Therapists for college students near New York University

Adjusting to college can be a difficult transition. It can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. And I'm here to partner with you to make that transition easier. If you are looking for relief from stress, sadness, anxiety, relationship difficulties, uncertainty about your next step, needing help with developing coping skills, or wanting to better understand yourself, I'm here to help guide you towards those goals. You do not have to go through it alone. I look forward to working with you!

I am a dedicated and compassionate therapist with over fifteen years of experience helping individuals and families overcome challenges and achieve their personal goals. My mission is to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing the skills they need to thrive. If you are having difficulty coping with life events, relationship problems, persistent negative thoughts, depression or anxiety, I believe I can help you.

Traditional therapy can often feel like endless conversations with relatively limited results. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, unwanted habits and addictions and you’re ready to make change using concrete techniques, I can help. My clients learn to change their thoughts and feelings with steadfast results. I use the TEAM-CBT approach to therapy that is both efficient and effective in creating lasting change. We will identify your unique needs, develop an effective treatment plan, and utilize powerful techniques that last a lifetime. My clients find that the process itself gives them the confidence to carry out the plan because it is clear and makes sense. Your commitment to the process, like homework in-between sessions, also makes this treatment effective. Throughout it, we’ll monitor your progress to ensure you’re on the right track to healing and wellness. My confidence in this process is grounded in 20 years of experience, my CBT certification through the Academy of Cognitive Therapy and my training and affiliation with the Feeling Good Institute. I am committed to working with diverse clients using a culturally responsive approach because the trust that comes with this understanding and empathy, are also vital to the way we work together. Many of my clients reach their goals within 8 to 12 hour long weekly sessions. An intensive format (longer sessions over a shorter period of time) is also an option if that works better for you. If you're interested in a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we're a good fit, I'd love to connect with you.

Are you have having trouble transitioning through life’s many changes? Have you felt increasingly anxious, stressed, and irritable? Do you doubt yourself? Do you find yourself having trouble connecting with family members, romantic partners, and/or friends? Are issues from your past keeping you from moving forward? Maybe you just don’t feel like yourself. All of these feelings are normal. Whether we have been struggling with these things our entire lives or just the past few weeks, all of us feel lost at times. If you’d like help coping with difficulties in your life or gaining a better understanding of yourself, your past, your culture, your experiences, and how it all affects the person that you are, we can work together. We can talk about patterns and behaviors that have been holding you back, find strengths and interests that will help you thrive, and set goals which will encourage you to move forward. Together we can help you feel more like you and take steps towards making positive changes.

Change is scary, but I'll meet you where you are & together we can move you towards the life you want.

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.

Since my first counseling experience at the University at Buffalo's Counseling Center, I have found working with college students especially rewarding. I have dedicated my career to understanding and treating emotional health.

It is so gratifying to see people become the best versions of themselves.
