Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Hello! I specialize in working with adults at any stage in life struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression. University life can understandably be stressful, whether its having to adjust your routines, habits, and coping skills to new life experiences, adjusting to a new diagnosis, or planning for the future. Whether in an undergraduate, graduate, or PHD program, students often feel they benefit from support while navigating life changes and experiences. I have worked with students on various goals, many of which who are looking to develop healthy habits, navigate social relationships, overcome procrastination, manage low energy and motivation, deal with difficulty focusing, paying attention, perfectionism, and managing distractions, among many others. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who understand the unique challenges and experiences that come from living with ADHD and how it coexists with other mental health symptoms, because therapy should be a place where you feel understood and supported in being yourself and living a life that works for you. Sessions with me are collaborative and strengths based to support your personal goals. I offer a free 15 minute consultation appointment to see if we would be a good fit in working together to meet your therapy goals. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, New York and Massachusetts (LMHC-D)/Licensed Professional Counselor, Arkansas (LPC) and a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. I have a Master's in Marriage, Couple, and Family Counseling and a Master's in Early Childhood and Elementary Education, I taught for five years before joining the mental health profession. My experience as a mental health therapist involves working with clients of all ages, from preschool to adults, as well as with families, and couples. By implementing various interventions and techniques, the client is able to gain insight into their strengths, as well as discover new coping skills. I enjoy working with the client to help them gain insight into themselves, and their family system. I am passionate to be a mental health therapist, and am happy to offer support wherever I can. I strive as a therapist to help guide and support my clients in a safe and non-judgmental environment. I focus on the whole picture of mental health, and take time to separate and process the many Google tabs we tend to keep open. I am neurodivergent and enjoy working with the neurodivergent population.

Choosing to start therapy is a brave and meaningful step, and I’m honored to walk alongside you on this journey. My approach focuses on creating a welcoming, compassionate space where we can explore your experiences together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

I’m currently pursuing a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Northcentral University, with a specialization in working with LGBTQ+ couples and families. My background includes experience in Crisis Counseling through The Trevor Project, where I had the privilege of supporting LGBTQ+ youth during some of their most difficult moments. I’m deeply passionate about helping individuals and couples work through relationship complexities, identity concerns, and the pressures of society. Whether you’re healing from family rejection, seeking to improve communication, or striving to build resilience, I’m committed to helping you foster healing and deeper connections. My therapeutic approach integrates models like Emotionally Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy, which enable me to address relational dynamics, empower clients to reshape their narratives and provide an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals and families. My ultimate goal is to help you cultivate a sense of belonging while honoring your unique path.

I offer compassionate evidence-based support to help clients navigate life’s challenges and build emotional resilience. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and collaborate with clients to identify unhealthy patterns of behavior, replacing them with healthier more constructive approaches. I also specialize in Grief Counseling and provide a safe space to process loss; honor loved ones’ memories with dignity. I also utilize Sandtray therapy which uses creative, hands-on exploration to access emotions and insights that words alone may not express. I am also trained in the following evidenced-based modalities that help clients become solution-focused on a collaborative effort: Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gottman Method Therapy (couples), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Cognitive Processing Training, Written Exposure Therapy and Strength-Based Therapy. Through these modalities, I aim to foster healing, self-understanding, and personal growth in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment.

I believe that anyone can benefit from counseling, whether or not you have a significant mental health issue or are just facing stressful situations and life transitions. I work collaboratively with each individual client to form goals and a treatment plan that is as unique as the person I'm working with. Common issues that I help clients with include (but are not limited to): anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, anger management, relationship issues, LGBTQIA issues and concerns, self-esteem, family issues, and overall self-improvement. Some clients are looking for short-term counseling to address a specific issue that they currently face, while others are looking for long-term counseling to work through issues from the past or to learn to cope with chronic symptoms. I am here to help no matter where you fall on that spectrum! I am also happy to speak with you on the phone before setting up an initial appointment to determine if I am a good fit for what you hope to get out of therapy.

Maybe you feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, or overwhelming life transitions. Perhaps you’re struggling with relationship difficulties, unresolved trauma, or the pressure of constant change. You might long for healthier connections, steadier emotions, or simply the ability to breathe without feeling on edge. My clients come to therapy seeking relief, understanding, and growth. They want to feel calmer in their daily lives, more confident in their choices, and more connected in their relationships. Most of all, they want to stop feeling stuck and start moving forward with clarity and strength.

I pull from my personal, spiritual and clinical experience. I have extensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for 20 years. Also, trained in family systems therapy with a focus on immigrant, relational and transitional difficulties. Discovering life in the moment and addressing obstacles to achieve emotional health is my main focus.

Adulting is hard! The decisions you face about school, work and relationships can be confusing. You may be struggling with alcohol or other substance use. With compassion and without judgment, I'll help you figure out if it's causing a problem for you. During my years as a therapist, I've helped people with mental and emotional health problems, such as depression, anxiety, trauma and family issues. I really enjoy working with young adults and helping them answer questions about who they are, what they want to do and where they want to go in life. I'll help you navigate life transitions and work with you on your discovery to create your best self.

I have been working in the outpatient setting for over 10 years. I've rotated through a student mental health clinic during my training and have worked with many college aged students. College can be an exciting time of change and growth and finding purpose and connection. College can also be a big adjustment, as you acclimate to a new setting, new responsibilities and being away from home for an extended period, sometimes for the first time. It is often during these big life changes that you may need a little extra help settling in, getting into new routines. Through a combination of therapy and careful use of medication, we can work on getting you in a place to fully engage in and enjoy your college experience.

I can provide excellent listening skills, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard for all clients.
