Ms. Caitlyn Stephens practices social work in Matawan, NJ, Brick, NJ, and Tinton Falls, NJ.

"Stay away. She’s not experienced enough or equipped to handle any real issues and her assessments are so off base as to be seriously detrimental. She made our issues significantly worse. At best you will only waste your time and money while your child plays in bored silence for an hour, at worse, your child will be put in harms way. Our unfortunate experience reflects the many reasons that ppl are apprehensive to put their child in therapy. We are pro-therapy but greatly regret using her services and will be going elsewhere. Stay far away. "

Ms. Rosemary Ravelo practices social work in Matawan, NJ.

"Her "office" is in her home.... but I had to walk past her living room, where her husband was watching TV, to get to her small home office. She did not offer to turn on a noice machine, and the walls did not seem insulated. Furthermore, she mentioned she went to Columbia Univesity about ten times!! I'm not sure why. The whole experience was completely unprofessional, and I felt very uncomfortable. Needless to say, I did not go back."

What is Social Work?

Strongly influenced by the concepts of human rights and social justice, social workers are professionals that help vulnerable individuals, families, and groups in need. Social work can include a variety of different jobs or careers, but in essence it involves meeting people in their home environment, identifying the issues that are causing social problems for them, and connecting them with the right resources to improve their well-being.

Social workers may work for organizations, in hospitals, in schools, for the government, at senior centers, in private practice, or in any number of public or private institutions. Many social workers choose to work with specific populations, such as children, the elderly, or the poor. Often, social work is about creating healthy communities in order to improve the lives of all people.

Some of the issues that social workers may come up against in their profession include:

Violence
Poverty
Abuse
Discrimination
Illness and lack of access to healthcare
Drug and alcohol addiction
Divorce
Death and grief
Unemployment
Disability
Mental illness
Family dysfunction

Social workers are advocates for social change. They educate clients to prevent problems from occurring or worsening. They empower others to develop to their full potential.
