I have worked as a clinician in mental health for over 25 years.

After growing up in Massachusetts, a lifetime of travel opened my eyes and heart to the many ways people live and make meaning of experience. This perspective has informed the strengths-based, person-centered approach to my work as a therapist and coach. Social work has been central to my professional life long before receiving my degree. I began my career leading youth programs before moving to domestic violence advocacy work and program facilitation of women's groups. Through a narrative therapy lens, I work with clients to make meaning of their life experiences and live more closely to the values they feel are most important.

My name is Claudia Orfao-Martin, and I am a licensed independent clinical social worker. I have been treating clients for more than forty years, and I work primarily with children, adolescents, adults, and geriatric clients. I see individuals, couples and families, and I have been working virtually for more than five years. Because of the variety of clients with whom I work, I have an eclectic approach to treatment.

My ideal client is someone who struggles with depression, anxiety, grief, lack of confidence, stress, and feeling overwhelmed. If you want to learn coping strategies, identify triggers, learn about symptoms, and find your inner strength, then consider partnering up with me to improve your mental health.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore their patterns, thoughts, and unique stories. They may be struggling with anxiety or depression or haven't fully processed traumas and attachment issues in their lifetime.

This person is motivated for change and seeks more insight about themselves.

I have experience working with Individuals, Couples, and Families of First responders and marginalized communities struggling with the challenges of complex trauma impacting mental health, including Anxiety, Depressive disorders, PTSD, and substance use disorders.

In my role as counselor, I’m guided by a desire to deeply understand who you are, how you see yourself and your place in the world, and the changes you want to make to lead a more fulfilling life. People are only able to reach a space of true healing and growth when they feel a deep-seated sense of safety. I work hard to create this by making space for intersecting identities and intentionally challenging thoughts and feelings that have historically caused clients to feel ashamed. No one should have to suffer alone. The therapy process can be an onerous and vulnerable one; it can also be transformative and joyful.

It can be challenging and scary to seek counseling and to take the first steps toward desired change. Being aware of that, Latrese is grateful and eager about the opportunity to meet people where they are and to help them get to where they want to be.
