Therapists for college students near New York University
Clients I meet tend to experience a lot of emotional and psychological mistreatment in their childhood, and how that impacts their adulthood. I spend a lot of time with people helping them figure out their boundaries with others, and how to deal with conflict in different relationships. I’ve worked with people on the ideas of perfectionism recently, and how it can create a negative space internally when one’s standards are not met often.
Are you feeling stuck, disconnected, or not like yourself? Whether you are dealing with academic stressors, social stressors, depression or anxiety you are not alone and my goal is to create a safe and healing space for you. I am here to help you feel empowered and build resiliency. My style is person centered and strengths based, meaning that each person possesses strengths and can build new skills that we will fine tune and use to work towards your goals.

I specialize in helping people cope with the emotional ups and downs of life transitions, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship endings, and academic and career stress. I can help you find your way back to feeling whole again and learn to treat yourself with self-compassion. I have an extensive background in providing counseling for undergraduate and graduate students, including medical students and residents. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for people to be heard and seen and find hope for the future.

I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and relational therapy.
I have extensive experience working with individuals navigating addiction and recovery, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and stress. I also incorporate DBT-informed coping skills—particularly mindfulness—which I’ve found to be powerful tools in both clinical work and everyday life. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you. I typically structure sessions around one or two main areas to help keep our work focused and meaningful. Treatment planning is a collaborative process, and I strive to make sure it aligns with your unique needs and goals. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and taking that first step is a brave decision. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and empowered. I believe in a patient-centered approach—working collaboratively to understand your goals, meet you where you are, and support you at your pace. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, I’d be honored to support you. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
I am an experienced licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. My goal and my passion is to work with my clients on whatever concerns they may have and to help them, with compassion and competence, make their lives more satisfying and fulfilling. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, families and groups going through life changes which may result in stress or anxiety including marriage/divorce/remarriage, relationship issues, parenting, personal development, aging and illness. I facilitate a THERAPEUTIC SUPPORT GROUP for divorced & divorcing women. The group provides therapeutic support as well as psychoeducation in a supportive and caring small group setting. The goal is to support and empower the women in the group and help them to optimally utilize their sometimes limited resources. In addition to my degree in marriage & family therapy I also have a law degree and have trained in mediation and collaborative law enabling me to help group members from a multitude of perspectives.
I believe that what brings many people to therapy is a sense of disconnection (from themselves, others, or the world around them). Alongside disconnection, clients may experience depression, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, job/career concerns, loneliness, anger, body pains, among other symptoms. I’m passionate about working with clients to help them identify, understand, and reconnect with the parts of themselves and their experiences that they disconnected from throughout the years. It is through this work that clients are able to show up more authentically and experience greater meaning and fulfillment in their lives. I work primarily from relational and attachment based frameworks while incorporating complementary modalities, prioritizing client needs/goals. My specialty is working with individuals with relationship concerns, identity exploration, and life transitions. Additionally, I have expertise working with college/graduate students and emerging adults. I wholeheartedly believe that much of the healing and growth process occurs within the context of relationships (whether that be in the relationships with others or with yourself). Therefore, I emphasize the importance of finding a good fit with a therapist and encourage reaching out if you feel we may be a good fit. I look forward to connecting!
Hello! Is your relationship with yourself or important people around you diminished by problematic thoughts, feelings or behaviors?

I have been effective working with a wide range of ages and backgrounds on issues such as depression, anger, anxiety, relationships, transitions, stress, impulsivity and many others. What are the unique life circumstances you've faced? Are there important parts of you that have not been sufficiently seen, heard or respected?

Please feel free to contact me so that we can explore the possibility or our working together. Thank you!
I intend to help clients address their attachment and developmental trauma, often at the root of anxiety, depression, and other challenges, using NARM (NeuroAffective Relational Model). Its heartfelt approach utilizes the shared human experience to support the client’s development and growth. . Within the modality’s framework, I create a collaborative environment where clients can reconnect to their heart’s desire as we address internal obstacles. In our exploration, the client finds healthier ways of relating to their self and environment.
Many of us feel disconnected, carry burdens from past traumas, and struggle to balance caring for ourselves with having a fulfilling life. My approach will help you respond to intense emotions and memories with more curiosity and speak to the parts of you that feel self-critical, alienated, and alone with a more compassionate and nurturing voice. We will explore your unmet needs and help you express yourself with more vulnerability, confidence, and authenticity. My focus is offering Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to the LGBT/queer community and ADHD/neurodivergent folks. My special interests are spirituality, social anxiety, non-monogamy, co-dependence, intergenerational trauma, college life, and plant medicine/psychedelic integration. I am Level 2 trained in IFS therapy through the IFS Institute, and can also be found in their practitioner directory. I also offer ADHD evaluations - you can find an inquiry form on my website.
Life is a journey and you will be hard pressed to find a completely smooth path along the way. The hard truth is that life can be filled with difficulties. However, everyone possesses inner strengths to overcome their barriers. I will assist you in bringing out these strengths and adopt healthy coping mechanisms. I have a background in established therapeutic styles such as solution-focused, goal-oriented, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and mindfulness. Such traditional approaches may work for some but sometimes dismisses the holistic needs of individuals. I am a strong believer in the power of connection, humor, and purpose. To meet the needs and busy schedules of people, I also offer an internet-based platform. Availability for individuals, groups, couples, and families. I respect all forms of therapy, but if you envision beyond counseling that follows the standard constraints then this is the right fit for you. Please visit the website EBCounseling.org
Art therapy is for the individual who has difficulty verbalizing what they are going through. Creating art helps the person work through the trauma, anxiety, depression etc. One does NOT need to have any art experience knowledge or talent! Only an open mind to exploring their feelings and emotions through a creative lens!
Life is full of ups & downs, and it’s completely natural to find yourself questioning why things don’t feel as fulfilling or joyful as you think they should. Maybe you're wondering, “Why isn’t my life bringing me the happiness I expected?” or “Why is my relationship with (partner/friend/family member) so hard?” You might feel stuck - unsure of how to make things better as you navigate anxiety, depression, and other challenges. These feelings are more common than you might think, and you don’t have to face them on your own. My style is affirming, supportive, and insight-driven, with real-world skills to manage daily challenges. I specialize in working with young adults & college students. Together, we’ll explore practical tools to break through obstacles, rediscover hope, and empower you to create lasting change - no matter where you’re starting from.

I hold an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Working with adolescent aged clients and older, I am passionate about providing an inclusive space to work with BIPOC communities with the goal of aligning multicultural approaches amidst various cultures and religions. I emphasize a core value of ensuring a safe environment of dignity and respect for each individual while exploring identities among systemic issues. In sessions, I offer compassionate and empathetic support that allows for inner healing and growth for clients. I attentively listen and collaborate side by side with clients to address emotional disturbances, school issues, life transitions, life stressors, divorce, grief, caregiving support, suicidal ideations, esteem support and coping skills. My therapeutic style is based on a DBT lens, and incorporates the perspectives of CBT, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and creative art mediums. I also have additional science-focused education and training that emphasizes biological knowledge with the working elements of therapy. I strive to combine the psychological and social components of counseling with scientific connections to ensure a deeper understanding of presenting situations. Through collaborative approaches, Farrah is dedicated to work together with clients in exploring restorative growth and remedy.
