Claudine has been working with children and families for over a decade in many different roles, as a child protection worker, an advocate for new nursing moms, a crisis management worker with teenagers and their families as well as a parenting support counselor. Claudine mostly tends to draw from the person-centered approach when in a therapeutic relationship with clients. This means that she makes consistent efforts to meet each client "where they are" and to serve as a catalyst to each individual who is progressing through their unique process of self-discovery and self-identification.
Claudine specializes in family dynamics, parenting and teen counseling and is experienced with grief counseling as well as individual counseling.
