Getting to know Carlos Velazquez
Hi there, I'm Carlos!
My name is Carlos Velazquez, and I am a licensed therapist with a Master's in Social Work from Florida State University. I have worked with individuals seeking help for over 14 years.
My approach
My counseling style is a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I believe this combination is highly effective in helping you make meaningful and sustained change.
My focus
I enjoy working with and helping those who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and/or relationship issues.
My communication style
Let's work together to finally overcome your fears and negative thoughts that keep you from living your life to the fullest.
My journey to therapy
My best hope is to help you change the way you look at the events in your life, improve your mood, and increase your curiosity for life.
My first session with you
During the first therapy session, you can expect to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and what you hope to achieve from our sessions. I may ask questions about your personal history, current situation, and any symptoms or issues you may be experiencing. I may also ask about your support system, coping mechanisms, and any previous experiences with therapy. It is important to note that the first session is typically an opportunity for you and me to get a feel for each other to ensure a successful relationship.
