Nathan Maranto, MSW, LCSW

affiliate Counselor in Prairieville

Nathan earned his Master of Social Work from Louisiana State University, where he completed his advanced-year internship at LSU Mental Health Service. Following graduation, he worked with adolescents at Capital Area Human Services before returning to LSU in 2018 to serve as a counselor with Student Support Services. He later became the Clinical Director of The Well Clinic, a multidisciplinary private practice, where he provided leadership and clinical oversight while continuing to work directly with clients. Nathan now brings this experience to Neutral Ground Behavioral Health Solutions. Throughout his career, Nathan has worked with college students, adolescents, and adults, helping them navigate life transitions, identity development, grief, trauma, anxiety, and depression. He practices from an integrative, client-centered approach that fosters curiosity, self-compassion, and a warm, authentic therapeutic relationship. A Baton Rouge native, Nathan enjoys spending time with friends and family. He loves antiques and exploring his Italian heritage – especially when it involves dessert.
