Stephane Carvalho

Therapist

Virtual • Boston, MA


Hi, I’m Stephane Carvalho, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts. Originally trained as a psychologist in Brazil, I now work with individuals, couples, and families to help them build stronger, more connected relationships.

Whether you’re navigating conflict, communication challenges, anxiety, or the desire to reconnect with yourself, therapy can be a space to understand your emotional patterns and create change that lasts.

As an immigrant therapist, I deeply understand what it means to navigate life between cultures — finding belonging while holding on to your roots. That perspective shapes the way I support clients from diverse backgrounds, always honoring their stories, identities, and values.

I cannot move mountains for you, but I can help you climb. Facing fears, healing from loss, finding meaning and joy - these are the inevitable tasks of life. Therapy may be your first step or your last resort. Often people avoid it all together because they believe their pain is too great, worry they will be judged or that their situation is too complicated. Some people believe they should solve problems on their own or only with family and friends. However, while family and friends may want the best for us, they often come with opinions or past hurts. Sometimes it helps to have a safe space outside your daily experience.

Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile! My name is Mike and I am glad you're here!

I received my masters degree in counseling from Fitchburg State University in 2017. After graduating, I started my career as a trauma-informed in home family therapist wherein I worked primarily with children, adolescents, and their caregivers teaching communication skills, coping strategies, addressing safety concerns, and working to improve stability in a home environment. Since 2022 I have worked as an outpatient counselor working with a range of clients from ages 6 to adult. I love working with a variety of clients, and focus especially on treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and identity.

Hello! I have had the honor of working with folks struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief as well as many other difficult issues for over 20 years. I believe healing happens when we honor the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. My work is grounded in holistic and trauma-informed approaches that recognize each individual’s innate capacity for healing. I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment during each session. My style is collaborative and interactive and I often pull from a variety of techniques and modalities.
