John Claros

Seeking therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe that healing begins through genuine connection, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they navigate life's challenges and work toward meaningful change.

As a bilingual therapist (English and Spanish), I have experience working with adults, children, adolescents, couples, families, veterans, and at-risk youth. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, parenting concerns, abuse, neglect, and co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. These experiences have strengthened my passion for helping people build resilience, discover their strengths, and create lasting, positive change.

I recognize that every person's story is unique, so I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs and goals. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and other therapeutic approaches to help you gain insight, develop practical coping skills, and move toward the life you want.

I am certified in various evidence based practices. I have also received specialized training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), allowing me to support individuals and couples through trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions with proven, effective treatment approaches.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, working through past experiences, navigating relationship difficulties, or simply looking for support during a challenging season of life, I look forward to helping you find healing, growth, and hope.

Beginning therapy is a courageous step, and you don't have to navigate it alone. I believe therapy is a journey of healing, growth, and self-discovery, where we'll work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

My approach is rooted in compassion, respect, and collaboration. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel safe to share your experiences and explore the challenges you're facing. Together, we'll identify your strengths, develop practical tools, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you're healing from the past, navigating current challenges, or seeking personal growth, my goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and hopeful throughout your journey.

In order for change to take place, I believe in compatibility between the client and therapist. I welcome you to reach out if you have any questions or concerns or would like a free 15 minute consultation to discover whether this is a process you would like to start.
