Claudia Leyton-De la TorreLPC

Claudia Leyton-De la Torre is an LPC who brings a warm, honest approach to therapy. She helps people talk through anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and the stress of life changes. Sessions are conversational and straightforward, with an emphasis on feeling genuinely heard and understood.

Claudia focuses on building self-compassion and clearer communication. She supports people working on intimacy-related concerns, career stress, grief, and issues tied to gender identity and sexual orientation. Her practice also addresses body image, attachment issues, and forgiveness concerns.

Her work blends practical skills with reflective conversation. Claudia uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding. She also draws on Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas to keep sessions grounded and collaborative.

Claudia has six years of experience as a licensed professional counselor in Texas. She offers therapy in English and Spanish. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes, and she works at a pace that fits each person’s needs.

People interested in pregnancy and childbirth topics may find it helpful to bring those concerns into sessions, where Claudia can help process emotions and practical worries related to that life stage. To begin, she asks people to share what matters most and then shapes sessions to match those priorities.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical experiments to change behavior and mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering empathic listening and support while people find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying things out together and adjusting when something does not feel useful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join from different locations within Texas while keeping therapy consistent with daily life.
