Therapists for college students near New York, NY

I am passionate about providing a warm and supportive space for us to work together to help you feel better quickly. I work with young adults struggling with depression and anxiety. Through the TEAM-CBT approach I will first listen to your story and then develop a plan for recovery. I will teach you specific strategies that you can utilize to work through your struggle. We will track your progress at each session and make meaningful progress towards your goals. You will learn tools to challenge your negative self-talk and can experience relief in just a few weeks.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Clinician I have had the privilege of helping my clients find hope and healing for over eleven years. My experience has given me the opportunity to assist clients of all backgrounds in managing their struggles with stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, addiction issues and more. I use research-backed, evidence-based therapy techniques, empathy, humor and warmth to elicit true healing and growth. I commend you for taking these first steps toward positive change and I look forward to being a part of your therapeutic journey!

Most of my 25 plus years of practice have been spent working with adolescents and young adults. I have done so within classrooms as a teacher as well as in my office in private practice. I am specifically aware of the increasing demands placed upon young people to excel whether those demands are internal, external or both. My clients will tell you that they never have to wonder what I am thinking as I am fairly direct in my approach. My experience has been that, tempered with a good sense of humor and genuine concern, this style allows for lasting change. In this time of telehealth, I have night and weekend video appointments available as well.

Welcome! If you're here, reading this, I want to tell you how great it is that you're looking for support. It's a scary process and one with many twists and turns. I work with people, just like you, who are trying to figure things out, get their footing and understand what their options are. Although we'd all love one, there is no playbook for how to make tough decisions, navigate all the big feelings and situations that come up while you're also trying to do well in school and, frankly, attempt to enjoy the experience of being at college. But it can be tough to make all the pieces work for you. That's what we do together - we figure out what's working for you, what's not going so well and what you'd like to do to make changes. Therapy can sound a bit overwhelming - it's really just a long running conversation. Perhaps you're an old hat at therapy but you've needed to find someone new - that's challenging in its own way. Whatever you're looking for, it's good that you've started. If you're ready, curious or just want to know more, please don't hesitate to reach out for a consult call where we'd get to know each other a bit, see if we'd be a good fit and go from there! And it's free! If I'm not for you - and I'm not, that's the way this works - that's OK and together we can figure out what might be a bit better fitting. I hope to hear from you and in the meantime, wish you the best.

My practice is built on compassion, warmth and a deep respect for each person’s unique story. My areas of specialty include eating disorders (Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder) and disordered eating, body image struggles, anxiety, ADHD and life transitions. My practice is LBTGQ+ and Health At Every Size informed.

Whether you're worrying often, struggling with relationship stress and conflict, needing to process traumatic events, or wanting to experience a more loving sense of self, beginning therapy can be anxiety-provoking and takes courage. I hope to make your experience a little easier by listening with compassion and curiosity, moving at your pace, and centering the therapy around your needs. Do others describe you as overachieving, self-reliant, perfectionistic, or Type-A? Do you struggle with creating enough balance in your life? Do you lose track of your needs & desires, and then find yourself feeling burnt out or resentful of others? We will work together to help you feel more grounded and centered, develop effective communication skills, set & maintain boundaries that feel good, experience greater compassion towards yourself, and feel more connected to others. We can work through whatever barriers are getting in the way of creating more play, softness, love, rest & support in your life. I am trained in psychodynamic therapy & mindfulness-based somatic therapy, two powerful ways of working that promote greater awareness, connection, and sense of freedom. I welcome you to reach out for a phone consult & we can feel into if we're a good fit to work together.

Hi, I'm Dr. Spesh, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with specialized experience in culturally informed treatment of anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and other stress-related disorders. I enjoy working with culturally diverse individuals with a broad range of psychological problems, life, & relationship issues. My clinical and research background has specifically focused on women’s mental health, trauma (including military combat and sexual trauma), and individuals experiencing marginalization and minority stress (e.g. Black women/men, Ethnic/Racial minorities/People of Color, LGBTQ+ identified individuals). I am a Yale-trained clinician with over a decade of experience in providing psychotherapy. At my practice, D.I.V.E.

