Getting to know Francesco DiCarlo

Hi, my name is Francesco DiCarlo. I’ve dedicated my career to helping people navigate challenges and experience the understanding and support we all deserve. Life can feel overwhelming, confusing, or isolating at times, especially when it seems like no one truly understands what you’re going through. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, safe, and affirming environment where individuals can feel genuinely understood, supported, and empowered.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating Anxiety, Depression, anger management, ADHD, life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional regulation challenges. My focus is on helping you reflect, grow, and make practical changes in your life. Therapy with me is both validating and action-oriented: helping you process emotions, explore patterns, and learn tools to navigate life more effectively. My approach combines warmth, compassion, and approachability with structure and evidence-based strategies. I integrate CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and a Person-Centered approach, tailoring each approach to your unique needs. I work to ensure therapy is practical, collaborative, and focused on both insight and actionable change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My goal is that therapy leaves you feeling understood, supported, and equipped with tools to face life with clarity, confidence, and resilience. Together, we’ll focus on amplifying your strengths, navigating challenges, and creating meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your goals.

Francesco is a truly wonderful therapist whose warmth, insight, and authenticity make him incredibly easy to connect with. In my personal experience working with him during a particularly difficult time in my life, I found him to be deeply thoughtful, compassionate, and attentive in the way he approaches both people and the therapeutic process. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the people he works with, and that care comes through in the way he listens and in the safe and supportive environment he creates. I truly cannot recommend him enough!!
Francesco really makes you feel seen and heard. He has great insight, really knowledgeable, and very empathetic. I am very grateful for his support.
Francesco is a phenomenal therapist. He has helped me through a really difficult time in my life. When I first started seeing him, I was struggling with anxiety and depression and going through challenges in my career and relationship. He created a space where I felt comfortable being honest and working through things without feeling judged. His support and insight have made a huge difference for me. I would recommend Francesco to anyone looking for a thoughtful and supportive therapist.
Francesco was excellent. I began sessions with him during a turbulent year in my life. I had no issues or hesitations telling him what was going on. I was always at ease, and without question learned skills and mechanisms to make what I was dealing with in life a lot easier to handle. I'd absolutely recommend him to folks that may be searching for a new therapist!
