Getting to know Carl Kent

If you are struggling with a mind that constantly jumps to the worst-case scenario—treating "what ifs" as if they are already happening—you are not alone. Whether you are battling persistent negative thoughts, feeling a loss of pleasure in life, or noticing that anxiety and depression are spilling over into your relationships and career, taking the first step toward change is a brave choice. I am a Columbia University-trained Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Recovery and personal growth are deeply rewarding, but the process takes willingness and dedicated support. In my practice, I combine the deep insight of a psychodynamic approach with the practical tools of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Together, we will look at the root causes of your distress while actively building the coping mechanisms you need to reclaim your daily life.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

To ensure your therapy fits seamlessly into your life, my practice is 100% virtual. I offer high-quality, evidence-based psychotherapy exclusively via telehealth, allowing you to engage in healing from the absolute comfort, convenience, and privacy of your own home. Change is a journey, but you don’t have to walk it by yourself. Schedule an appointment today, and let’s begin your road to recovery together.
