Getting to know Patricia Carlos

Hi there, I'm Patricia! Hello! My name is Patricia Carlos, and I am a bilingual Spanish-speaking Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I work with adults 18+ and specialize in treating depression, anxiety, life transitions, stress, grief, and trauma. I utilize various treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). My approach My approach to providing therapy is client-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed. The most common theoretical approaches I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I work with clients to determine which approach will work best given their presenting challenges. My focus I work with a wide range of clients from young adults to older adults with various conditions including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, stress, life transitions, trauma, and grief. My communication style I am empathic, warm, non-judgmental, and an active listener, striving to make my clients feel understood and respected. I work from a client-centered approach, meaning I meet my clients where they are and support them in making desired changes. I may also challenge my clients to promote growth or offer a different perspective. My journey to mental healthcare Since I was a child, I have enjoyed helping others. I participated in various mentorship programs in high school and continued this passion after college. Drawn to social justice, I decided to pursue my Master's in Social Work to help both communities and individuals. What drives me is making a difference in people's lives and supporting them in healing.
