Welcome to Zen Counseling & Wellness! I am Clara, and I am deeply committed to aiding others and derive satisfaction from providing something of value that enhances your existence. I have passion to support the clients that are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in unhelpful patterns. You struggle with self-doubt, relationships, or past trauma and are seeking a safe, nonjudgmental space to heal and grow. Your goal are to understand themselves better, build resilience, and develop healthier coping tools. You want to feel more in control, connected, and authentic—because You are ready for more fulfilling life.
As a counselor, I work with you who is feeling anxious, stuck, or weighed down by past experiences. Using an eclectic approach—drawing from Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, and EMDR therapy — I help you to heal, grow, and reconnect with your inner strengths to create meaningful life.
You are not alone. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where healing and growth are possible. Let’s work together to help you move toward the life you deserve. Please feel free to reach out for a free phone consultation through the appointment section on my website, email me, or call me directly. Look forward to supporting you soon!

I deeply value multicultural sensitivity and diversity, recognizing the importance of respecting differences in appearance, behavior, and culture. When therapy and evaluation help you feel progress, it brings emotional relief and a stronger sense of connection. This fosters a deeper ability to express yourself authentically.
