About me
Life can be challenging! Taking a step out of one's comfort zone to ask for help is never easy. I would love to help you asses your current situation. Together, we can then work at making changes that are positive in the present, as well as setting goals and taking action for your future. As a Licensed Clinical Social worker and Professional School Counselor in Texas, I have supported many individuals on their journey. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults and families who are struggling with low self esteem, anxiety, parenting problems, grief or depression.
During my 19 years as a school counselor, with most of those years in Middle School, I have helped many teens and their parents navigate part of the rocky road to adulthood. I love working with this age group!
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My style combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy, utilizing a strength based, solution focused approach.
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Claudia Stephens. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Wonderful connection, been a pleasure working with Claudia
Claudia has changed my life and perspective on so many thing! I look forward to our session every week.
Claudia is a great person and a very knowledgeable and professional therapist. Seeing her is one of the highlights of my week, she’s played a key role in helping me feel better overall. She’s a great listener and also provides tools and references that have helped. Thank you Claudia!
Claudia is one, if not the best, human I know. I don't say that lightly. She is beyond incredible at the work she does. It takes someone special and she is that person. I cannot possibly express how much she's understood me, helped me drag myself out of a dark place, and become the most amazing mentor and cheerleader for my health. She is the person you're looking for.
Claudia has made starting therapy for the first time extremely easy and comfortable. She is very easy to talk to and comes from a place of familiarity and understanding.
She’s great

She's the best. Always responds and makes sure our session time is quality.
Love our sessions and is great to work with!!
Although I have only been working with Claudia for a few months, I have enjoyed my time with her immensely. Claudia is a warm and empathic counselor who manages to make her sessions comfortable and casual, while maintaining professional boundaries. I appreciate her sincerity and lack of judgement, as well as her years of continuing training and expertise in her field. I look forward to her sessions as I would for a conversation with a trusted colleague. I feel that she has helped me build confidence and appreciates my open-minded and self directed approach to therapy. She has taught me many valuable skills that I will use in my foundation as I continue to grow.
Claudia is a good listener, very caring and offers help and guidance to work through issues. I’ve definitely been blessed by her!
She's so patient and caring. She genuinely cares about her patients. I feel comfortable and know I won't get judged or misguided.
Claudia is an absolute blessing of a person. She has really helped me learn to tackle and let go of very difficult situations. I always look forward to her kind, helping spirit during our sessions and could not recommend her more to anybody else who is willing to take steps to better themselves!
Claudia is a fantastic counselor! She is compassionate, kind, and offers sound, practical guidance.
Clauda is wonderful. I wish I could afford to continue seeing her and as soon as I am, I will restart therapy. She is professional, reliable, empathetic, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.
Very encouraging
My daughter enjoys her sessions with Claudia.
She is great
