Getting to know Kiritin (Ray) Ramnarace
Hi all. My name is Kiritin; however, I go by Ray. I do not accept insurance, as it is crucial to review my rate. I am a licensed therapist (LMHC) in that I seek to guide individuals who are experiencing anxiety and depression of all forms towards self-betterment. My goal for all my clients is for them to be able to live their lives authentically and to their true potential through therapy sessions. My approach primarily includes a combination of psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and client-centered therapy to establish a welcoming, safe, nonjudgmental and empathic atmosphere. Through this approach, I work with client collaboratively for them to achieve their goals pertaining to their mental well-being.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As an Indo-Caribbean therapist, I have extensive experience working with the West Indian and the BIPOC communities. I have guided individuals who are part of marginalized communities towards success and overcoming societal barriers. My therapeutic style includes providing/establishing a calming, secure and compassionate atmosphere for clients to safely express themselves while simultaneously working on their therapy goals. As I work with clients through a collaborative approach, I will guide them towards pathways that will direct them towards self-fulfillment and achievement of their goals in therapy.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Prior to establishing the first session, I establish with clients a phone consultation session that lasts 15 minutes (which is free of charge) in that I gather basic information regarding their motives for seeking therapy. During the first session, I conduct an intake that includes gathering detailed information about their respective circumstances. As sessions progress, the dialogue between myself and the client becomes a working collaboration in that I provide guidance through the analysis of their thoughts and behaviors in connection with their respective situation, which can yield knowledge that the client can utilize to achieve their goals.

Kiritin was super helpful, attentive, and patient with my needs. He is different from other therapists that I've seen because he takes the time to thoroughly listen to my needs and the kind of support I prefer to have from a professional, rather than assume a certain kind of treatment will work best for me. Highly recommend!

Having Ray as a therapist is quite refreshing because of his calm demeanor and approach in therapy. He is wise and reflective in sessions, which causes me to reflect on myself. He is able to help me discern pathways in my life that can be of betterment for me. His character of sympathy and attentiveness also has played a role in the improvement that I have seen in myself throughout our sessions.
