About Clara
Clara Angulo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with ten years of practice. She provides bilingual services in English and Spanish and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem and other life challenges. Clara lists family and parenting concerns among her focus areas and also supports people dealing with trauma, relationship struggles, and changes in life circumstances.
She approaches sessions in a straightforward, practical way. Conversations look at what's happening now and what patterns from the past influence daily life. Clara uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy while also drawing on acceptance-based and attachment-focused ideas.
Sessions mix talking, skill practice, and short exercises aimed at building coping skills. Clients often work on emotional regulation, clearer communication, and problem-solving for parenting and family-related stress. She also addresses sleep, eating, and work-related pressures that affect everyday functioning.
Clara highlights cultural context and language as part of the work. She notes experience in South Florida and a comfort with diverse backgrounds, and she offers services in Spanish when preferred.
Her style is practical and client-centered. People who want to examine patterns, try concrete strategies, and practice new ways of responding tend to find her approach useful. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to see if it feels like a fit.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values, which can be useful for stress, grief, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Sessions use straightforward skills to test unhelpful thinking and build more helpful habits, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Clara treats the choice of approach as a team effort. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress and needs evolve.

Online work makes it possible to practice skills between meetings and bring real-life situations into discussion, which can help apply new strategies to parenting or everyday family interactions.
