Therapists for college students near 02139

If you’ve spent years feeling different, overwhelmed, exhausted from masking, or wondering why life feels harder than it seems for others, you’re not alone. I specialize in adult ADHD and autism evaluations for neurodivergent adults (ADHD, Autism, AuDHD), especially those identified later in life. My affirming, collaborative evaluation process helps you better understand lifelong patterns related to executive functioning, sensory experiences, emotional regulation, burnout, and relationships. I also provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy for adults seeking support, clarity, and self-understanding. Visit ashiftinfocus for more. We don’t need fixing- even if it feels like that. Therapy is a space to explore both the struggles and the beauty of being neurodivergent, with self-compassion, nervous system support, and real-world strategies. I also offer separate adult ADHD and autism evaluation services for those seeking diagnostic clarity. If life feels harder than it should, you’re not alone & you’re not broken. Many ND adults seek support after years of pushing through, masking and wondering why nothing ever quite fits. Support can help you understand yourself differently and move forward with less shame and more ease.

**Weekday, Evening and Weekend Appointments Available** **Now seeing clients in Massachusetts and New Mexico** Are you caught up in a seemingly endless cycle of addiction to alcohol or drugs? Well, I have good news and bad news for you. Let’s start with the bad news: it takes significant effort to stop addictive behaviors, and to address the underlying emotional or trauma issues that compel you to relapse over and over again. There’s no magic wand, no Abracadabra. Now the good news: The cycle doesn’t have to be endless. Recovery is possible! I have 25 years experience working in the addictions and mental health treatment field--in settings ranging from group homes to treatment centers. I authored a workbook on Mindfulness-Based Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy. I also specialize in teaching coping skills for trauma and emotions that tend to drive us back to our addictive behaviors. My approach is eclectic, client-centered, empathic, and goal-directed. I can help you chart a path to sobriety and wellness, and to begin to address the underlying reasons behind self-defeating behaviors or troubling emotions in the here and now. I offer virtual appointments.

We live in chaotic times. Everyone is affected at one level or another. Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, uncertain, stuck, lost and alone? You may be struggling with depression, relationship problems, self esteem, loss and life changes. Perhaps feeling like you don’t belong, or searching for deeper purpose and meaning, and/or yearning for that spiritual connection, wisdom and inner guidance to show you the way to inner peace and happiness – the way back home. I can help. As a Psychospiritual therapist, coach, mentor and healer, I have been in practice for over 35 years.

Hello, I am a licensed Independent clinical social worker, trained in narrative therapy, and I take a collaborative nonjudgmental approach to therapy. I have worked in a range of different settings including both inpatient and outpatient hospital settings, community mental health, and a college counseling center. I believe that individuals should be defined by their interests, hopes, dreams, and values, not by the problems they struggle with. If you're interested in seeing if we might be a good match feel free to reach out. Currently, I have only online availability in the early mornings before 8:30am or evenings on weekdays.

These seasons of life can be filled with uncertainty and emotional challenges, and having a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process those experiences can make a meaningful difference. My goal is to offer that space to every client I work with. As a Registered Art Therapist with 15 years of experience, I integrate therapeutic art-making into sessions to support self-expression, healing, and growth. My approach is client-centered, strength-based, and collaborative. I tailor counseling to each individual's needs, combining expressive arts with other effective therapeutic techniques to help clients build coping skills, resilience, and a personal toolkit they can draw from in everyday life. Whether this is your first time seeking support or returning to therapy, I strive to create a welcoming, safe environment where you feel heard and supported. I’m currently offering daytime appointments in Raynham and also have telehealth availability. Thank you for visiting my profile—if it sounds like we may be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you.

My strength as a psychologist is to deeply attend to each client's emotions, thoughts, and life context. If you seek to participate in therapy with me, we will work together to create a judgment-free and safe space. In my practice of therapy, I effectively balance exploratory and supportive therapy with the latest research and evidence-based interventions. I provide psychotherapy for older adolescents (16+), adults, older adults, college students, professionals, military-affiliated individuals, couples, and families. My advanced training includes a postdoctoral fellowship at McLean Hospital, with a clinical appointment at Harvard Medical School, and an APA-accredited internship at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Alongside my private practice, my professional experience includes teaching clinical psychology at the undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral levels. I am happy to answer any questions you may have or set up an initial phone conversation to determine if we both think we might work well together to meet your goals. I currently have weekday daytime and limited evening availability. I also offer both in-person and telehealth (virtual) therapy. I look forward to hearing from you!

