Therapists for college students near New York University

Hello! My name is Jen and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have been in the field for 11 years now. I have experience working with teenagers in a high school setting, as well as young adults in an inpatient psychiatric center. I am passionate about helping people find their strengths, remember their worth, and progress toward their wellness goals. In my practice, I use modalities that are designed to empower you through skill-based therapy. Together, we will process how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. This will allow us to find a path to get you feeling more like yourself again. I look forward to connecting with you!

Whether you're adjusting to campus life, managing academic stress, coping with anxiety, OCD, depression, or processing past trauma, we're here to help. Our compassionate therapists provide a safe and supportive space to explore your concerns, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies. From relationship challenges to mental health struggles, we’re committed to helping you thrive—both in college and beyond. Reach out today to start your journey toward balance and well-being.

You are the expert of your own experience and know best what supports you and what may no longer be serving you. In our work together, I will seek to highlight and validate how the social environment and systems have impacted your relationship with yourself and others, and to use the therapy space as an opportunity to dismantle hierarchies. To do this, I use an integrated, person-centered psychodynamic approach grounded in compassion. This includes using concepts from Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatics, mindfulness and analysis. I identify as queer and will bring a queer lens to our work together by asking how you have constructed meaning of your world, by recognizing your strengths and by supporting you in developing new insight. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work, an artist and an educator. I have experience working with people in creative fields, navigating their gender and sexual identities, anxiety, depression, life and career transitions and higher education.

Hello! I am a Licensed Therapist in New York. I enjoy working with individuals of all ages who are truly interested in making positive changes that will bring them closer to their own personal goals.

Hey there! My name is Bri and I offer emotion and behavior based counseling that moves you towards feeling less overwhelmed by your feelings and effectively expressing yourself. If you're feeling out of touch with yourself and those around you, having a tough time finding enjoyment in your day to day life, or struggling with a loop of negative thoughts and self-criticism, I can help you address all of these concerns. My role is to be here for you through all the ups, downs, triumphs, and challenges! Mental health is especially important and challenged during our present time and day to day struggles and I'm here to help.

I believe people have the inherent capacity to heal and grow. To support this change, I provide a nonjudgmental, warm, and collaborative therapeutic space. I will work with you to tap into your strengths, gain insight into behaviors that might currently feel stuck or confusing, and learn skills to empower you to effectively deal with stress and emotional ups and downs. My approach is tailored to your specific goals and circumstances, and typically includes a mixture of traditional “talk” therapy with mindfulness, somatic, and trauma-informed practices. I am committed to an anti-oppressive, inclusive approach that welcomes all experiences. I am licensed to provide telehealth in NY, GA, and FL. I also provide in-person sessions in GA.

I enjoy helping clients feel empowered and more satisfied both individually and in relationships. I tailor my approach to your specific needs and unique circumstances. Emotional pain can make you dread going to sleep, waking up, eating and even interacting with loved ones. It can disconnect you from your joy. If you’ve had a life event that shakes you to the core can feel incredibly isolating. But major losses in life also open doors to big transformations.

I work with people who long to feel more at home with themselves and in their lives. My clients are curious, self-reflective and have experienced things that leave them feeling hurt, fearful and alone. During sessions we may encounter powerful gates of self-discovery like grief, anger, and shame. Together we get to know these parts of you, approach them with kindness, release painful stories and make meaning. Clients leave sessions feeling closer to themselves, able to move through their lives with clarity and presence. My approach weaves multiple therapeutic approaches within and beyond traditional psychotherapy. I’m trained in IFS and EMDR, and incorporate mindfulness and somatic practices into sessions. I offer reiki, a form of energy healing, to support regulation and rest. I'm also a student of tarot and astrology, and can include these perspectives in the work. I welcome all parts of you to this work. To learn more about me and to see if we are a good match for doing this work together, email me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation call.

I earned my PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) degree at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and I have worked in different settings including university/community counseling centers, dual diagnosis treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitals (Austen Riggs Center). I work from a psychoanalytic orientation. This approach emphasizes the importance of both past and present experiences, relationships, emotions, patterns of being, and the unconscious. While it is natural to want to move away from suffering, it is when we give it a voice that healing can begin. Though genetics can play a role in the development of psychiatric problems; symptoms are some of the ways our psyche and body deal with pain that has not been understood, contextualized, and articulated. My goal as a psychoanalytic therapist is to help my patients notice how their symptoms are not accidental experiences to dodge, but rather meaningful communications to explore. Only through this inquiry can patients tap into interpersonal and intrapersonal as well as conscious and unconscious phenomena that have shaped their life and continue to contribute to their suffering.

As a Master's level Mental Health Counseling graduate, I understand the stress of having to balance the demands of school, and the day-to-day demands of work or family. I strive to make a safe space for everyone to come in and express themselves without judgement or fear. Using Person-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, and CBT, I want to help you see your full potential, and work through your struggles with anxiety, depression or trauma. I look forward to meeting you and being your first step in your journey!
