Carlos Beivides

Carlos Beivides is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression, and pays special attention to isolation and loneliness when they come up. He speaks plainly and expects active work from people who want to make big changes.

He draws on ten years of experience and uses approaches that help people reshape unhelpful thinking, regulate strong emotions, and improve relationships. Sessions aim to be direct and goal-focused while still making room to name painful memories and reactions. Carlos encourages practical steps between sessions so progress continues outside the room.

He often helps people manage post-traumatic stress, first responder and veteran-related struggles, guilt and shame, social anxiety, and the fallout from sexual assault or traumatic brain injury. He also supports people dealing with commitment, communication, control, and family problems.

Carlos describes therapy as a collaborative effort. He listens for what matters most, then uses methods like cognitive behavioral work, emotion-focused techniques, and skills from dialectical behavior approaches to address those priorities. He balances challenge with support and checks in on how strategies are working.

People who begin work with him fill out an initial matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. He emphasizes practical changes, steady effort, and clear goals to help people move toward a more manageable day-to-day life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating an accepting space so people can find their own answers; it helps when someone wants to clarify values and make steady life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses specific exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to help manage intense emotions and improve interactions with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what methods feel most useful. That collaborative step helps shape which tools and exercises are used in sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use video or phone options that suit the moment - for example, a quick phone check-in when bandwidth or time is limited, or a longer video session for skills practice and deeper conversation.
