Therapists for college students near New York University

AREAS OF EXPERTISE: * LAW STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING * ANY STUDENT COPING WITH ILLNESS/BEREAVEMENT There is widespread recognition of significant mental health challenges affecting law students, especially depression, anxiety, and substance use. As an attorney and psychotherapist, I understand the unique stressors and pressures of law school and the legal profession. For many years, I managed the high demands of big law and a federal judicial clerkship. I spent more than a decade in higher education leading a law school mental health and wellness program, counseling law students and alumni with career and professional concerns, and teaching first- and third-year law courses. Through individually tailored therapy, I help clients cultivate healthy coping mechanisms to navigate the many demands of the legal field while prioritizing mental well-being. My successful approach integrating evidence-based therapeutic interventions with law-related concepts and experiences has been a game changer for clients. ​Additionally, as a former national research and healthcare leader, patient advocate and caregiver for 25+ years, I help individuals and their loved ones navigate the challenges and opportunities presented to those living with chronic, life altering or terminal illness. For those dealing with bereavement and grief, I help clients cope with the many facets of loss and move towards healing, acceptance, and finding a renewed sense of meaning in life.

Effective therapy creates meaningful, lasting, joyful change. As your therapist I can help you resolve the inner and outer conflicts that create pain and exhaustion. Life brings unchosen experiences. Sometimes we feel hurt, scared, or deeply alone. Sometimes what happens seems too big to manage. For 25+ years I have had the privilege of helping people learn to live as their "best self," able to manage their moods, thoughts and situations with compassion and skill, to make changes to reach their goals, and to find happiness. I lived and worked in Africa for 6 years, and have helped people from many cultures find their joy. My specialty is helping people understand their unique "recipe" of biology, upbringing, relationships, and current situations, and how they might work with their "ingredients" to create immediate and long-lasting positive change. My approach is practical. I integrate psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapies, internal and strategic family systems, EMDR and other trauma-informed approaches, and mindfulness-based stress management. Depression, anxiety, loneliness, frustration, pulls towards behaviors that lead to pain...whatever is interfering with your well-being is worth changing. Together we can produce change. Please EMAIL

Are you not feeling like yourself? Are you overwhelmed by things that shouldn't be all that overwhelming? It's often hardest to reach out for help when you're feeling this way.

My approach is comprehensive and integrated offering medications or therapy. If you're looking for a safe, non-judgmental space to address your needs, feel free to contact me.

I work to give my clients an open and safe space to talk about whatever it is that has you reaching out for help. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+, ADHD and trauma. One of the most important things is that we work together to figure out the best treatment for you. I want you to leave our sessions feeling heard and understood.

Many college students feel stressed, anxious, or unsure how to handle everything on their own. Between classes, friendships, family expectations, and figuring out what comes next, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or stuck. Therapy gives you a space to process what you’re experiencing, understand yourself more clearly, and build coping skills that actually work in your day-to-day life. I offer virtual sessions, which makes it easier to fit therapy into your schedule wherever you are. My style is warm, supportive, and practical, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Are your emotions getting the best of you — influencing behaviors that impact your relationships, career, or sense of self? Are worry thoughts or mood shifts becoming harder to manage? Building a life is difficult when strong emotions sweep you away. They can pull you from your values, your goals, and even your identity. Emotion regulation isn’t about getting rid of feelings — it’s about learning how to ride the wave without letting it carry you off course. I’m a DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician — the gold standard for DBT providers. I specialize in emotion dysregulation and use evidence-based treatments including cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. I offer adherent DBT individual therapy and DBT skills training in both a group and 1:1 format. Navigating the decision to pursue therapy, whether for yourself or a loved one, is a step in the right direction. If you’re ready, reach out to schedule a free initial 15-minute consultation. On our call, we’ll discuss goals and what our work together could look like.

I’m a licensed psychologist and have worked with college-age young adults for many years. I have a youthful energy and I believe in being a good and supportive listener. I utilize evidence-based cognitive-behavioral and acceptance and commitment therapy interventions to help young adults create and apply effective action plans in their life. I’m not interested in helping young adults merely admire their problems, is this usually results in remaining stuck. Instead, I work collaboratively to identify promising interventions to move our life forward towards desired goals. This, I find, is the only way for a person to build genuine confidence.

Are you struggling with relationships, trauma, or self-compassion? As humans, we want to connect and feel a sense of safety, security, and curiosity about ourselves and the world around us. Together we can work to overcome past hurt and present-day anxieties to build stronger connections and live more fully. As a relational therapist, my goal is to build a genuine, collaborative relationship with my clients where we work together to explore experiences, set meaningful goals, and experiment with new ways being. I use a blend of methodologies tailored to each client's needs, drawing from training in EMDR, IFS, Gottman, EFT, AEDP, and Somatic approaches. I enjoy drawing from a social justice and intersectional lens which pairs well with my interpersonal and conversational style. Let’s talk about where you are in your journey and how we can work together to achieve your goals.

I specialize in therapy for young and emerging adult women with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and OCD to help them find balance and gain new perspectives on how they see the world and themselves. I challenge Perfectionists, Overthinkers, and People Pleasers to step out of their black-and-white thinking. In our work together, we’ll explore the patterns that have protected you in the past, dive deeper into your experiences, and notice the stories that your mind is telling you. We’ll work with both your mind and body, helping you tune into how your thoughts, emotions, and physical responses are connected. As an integrative therapist, I blend evidence-based practices with a human, relational approach—drawing from different modalities to meet you where you are and what you need most. My goal is to provide a balanced, trauma-informed, and holistic approach that addresses the whole person—mind, body, and emotions. If you’re ready to understand yourself more deeply, build healthier boundaries, strengthen your self-trust, and create more space for flexibility and self-compassion, feel free to reach out or schedule a free consultation through my website—I’d be honored to support you!
