About Raven
Raven Wilson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and parenting concerns. Raven also supports people dealing with relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and challenges with self-esteem and intimacy.
She focuses on practical skills people can use between sessions. She helps clients notice unhelpful patterns, practice new ways of responding, and manage strong emotions. Sessions include talking through current problems, learning breathing and mindfulness tools, and trying small behavior changes that suit everyday life.
Her approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness. Those methods are used to address things like addiction, mood swings, and communication problems. Raven pays attention to how family of origin issues and codependency can affect choices and relationships.
She will work through problem areas such as impulsivity, dissociation, hoarding, and substance use by setting specific, observable steps. For parenting concerns she helps with stress linked to caregiving and the strain of family conflict. Sessions aim to improve coping, reduce isolation, and build clearer boundaries.
Raven practises in English and sees people in New York. She asks new clients to complete a brief questionnaire before scheduling a first session so she can better match goals and plan an initial meeting.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people observe thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is often used when someone wants to reduce avoidance and reconnect with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that feed low mood or avoidance.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raven will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying skills from both ACT and CBT, adding mindfulness practices, or using DBT techniques to manage intense emotions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into a busy day, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and removes travel time. Raven aims to plan sessions that work with everyday life while focusing on clear steps and coping skills.
