preferences. The emphasis is on testing small changes and reviewing what helps.
