I have worked with Carlos for 3 years since 2017. He is the first therapist I’ve had that I really click with. He understands where I am at in my life, and is able to help me see parts of my difficult situations that allow me to move past them. I have really been able to grow into myself, become more comfortable and confident with myself, and express myself more openly since working with Carlos.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have worked with Carlos for 3 years since 2017. He is the first therapist I’ve had that I really click with. He understands where I am at in my life, and is able to help me see parts of my difficult situations that allow me to move past them. I have really been able to grow into myself, become more comfortable and confident with myself, and express myself more openly since working with Carlos.
He’s the best therapist I’ve had in my life. I feel like I’ve made major progress with him.
Carlos is a kind, compassionate, friendly person who has made me feel comfortable from the start. He’s a great listener and offers thoughtful, sound advice. He challenges me to grow and question my thoughts and habits. He has been my therapist for almost 2 years and I have grown so much as a result!
I absolutely love working with Carlos. He is just amazing at what he does. He knows just what to say to help you through any situation. He is a caring and compassionate person with some many great words of advice and just enough fun to keep you interested in coming to participate in counseling.
Carlos is amazing I love him !
I came to Pride Counselling and to Carlos six months with issues on understanding myself as a gay man, my masculinity, and anger management. Over the six months, Carlos has helped me work through each session one by one in a methodic and supportive manner. Carlos speaks to me as a person, a gay man and as an athlete. He understands me and has helped me to understand that so much in our lives is intertwined: as we work one issue, we subsequently work on many at the same time. I've been impressed with how Carlos has been very responsive to my needs and offered me various ways to participate in therapy. This has ranged from long and intense messaging through short-notice phone calls to video sessions. If you are after a counsellor who can support you with any of the following, then from my own personal experience I cannot recommend Carlos enough: - Relationship issues - Anger management and stres - Sports psychology Above all, what I appreciate about Carlos is that I feel like I can tell him anything and he never ever judges me. This has meant that I've been able to open to Carlos and really work through my inner most concerns, safely and securely. This perhaps the key reason why I've made so much progress in such a short period of time.
Great counselor.
Sensitive and responsive. Great counselor.
Carlos is a good listener. I feel totally comfortable with him. He helps me work through my issues in the best way to see results. Love him.
I have only had two sessions with Carlos but I have gotten so much just out of two sessions than I ever imagined. He is not only very knowledgeable and has really great ideas for ways to accomplish a healthier relationship, but also doesn’t allow me to get in my own way. He’s sharp, funny, and I feel I can tell him anything and there’s zero judgment. He makes you feel so comfortable and I look forward to each session with him. I’m very confident that I have found the right counselor for what I need. He’s multi-faceted in his experience and that shows with the suggestions and concepts he asks me to try with my partner. Can’t wait till our next session.
I really don't have words to describe Carlos as enough as he doing with me, he's really a Good human I have ever met till now.
Very nice person. Seems to know what he’s talking about.
Carlos is AMAZING!!
Carlos is so easy going and easy to talk to! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had when it comes to therapy
I’ve worked with Carlos for several years now. They are absolutely amazing and have gotten me and my partner through some very big life changes. I’ve heard horror stories of people linking with the wrong type of therapist or counselor. I feel so lucky to have linked with him from day one.
Carlos is great and very helpful and is a great listener!
I have absolutely
Carlos and I are a great match. Carlos is so positive and respectful. Carlos asks simple, potent questions that really change the way I view myself and my relationships. Carlos gives great feedback and solution based therapy. Unlike previous therapists, I feel like I’m making so much headway and really changing my life for the better. I couldn’t ask for a better therapist!
Carlos has been very helpful to me in the short time I've been speaking with them, every time we talk I get insightful advice and it really feels like they hear what I'm saying. Having a counsellor who is familiar with my experience as an LGBTQ+ person has been incredible as well.
Carlos has been amazing. Very easy going and fun to talk to. He makes the conversion go very easily no matter the topic and has many helpful and supportive tips that have greatly helped me improve my thinking and better myself.
Carlos is compassionate sincere and well versed in gay issues
Carlos is an amazing counselor. He listens attentively and provides much needed perspective when we I need it. Thank you, Carlos!
Carlos is very enthusiastic and empathetic. I feel confident and reassured when I speak with him as he clearly has the experience necessary to identify my issues.
Carlos is a passionate and kind person with a lot of empathy. He's down to earth, and it's extremely easy to open up to him and start conversing about my life or personal struggles. His cheerful demeanor is infectious and makes our conversations shine with positivity.
I’m very happy with my counselor, he always understand my point and is very good at giving options for my therapy.
Carlos is awesome!
He is very open-minded and flexible while providing structure when appropriate. I hit the jackpot!
Carlos has really helped me a lot. From helping me sort through some heavy traumas to just reminding me that I'm okay and doing well - I haven't been this confident and self aware in years! He will help you to set short and long term goals, listening to any ranting and raving you need to do and is generally just a nice person to talk with. Also - check out his YouTube channel, his videos are a winning combo of interesting and entertaining!
I definitely love working with Carlos. It feels like I was talking with a really fun friend, who's very understanding and empathetic, and at the same time, offers really great advice/suggestions to your problem. He also made me realized that I have more qualities than I ever give credit to myself for. Thanks for everything!
I really like the style of the help. Messages are sent in a timely manner, and replies are always non-judgmental and understanding.
Carlos is amazing. He is very organized and always reply very quick. Every time I had a live session he was very punctual and addressed all the issues I was concerned about. I completely recommend him.
Carlos gets to the point. Is it always comfortable (for me) to think about and seek answers to the difficult questions - hell no! [NOT saying Carlos is making me feel uncomfortable - NOT AT ALL!] Is it necessary, and more importantly...is it working? Hell yes! He is patient, encouraging and just a nice human being who I feel absolutely comfortable with. Thank you, Carlos.
Carlos, is an amazing therapist! He goes deeper into understanding what’s really going on and he gives the best advice. He makes you think a little bit which is also a good thing. He truly tries to understand and you can tell he really cares. We love him!
We haven't been working together long, but I already feel like we've got more of a rapport than I've had with any of my previous therapists.
Carlos Cavazos es mi consejero. Es una persona muy amable y respetuosa. Lo recomiendo muchooo!!!!! Me contesta en cuanto puede.
