Therapists in 07042

My name is Carlo and I am a licensed clinical social worker. My therapeutic approach is to actively listen to gain an understanding of you as a whole person. This is done with the goal of attaining an awareness not only of the issues you face but the strengths you possess which can be tapped into to help enact a collaboratively-developed and individualized plan of action that facilitates reaching your short and long term mental health and personal goals. Depending on the needs and goals of the client, I typically use interventions based in Cognitive-Behavioral, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic and Solution Focused therapies.

Old patterns holding you back? Stress and anxiety gripping you? Do you just want to feel happier? Suffering from grief; or dealing with remembered trauma from childhood such as physical or sexual abuse? Problems in your relationships, with a partner/your child?

A profound near-death experience sparked my search for meaning and purpose in life, and has inspired me to guide others on their own journey toward healing and transformation. I specialize in working with the highly-sensitive person–those who feel everything strongly, but may be unsure of how to manage those emotions. Anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and relationship issues are just some of what we can experience when we are out of alignment with our True Self. We may turn to all sorts of distractions, unhealthy relationships or addictions, to cope with what is fundamentally a feeling of discomfort within our own skin.

I am a LSW, and currently work with adults, families, and couples. I work with many people who experience a wide array of life changes and challenges. I support my clients by being non-judgmental and realistic. Working collaboratively and utilizing the therapeutic relationship to the fullest, I aim to help clients take what is learned into their world.

Change, stress, transition, relationship struggles, self-doubt, fear, anger, loneliness, loss...these are some of the issues I help my clients to navigate successfully. Maybe there is a problem you've tried to resolve on your own and you've reached an impasse. Or you have a teen whose behavior is worrisome, and you're not sure whether it's "just adolescence" or something of greater concern. With over 20 years of experience, dedication and compassion, I will work with you to uncover obstacles and find solutions.

You might be wondering how Art Therapy can make a difference in your life and how it can help to overcome personal challenges. Creative interventions provide a safe space for you to gradually explore, identify, and move through feelings in productive and insightful directions. I will listen to you and together we will take a creative journey toward healing and restoration. Building trust, strengthening relationships and avoiding destructive patterns can be so hard to manage. Accessing your creative process will reduce the fears that hold you back from experiencing the joys of everyday life. I welcome the chance to work with you.

Welcome to my page! I am a passionate licensed clinical social worker looking to support millennials through the challenges they face. As a millennial myself, I understand the unique experiences and pressures this generation encounters, such as navigating life changes, managing anxiety, and battling the prevalent tendency to people please. I provide practical tools and psychological strategies to help millennials break free from this harmful pattern, empowering them to prioritize their own well-being and establish healthier boundaries.

As human beings, our lived experiences are often stressful, anxiety producing, and at times traumatic. As a psychotherapist who has been practicing for 20 years, my goal is to create nurturing environments where individuals can process thoughts and feelings, gain new insights, and work to develop more productive ways of coping with their lives and relationships. I aim to develop a secure therapeutic alliance with my clients, based on trust, a sense of safety, and respect.