As an LGBTQ ally with a specialized background in LGBTQ health, I also offer evaluations and letters for gender-affirming hormone therapy and surgery. As an experienced therapist I recognize that people seek therapy for a range of clinical and/or life issues, but the common goal is reducing and addressing barriers that get in the way of living a fulfilling life. If what you have read is consistent with your needs, contact me for free 15 minute consultation to see if D.I.V.E. is a good fit for you.

Hi, I have been in private practice for the past seven years. Before that I worked in junior-senior high schools, mainly in Rochester, NY. I have worked with many clients with anxiety and depression and have helped many teens stop self-harming behaviors. I have also worked with several college students on dealing with the stressors in their lives as well as trouble with procrastination and organization. I feel that I am relaxed, laid back, and a good listener.

I am a clinical psychologist and provide evidence-based treatment for problems including anxiety (and related disorders, such as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and trichotillomania), depression and many other conditions, such as trauma and grief, substance abuse, adjustment difficulties or problems in interpersonal relationships. While I work with adults of all ages, I specialize in working with young adults (ages 18-28) and have worked in several college counseling centers, including Princeton University, where I completed my post-doctoral residency. Taking a holistic approach, I make sure that we focus not only on the symptoms but on your overall wellbeing. I create a safe and warm environment, where we work as a team to help you live a meaningful life. I offer a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation to help answer any questions that you may have prior to start of treatment.

Counseling is a journey to improve your overall health and well being. Counseling addresses the challenges that you may be facing in your daily life. I look forward to helping you along this journey as we work together. I want to support you and empower you to be your best self. I am a strength based and trauma informed counselor. I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and have extensive experience working with individuals that have experienced trauma.

My goal is to help my patients find relief, whether it is falling asleep with ease, completing tasks confidently, being present and interacting with loved ones, or even coping with a difficult social settings. I received my doctorate degree as a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Columba University in 2020. While board certified to treat a diverse scale of symptoms, I have over 4 years of experience with children, as well as adults with substance use disorders. My main focus is medication management. However, I believe it is important to meet someone where they are at and provide psycho-education about various options for treatment, rather than dictating one path. Choosing a medication is a collaborative and fluid discussion where there may be more than one right answer. I believe in taking the time not only to complete comprehensive assessment of symptoms, but also explore the root of the symptoms. I strive to create the most thoughtful plan for each individual, with the patient as an active participant in their own treatment.

I have over fifteen years of clinical experience in mental health and I am dedicated to helping individuals transform their lives through a cognitive behavioral structure, and to both pursue and achieve their personal and therapeutic goals.

My approach is warm and friendly, and my communication style is direct but with compassion. I also think humor can be very healing. I strive to guide client’s toward solutions and to help them meet their goals. My priority with clients is to create a safe space by helping them feel heard and understood without judgment. If you're anxious, depressed or overwhelmed and living with painful emotions, therapy can help. Let me help you move to a place of understanding so you feel empowered to make new and different choices to improve your life and your relationships.

Are you struggling with mood disorders, anxiety issues, OCD, or eating disorders? I provide mental health care for adults with a multimodal approach, ensuring relevant and informed patient care personalized to your specific lifestyle, wants, and needs. You are a unique individual with your own neurobiochemical makeup, which is why we work together to create a holistic treatment plan that you feel is realistic and sustainable. My specialty is in taking in a functional approach to psychiatry, with goals to discover the root cause of symptoms, provide options for treatment, and offer education for an informed therapeutic journey. I look forward to exploring the best options for you in our work together. Working together, you can expect a collaborative, therapeutic relationship, nonjudgmental environment, and creative solutions. I believe in taking a holistic approach while practicing with current evidence-based treatments, incorporating medications, psychotherapy, lifestyle counseling, and functional/nutritional psychiatry. My style of psychotherapy is integrative, combining Mindfulness, psychodynamic, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy concepts/practices. Before becoming a Psych NP, I practiced as an RN in numerous medical specialties and discovered a passion for psychiatry over time. I saw how mental health was not equally prioritized to physical health, and believe it is all connected. This experience allows me to bring a well-rounded medical background to patient care while addressing psychiatric needs, contributing to holistic treatment.
