About Clara
Clara D'agostino is a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Clara also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and women’s issues.
Clara's style is practical and person-focused. She uses client-centered and solution-focused methods to set clear goals and identify small steps forward. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to help people find calmer moments and stronger presence amid stress.
Her approach emphasizes exploring what matters now and what can change next. Sessions often include talking, guided mindfulness exercises, and creative activities when helpful. Clara aims to help people notice patterns that limit them and try new ways of responding.
Clara has worked in clinical settings for two decades and brings that experience into one-on-one work. She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to understand how relationships affect current patterns. Her practice is aimed at helping people who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health think through practical options.

How Clara’s approaches translate to online work
Clara uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. This approach helps when relationship patterns or early bonds show up as anxiety, trust issues, or repeating conflicts.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the client's experience and priorities. This method supports people who want to clarify values, life purpose, or next steps after a change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clara will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the focus over time rather than sticking to one fixed plan.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. Some online formats are better for focused check-ins or shorter appointments, while others let people use guided mindfulness and reflective exercises more easily. Licensed professionals and therapists use these differences to match the session style to practical needs and daily routines.
