About Carlos

Carlos Beivides is an LCSW with ten years of clinical experience based in New York. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. He describes a direct, work-focused approach and looks for clients who want active, practical work in therapy.

Carlos uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of his work. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Imago Relationship Therapy. Sessions tend to focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different ways of responding to them.

He has a background in clinical social work and a record of working with trauma-related concerns, including post-traumatic stress. He also has experience addressing issues such as substance impact on daily life, grief, and problems that affect returning to everyday roles.

In sessions Carlos breaks larger goals into concrete steps. He helps people notice patterns of thinking and behavior, try new skills, and review what did or did not work. Meetings include direct feedback and practical exercises to practice between sessions.

He emphasizes collaboration about goals and pacing. Carlos encourages clients ready for focused effort and measurable progress. Prospective clients should be prepared for active participation and homework between meetings.

How his approaches translate to online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into specific tasks and exercises. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for regulating emotions and managing distress, often using step-by-step practice and skill coaching. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's perspective and uses reflective listening to clarify goals and choices.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. He will review goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before recommending methods. Decisions about techniques and pacing happen together so the plan fits the person's needs and capacity for active work.

Confirm the current session options before booking because this profile does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in their everyday setting. The therapist and client discuss how to schedule sessions and which methods are most practical for the person's routine.
