About Raven

Raven Wilson is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and ADHD alongside related concerns such as self-esteem, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on a blend of evidence-based therapies to help clients develop practical coping skills, strengthen communication, and reconnect with purpose when life feels overwhelming. With six years of clinical experience, Raven emphasizes a collaborative, compassionate stance that supports clients through life transitions, family dynamics, and intimacy-related issues.

Her work addresses co-occurring problems like substance use, impulsivity, dissociation, and eating or body image struggles while attending to patterns rooted in family of origin, codependency, or isolation. Raven aims to help clients build resilience, increase self-understanding, and create sustainable change through tailored therapeutic plans.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it can help clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, which is helpful for mood disorders, stress, and many forms of anxiety. Mindfulness-based techniques teach present-moment awareness and self-regulation skills useful for managing impulsivity, emotional reactivity, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Raven treats therapy as a collaborative process, using initial sessions to learn about a client's goals and preferences and then tailoring methods from ACT, CBT, and mindfulness practices to fit those needs. This shared planning helps clients engage with interventions that feel practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue care during life transitions. These formats can support continuity of treatment, timely check-ins, and varied ways to practice skills between sessions with licensed professionals and therapists.
