About Ray Santos (He/Him)
Ray Santos helps adults and seniors across Ohio navigate life’s challenges with clarity, stability, and renewed purpose through compassionate, evidence-based mental health care at LifeStance Health. Through individual therapy, Ray supports clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma, while also addressing concerns such as ADHD and substance use. His approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, along with additional therapeutic methods, to help clients build practical coping skills and achieve meaningful, lasting change.
Ray has a strong clinical focus on supporting individuals who have been recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital, offering thoughtful, structured care during a critical transition period. He is passionate about helping clients regain stability, reduce the risk of relapse, and rebuild confidence as they reintegrate into daily life. His steady, empathetic presence creates a safe space for healing while reinforcing resilience and long-term wellness.
With decades of experience since beginning practice in 1996, Ray brings seasoned clinical insight to his work, helping clients manage complex conditions such as anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns. He also supports individuals navigating midlife transitions and other significant life changes, tailoring treatment plans to meet each person’s goals. While these are key areas of focus, he offers additional support across a broad range of mental health needs.
Outside of his clinical work, Ray values spending quality time with family and staying active through hiking, biking, and fitness. He also enjoys traveling, cooking, and watching movies, which help him maintain balance and connection in his own life.
