Claudia Miles, LMFT

Claudia Miles is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 24 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, address addictions, navigate relationship and family conflicts, and find support for depression. Her work also extends to related concerns such as aging and geriatric issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication and control issues, and grief around divorce and separation.

Claudia approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she crafts conversations and treatment plans to reflect each individual’s specific needs. Her clinical style emphasizes practical coping skills alongside exploration of family of origin issues, body image, guilt and shame, and other emotional patterns that affect daily life. She supports work on forgiveness and rebuilding healthier relational patterns while addressing substance use and eating or food-related concerns when they arise.

Claudia acknowledges the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling and happier life, and she aims to empower people through clear guidance and collaborative planning. Her goal is to help clients move toward meaningful change at a pace that fits their circumstances and values.
