About David

Dr. David Carlini is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a decade of experience helping people address stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, career concerns, relationship difficulties, anger, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

He combines psychological insight with practical experience to support clients seeking greater motivation, confidence, and clearer direction in work and personal life. His background includes a master's degree in social work and additional clinical supervision that underpin his direct work with individuals.

Dr. Carlini integrates several evidence-informed methods into care, drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and mindfulness-oriented practices to tailor sessions to each person.

He also pays attention to attachment dynamics, communication patterns, and control issues when they affect mood or functioning. In addition to clinical practice, his previous roles in health administration bring familiarity with the organizational side of career and professional challenges.

He offers services in English from Florida and conducts sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Dr. Carlini commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based approaches in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-based work explores patterns in close relationships and how they influence feelings and reactions, often assisting people facing communication problems or control issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to understand goals, preferences, and life context, then adapt methods so they feel practical and relevant rather than prescriptive. Sessions can blend techniques over time as needs evolve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules or geographic limitations. These options allow ongoing work without commuting and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, while still allowing licensed professionals to deliver structured therapeutic interventions.
