Background and approach

He aims to create a calm space where those losses can be talked through and their impact understood. Alongside grief, he helps with depression, low self-esteem, panic attacks, social anxiety and stress. He also addresses isolation, communication problems, impulsivity and questions about life purpose.

He is familiar with issues commonly described by men who find it hard to ask for help. His way of working is integrative with a person-centred core. That means he draws on different approaches to suit the person in front of him, rather than following a single method.

Sessions are conversational and paced to what feels manageable for each person. Carlos uses his background in fine arts to bring creativity into therapy when it helps. This can open up different ways to understand thoughts and feelings that are hard to name.

He aims to support people to notice small changes and take practical steps forward. For someone worried about anxiety, panic or feeling stuck, he offers steady, straightforward support and a space to make sense of what is happening.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is heard and helps the person feel understood. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem and feeling stuck.

Existential Therapy looks at life meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps when someone is grappling with questions about life purpose, identity or midlife transitions. Conversations can explore values and what matters most to the person.

Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and time. It can help bring unconscious thoughts and feelings into view so people can choose different ways of responding to stress and anxiety.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in early sessions. Together they will try ways of working and adjust the approach based on what actually helps.

Online therapy provides practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or the person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins and people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make regular therapy more possible around work, caring duties and daily life.
