Therapists for college students near New York University

I specialize in working with college aged women who have experienced sexual assault and are seeking a trauma informed, supportive space to heal. I help students process their experiences, rebuild a sense of safety and control, and develop coping skills that support both emotional well being and academic functioning. I also work with college students managing anxiety, stress, depression, relationship or dating concerns, boundary setting, family pressure, and major life transitions. Therapy is collaborative, practical, and designed to fit into the pace of college life.

Finding someone you feel comfortable with is important when searching for a therapist. Clients say I am warm, compassionate and non-judgmental, and provide a comfortable, relaxed and safe environment. My style is down to earth, and you will find it easy to talk to me and feel understood. My clients are individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, employment or relationship problems, or various life transitions. They may feel anxious, sad, angry, frustrated, depressed or confused. Sometimes they feel overwhelmed by their feelings, relationships, or life circumstances. Managing work or school, family and friendships is often demanding and stressful. I use an interactive approach to help clients re-examine fixed patterns of behavior that keep them stuck in unsatisfying situations. Past experiences, including relationships, can sometimes overload our thoughts and feelings. Increased awareness and new insights can often free clients to make more authentic and creative choices. I help clients find and build on their strengths, so that no matter what the reasons were that brought them to therapy, they become able to appreciate themselves in a deep and lasting way. Taking the step to call someone takes courage, and I look forward to receiving your call.

You may be a deep thinker/artist type who goes really deep into what matters to you. Maybe you struggle with self acceptance. You might be seeking a sense of purpose. What if you could feel better about yourself? What if your anxiety or depression started to lift and you felt some relief? What if you felt connected to your creativity and/or your sense of purpose? Imagine if you had someone in your corner to really hear your story and provide support. I provide a safe space to explore what matters to you. I routinely hear from clients that therapy with me has been instrumental in helping them to heal and start feeling like themselves again. I welcome the opportunity to speak with you about your situation. I offer free 15 minute consultations. Send me a text or an email to set something up. I look forward to meeting you!

We are a group of compassionate mental health practitioners providing treatment to children, teens, adults, couples, and families at our office in Islandia, NY & via telehealth to residents of NYS. At JWB Wellness Therapy we take a holistic and eclectic approach to the treatment we provide. By combining evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy with complementary & alternative treatment methods, we are able to tailor our services to meet each person’s individual needs and goals. We look forward to getting to know you and helping you to feel empowered to make the changes you desire.

Clients tend to approach me with conundrums that need to be fully understood: “I know what I’m feeling but I don’t know why”; “I keep finding myself in hurtful relationships and I want something different next time around”; “I’m tired of how I’m living and I’m afraid to change”; “I want to feel less lonely”; “I don’t like myself”; “The people I am closest to don’t really know me.” They want to live brightly and with much aliveness, and value being supported, known, and attuned to as they work on changing shape. I work with clients on a range of concerns including, but not limited to, relationships difficulties, depression, anxiety, panic, aftermath of abuse or neglect in family of origin, and transitions/loss across lifespan. I am currently accepting clients in New York.

I am a firm believer that not all therapeutic approaches fit all. CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing have shown to be beneficial throughout my experience as a therapist. With this increased insight, clients can challenge these maladaptive thoughts which can lead to improvements in behaviors and positive outcomes in their lives.

We provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment services for a wide array of psychological issues to help you and your family reach your fullest potential. ​ Our mission is to work collaboratively with our patients and their families to provide them the tools necessary to succeed in life. ​

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and an expert in the social-emotional aspects of child development with over 15 years of invaluable clinical experience. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, couples and families providing counseling for a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, parenting, and trauma issues. In my clinical work, I focus on the development of coping skills, emotional regulation skills, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral strategies. I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among my clients, and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations.

Together, we create personal goals to work toward in order to relieve stress and enhance overall emotional well being.

Feeling stuck or unfulfilled in different areas of your life? Would you like support that is professional and confidential? Unlike talking to friends and family, therapy offers a safe space where you can put words to things that are difficult to say, and confront things from your past that seem to interfere with your life in the present. Therapy can lead to deeper self-awareness and insight that can empower you to make the changes you need to live your best life. Everyone has the power to grow and heal with the right conditions and tools. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 yrs of experience. I've worked in various settings with people from diverse backgrounds, but college student mental health has been my passion. I've worked in the counseling centers at John Jay, UT Health Science Center, Princeton, and Cornell to name a few. I've also been a certified academic success coach.

Substances have a way of putting us on a merry-go-round that will not stop. Substances help us regulate our mood, push out the uncomfortable, keep us walled off from our surroundings. Something happens in life, and we "want to stop", but do not know how to stop. And, we use again. If you are struggling with substances, unhappy with your life, tired of chasing the next high, ask for help. You can text or call me. Maybe it is time for you to rethink your relationship to substances.

There are things that you have to deal with that are too difficult to take on by yourself. Unfortunately, it is not always clear which direction to take- you need someone to bounce ideas off of, someone who is objective and has the experience to help you find your way. I believe that you have the tools you need to make the changes that you need to make. My role as therapist is to help you find those tools within yourself and to learn trust yourself enough to use them. I have worked with clients who are dealing with adjustment, life-stage transitions, identity issues and family problems. Many of my clients seek therapy for relationship issues and when struggling with grief, depression or anxiety.

I specialize in working with college-aged students. I understand the unique pressures you face, from academic stress and relationships to social anxieties and figuring out your future path.

I offer a warm, relational approach, creating a safe space where you can be heard and supported. Think of me as your partner in accountability – a listening ear when you need to vent, and a gentle nudge when you're ready to push yourself further. The goal is empowerment. I'll help you develop the skills and confidence to tackle challenges on your own, building the strength to become your best self.
