Evergreen Journey Counseling
About Claudia
My name is Claudia Ocampo, MS, LPC-S, RPT-S™.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor™, and an Approved EMDR Consultant. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology in 2003 and Master of Science in Counseling Psychology in 2008. I'm also an Approved CE Provider for the Association of Play Therapy and EMDR International Association.
​
Since 1999, I have been helping people define and achieve goals to overcome personal obstacles. Having a wide range of intensive training in EMDR, IFS, Sand Therapy, Play Therapy and Neuroscience allows for specialized care for adults, teenagers, and children alike. This custom-tailored counseling style focuses on creativity and expressive arts rather than more conventional talk therapy. In this restorative process, we utilize approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Parts of Self (IFS), Sand Therapy, Play Therapy, Somatic Approaches and Expressive Arts to better help clients become the best version of themselves.
​
Let me help you learn and develop better ways to handle the issues that are standing in the way of your goals.

I am also dedicated to helping new clinicians thrive in their practice by building both confidence and competence in specialized therapeutic approaches. As an experienced supervisor and consultant, I offer tailored guidance to LPC-Associates, clinicians or school counselors working toward their Registered Play Therapist (RPT™ or SB-RPT™) certification, and therapists pursuing EMDR certification or a consultant designation.
My supervision and consultation style focuses on providing clinicians with the tools, insights, and strategies needed to navigate complex cases while enhancing their clinical skills. With personalized support, I help clinicians deepen their understanding of therapeutic modalities and grow into their professional roles. By investing in high-caliber supervision and consultation, you gain access to a wealth of expertise, proven methods, and a mentor committed to your ongoing development and success in this field.
Let me help you become the clinician you aspire to be, equipped with the confidence and skills to thrive. ​​
Another one of my passions is supporting fellow therapists and their families in their personal pursuit of mental health and wellbeing. I understand and connect with the unique challenges that can arise in this career. With a deep understanding of the demands of the therapeutic profession, I can offer a supportive space for therapists navigating their own emotional experiences, for their children struggling various issues and for their spouses who might need outside support.
Whether you're navigating the emotional complexities of your profession, seeking guidance for your child or are the spouse of a therapist, I offer a compassionate and insightful space to explore and address these unique experiences.
