About Caro
Caro Rodriguez-Fucci is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with five years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship and family concerns. He also focuses on issues around LGBT matters, body image, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, panic, post-traumatic stress, and sexuality.
He keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He listens to what a person has tried and what matters most now. Conversations look at feelings, patterns, and small changes a person can try between meetings. The aim is to clarify what’s getting in the way and to build manageable steps forward.
In appointments he treats each client as the expert on their life. He helps people name their strengths and use them to address current problems. He avoids jargon and prefers clear, direct talk about emotions and choices.
Caro draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on panic, post-traumatic stress, and guilt or shame related to identity, relationships, or past events. He supports people who want to understand how their reactions fit with their values, and how to reduce the power of recurring self-blame.
Sessions come with practical planning. That can include short behavioral experiments, breathing or grounding practices for panic, and steps to shift self-critical thinking. He encourages small, repeatable changes rather than big overhauls.
How evidence-based approaches guide online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques used in his work include brief cognitive strategies and exposure-based methods. Cognitive strategies focus on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts that fuel guilt and shame, while exposure-based approaches help reduce panic symptoms and avoidance by practicing manageable steps toward feared situations.He treats the choice of approach as collaborative. Together the client and therapist look at the presenting problem, goals, and what feels doable. They try approaches for a few sessions and adjust based on what helps the most for that person.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. Different formats can also support lower-bandwidth calls, shorter focused sessions for skill practice, or longer talks when more time is useful. Licensed professionals can help match the format to your needs and daily life, so plan a first meeting to establish what will work best.
