Donna Ray
I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 30 years, working mostly in New York and New Jersey. My specialty practice is working with adults 18yrs and older coping with Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, and ADHD. Sometimes individuals have had traumatic experiences from early childhood or adulthood that impact coping with daily living. I provide psychotherapy for individuals who have had traumatic experiences that are impacting their relationships, managing emotional moods swings, or misusing drugs and alcohol. At this time I am not working with minors for individual Telehealth Services, however, I can provide parenting skills strategies for parents seeking guidance for the management of behavioral issues impacting the parent / child relationship. My therapeutic approach is solution focused and client centered, with compassion and respect for the client. I believe that each person is the expert of their own experiences and future goals, so I take a collaborative and non-judgmental approach, being open to feedback. Through out my years of experience and training I have developed an eclectic "tool box" of interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Treatment, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, and Psycho-dynamic psychotherapy treatments. I understand that the first most important step is finding a therapist that instills a sense of confidence, trust, and warm regard. I look forward to talking with you and to answer any questions you may have about my approach to see if we are a good fit. Thank you.

Mabel Castro
I am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the states of Florida, New Jersey, District of Columbia and Utah. The clients I work with are full of diversity and have a variety of issues in their day to day lives. Together, we overcome relational turmoil, depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. I love helping my clients heal through trauma, pain and/or negative thoughts - that’s why I named my practice Meraki Therapy. The word Meraki means to place creativity, soul and passion in what you do - I believe that is the beauty of what we do in therapy. The first couple sessions, you can expect us to dive into the root of what is getting in the way of your happiness. I take pride in being non-judgmental and easy to talk to this way you can feel comfortable in sharing your story. My therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which means you can expect to complete homework assignments focusing on your inner-self. At the moment, I am available for telehealth sessions including phone and live chats. I am very flexible in my responses and get back to you within 24 hours. It's important keep transparent communication with each other in order to build a strong therapeutic alliance.

Natalie Vance
I am an experienced and compassionate licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor (LCADC) in New Jersey with over 13 years of experience in the field. When entering college as a young student, I knew I wanted to be in the healing profession. I found social work values to align with my own and I bring those values to the work I do as a therapist. In my time providing psychotherapy, I have worked with both youth and adults. Some of my specialties include but are not limited to stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, trauma, family issues, blended family issues, & parenting issues. I utilize CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and holistic approaches, to assist my clients with actualizing their goals in therapy. I truly believe a positive experience with therapy can be transformative and the therapeutic relationship to be at the core of that transformation. In therapy, the client is the expert of their own life. To connect with my clients, I mix compassion, coaching, and a clinical approach best suited for each person's goals. I describe my style as informal and laid-back. I believe therapy doesn’t always have to feel so serious, so I use humor and personal connection to help my clients feel comfortable and understood. Outside of therapy, I enjoy reading, podcasts, and a healthy dose of social media and technology. If you're open to it, I love incorporating these interests as resources in our work together – whether it's a book recommendation, a podcast episode, or a mindfulness app. I look forward to meeting you wherever you are on your journey!
