About Mabel
Mabel Castro is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of practice. She works from Florida and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Her style is down-to-earth and direct, aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
Mabel named her practice Meraki Therapy to reflect the care she brings to sessions. She values honesty and a non-judgmental tone so people feel safe talking about hard things.
Background and approach
Early meetings focus on what is getting in the way of daily functioning and happiness. Her sessions often include straightforward tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, with homework to practice new skills between meetings. She also uses mindfulness and acceptance strategies to help people notice and respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings.
Mabel supports people coping with relationship strain, trauma or abuse, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses caregiver stress, blended family challenges, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and problems tied to aging or chronic health conditions. Telehealth is a regular part of her work, and she offers video, phone, chat, and text-based formats.
The aim is to fit therapy into a busy life so progress happens in small, practical steps.

Online support
How evidence-based methods work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts without getting stuck in them and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and decisions about what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT often includes short homework tasks to practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, preferences, and daily life and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different rhythms. Video lets you use visual cues and full conversations. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for quick check-ins, brief reflections, or ongoing support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules and let people try different formats as needs change.
