About David

Dr. David Carlini is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and self-esteem struggles. He also supports people facing career challenges, coaching needs, relationship concerns, and major life changes. He practices in Florida and conducts therapy in English.

He describes therapy as a practical conversation about how feelings affect daily life. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that fuel stress or anger and on building simple tools to change them. He emphasizes real-world results such as better coping, clearer communication, and improved confidence at work and home.

David draws on several familiar approaches in his work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot thought patterns that feed anxiety and anger. Client-centered work creates space for people to be heard and for their own priorities to guide change. He also uses mindfulness and narrative ideas to help people notice reactions and retell stressful experiences in less harmful ways.

He brings about 10 years of clinical experience and a background in health administration to sessions. That administrative experience informs how he frames career and executive coaching conversations without replacing therapy. His credential is LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

David says each person is unique and prefers to begin by learning what matters most to the individual. He works collaboratively to choose goals and practical steps that fit a client’s life and schedule.

Approaches that translate well to remote sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape reactions today; it can aid someone struggling with control issues or repeated communication problems. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities, giving space for people to set the pace and goals of work together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with clear exercises and homework, making it useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made and priorities change.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and let therapeutic exercises be reviewed between meetings. It can also allow follow-up conversations that focus on applying new skills at work or home. Licensed professionals adapt tools like CBT worksheets, mindfulness practices, and narrative reflection so they remain practical and usable in everyday life.
