Therapists for college students near New York University

Has mental health impacted your ability to perform your best at school, work, or in daily life? Have emotional difficulties caused you to struggle with reaching goals or maintaining relationships?

I offer a non-judgmental and collaborative approach, while encouraging you, (and sometimes challenging you), towards becoming your best self. As a therapist in WNY with a specialty in career and education counseling, I will help you reach personal and professional goals while managing your mental health. I’ve assisted individuals with anxiety, depression, ADHD, schizophrenia and various other diagnoses, in working towards making their goals attainable. In addition to mental health counseling, services can include career counseling, academic support, college readiness, and guidance for individuals looking to plan their next steps in life. Growth in your career, at school, in your relationships, and in your personal life is possible despite your current circumstances. I look forward to supporting you in this next step!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist, providing support and guidance to LGBTQ+ folks who often don’t see themselves represented in the world around them or reflected in their search for the right-fit therapist. While I regularly help folks work through depression, anxiety, and trauma, we also freely discuss other topics that might not otherwise feel comfortable, including sex, faith, and the impact of diet culture. Nothing is off limits. I also regularly work with neurodivergent folks, especially around the emotional impact of ADHD, and exploring autistic identity.

I’m currently offering both in-person and telemedicine/virtual sessions for new and current clients. If you're looking for a caring, experienced, skilled and respectful therapist, you need look no further. I have years of experience in providing therapy in mental health settings and in private practice. I utilize therapeutic approaches proven to be effective (e.g.: DBT, MI, CBT, PST, Seeking Safety for trauma and substance abuse, etc.). I am known for my ability to connect with my clients in a caring, real, and honest way and I particularly enjoy working with college age students.

I am a Clinical Psychologist and a psychoanalyst, specializing in work with individuals suffering from mood disorders, addiction, trauma, and identity issues. I have a sensitivity for the dilemmas of young adults as they struggle to find "true self" expression integrated with the demands for compromise and conformity they face, both externally and internally. Please visit www.youngadults.com to learn more about my approach and practice.

I work with people navigating a season of change, whether through grief, identity exploration, burnout, or relationship transitions, and they are seeking a space where they don’t have to carry it all alone. They may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about the future, but they also have a deep desire to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. Many of the people I work with are highly introspective and care deeply about others, but struggle to extend that same compassion to themselves. They want to feel seen, validated, and supported as a whole person with layered experiences. I specialize in working with people moving through grief, life transitions, and identity-related challenges. I offer a queer-affirming and trauma-informed space where clients can show up as they are. My approach to therapy is relational, compassionate, and grounded in deep listening. If you're feeling the weight of grief, burnout, identity shifts, or emotional disconnection, you don't have to face it alone. Healing isn’t linear, and it doesn’t happen overnight, but it does happen when you feel safe, understood, and empowered. Therapy is a powerful act of selfcare and trust, and I'd be honored to be part of that journey with you.
