About Dr.Claribel
Her sessions begin with listening. The first visit focuses on understanding your situation and clarifying short-term goals. She uses those goals to guide the work and adjusts them as progress is made.
Dr. Perez draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also integrates mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to support coping and practical problem solving.
Many of her focus areas include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, and parenting concerns. She also addresses challenges like chronic illness, body image, caregiving and aging issues, grief, and life transitions.
Her style emphasizes collaboration and building on personal strengths. Sessions aim to help people feel less overwhelmed, learn tools they can use between visits, and move toward clearer goals. The process is paced to each persons needs and priorities.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Dr. Perez uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy alongside a client-centered approach. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be practiced through structured exercises and between-session tasks. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding skills to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building on personal strengths to shape goals.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to find the mix of strategies that fits their needs and goals. Together they set practical objectives and adjust techniques based on how the work is progressing.
