Aleksandr Raynov has worked in the field of mental health since 2005 and brings 19 years of clinical experience. He holds a Master of Social Work from Adelphi University School of Social Work and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York (NY LCSW 077663). He also earned a master’s degree in mechanical engineering.
Before entering mental health care, he worked in several other industries, including as a Mechanical Engineer, CNC operator, first responder in New York, and an IT consultant for a multinational company. Those diverse professional roles contribute to a broader perspective on clients’ goals and challenges.
His clinical background includes work in inpatient hospital units, outpatient clinics, private practice, and in clients’ homes within the community. He uses a strengths-based approach and aims to help people recognize and develop the resources they already possess.
Aleksandr has experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, family issues, motivation and self-esteem concerns, anger and confidence problems, and depression.
Many people ask whether meeting with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is scheduling flexibility. People can connect with therapists in the format that fits their routines and comfort level - by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it simpler to keep appointments and integrate therapy into daily life.
Therapists offering online sessions are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they need a different fit. For many individuals, online therapy provides an accessible and practical way to pursue support for everyday mental health concerns.
