Claire Nana

Claire Nana is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who helps people tackle eating and food-related issues along with anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. She emphasizes practical steps people can use right away. Her tone is direct and encouraging, focused on helping clients find what matters to them and move forward.

Claire uses clear conversation to identify patterns that cause distress. She listens for what a person values and then helps shape goals around those values. Sessions often include reflecting on habits, noticing how thoughts and feelings show up, and experimenting with small behavior changes.

Her background blends long-term psychotherapy and coaching. She has presented at international conferences and written continuing education courses for other therapists, which informs her clinical thinking. Claire brings problem-solving skills and a curiosity about how people make meaning in their lives.

The approach in session is collaborative and respectful. She aims to empower people rather than tell them what to do. Clients can expect an emphasis on understanding life choices, building on strengths, and practical ways to reduce distress over time.

Outside of clinical work, Claire pursues endurance sports and dressage with rescue horses, which she says keeps her grounded. She accepts international clients and offers sessions from Colorado.

How Claire’s Approaches Shape Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person in front of the clinician. It emphasizes listening closely, reflecting what’s most important, and helping clients steer sessions based on their priorities. This approach can help with shame around eating, body image, and relationship concerns.

Existential Therapy invites people to look at meaning, choice, and values. It helps when someone feels stuck, unsure about life direction, or struggling with purpose after loss or big change. The work often focuses on what matters most and small steps toward a more meaningful life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That choice can change as therapy moves forward and needs evolve.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life, which can help people keep momentum. If you want to connect from outside Colorado, note that the biography accepts international clients; confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can reduce travel time and make brief check-ins or coaching-style conversations easier to arrange while maintaining focus on values and behavior change.