I have been a mental health counselor for 20 years. I enjoy the process of helping others help themselves. I trust together we can improve your overall life experience. One of the most important things to be looked at is how you interpret experiences and understanding the influence on your moods. Using a journal is a tool to improve your outcomes in therapy. I look forward to meeting you either online or in-person at my home office.

Serving residents of CT and MA, with virtual appointments. Feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Is this new stage of life scary and you're not sure how you're going to get through it? Is your worrying getting in the way of enjoying your life? Are you not finding your way now that you've started college/a new job/a new role in your family/moved back home/etc.?...I can help you move forward and make these things feel more manageable. I’m Stephanie Ervin, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Shifting Tides Therapeutic Services PLLC. I believe life is ever-changing, like the ocean’s tides, bringing unique challenges at every stage. I’m here to help you navigate these shifts, overcome challenges, and create the fulfilling life you want. I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity and respect, offering support while challenging you to grow. While we might be talking about pretty heavy topics at times, I also believe therapy should not be so "stuffy" or intimidating. It should be a space you enjoy coming to! Using evidence-based techniques, I tailor therapy to your needs. My dog, Pearl, in training for animal-assisted therapy, can join future in-person sessions and sometimes says hi on screen! Together, we’ll explore your goals, reduce stress, and find clarity. I offer a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit for each other. If any of this resonates with you, reach out with a text, call or email. You deserve to feel better and enjoy the stage of life you are in!

What could you navigate in a safe space? I will use a warm, compassionate approach as we explore what you might be seeking. Perhaps you long for fulfillment or a clarified sense of purpose. Maybe you feel stuck in patterns that don't serve you. Perhaps you are sad or anxious, grappling with a relationship, or coping with a loss. I believe sorting out your thoughts and feelings together can yield a more enjoyable life. My background is concentrated in medicine and mental health, with a particular attention to the mind-body connection. I tend to work with a lot of college students and enjoy assisting clients with life transitions and identity exploration. My specialties include LGBTQ, gender, life transitions, disabilities, and career options. I earned a BA in psychology and an MSW in social work from Tulane University. I am licensed in Louisiana, MA, and New York. I look forward to hearing from you and beginning our work together.

Life is a multifaceted journey. Sometimes we need help along the way. That's where I come in! *providing telehealth services* You are valid. Your feelings are valid. You are not crazy. You most certainly are not broken. I offer you all a place to feel safe, heard, and validated. I am not the authority on your life but am an outside perspective. I want to treat you like a person, not a number on a page. I value open and honest communication. I will not suggest a course of treatment that I have not researched or tried on myself. I value the use of self-disclosure if it will in turn benefit your healing process. I have spent time engaging in intensive family treatment in homes and individual work through my private practice. I am open and honest and provide individualistic treatment to everyone who decides to work with me. I want to be a tool that is used to provide some help.

I am a licensed psychotherapist utilizing holistic, creative modalities to provide healing that is effective for children, adolescents and adults. I utilize two main modalities in my practice: Expressive Arts Therapy and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Through these modalities, I empower people who are having difficulty with depression and anxiety due to transitions, low self-esteem, stress, chronic pain, relationship issues, work/school obligations, trauma and grief. Expressive Arts Therapy is an effective way to process difficult emotions by making meaning through the exploration of our creative works. EFT is part of a holistic mind-body movement that works by finding the negative charges in our bodies while simultaneously sending calming signals to decrease our physical and emotional responses. My clients describe me as relatable, comforting, and validating. With compassion and acceptance, I welcome you to join me just as you are.

Are you in college, a young adult, or navigating a major life transition and feeling like everyone else got a manual for this stage of life, that you somehow missed? Maybe you're questioning who you are, what you want, or where you’re headed. You might feel stuck between family expectations and who you're becoming, or you're feeling pressure to "figure it all out", as you balance school, work, and relationships. I specialize in working with young adults navigating identity development, exploring sexuality and gender, relationship challenges and life transitions. You don’t have to have everything clearly defined before starting therapy. You might just know that something feels off, that you’re stressed, disconnected, unsure, or not living fully as yourself. Therapy can be a space to slow down, untangle competing expectations, and build clarity and confidence. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, not judged. Together, we’ll build on your existing strengths and develop concrete tools and greater insight to help you grow into a more confident, self-trusting version of yourself. If you’re ready for support, I’d be honored to connect.

If you've been feeling stuck in cycles of self-doubt; feeling overwhelmed or unsure what to do next; comparing yourself to others and wondering why it seems easier for them? You're in the right place. My name is Kate, I specialize in helping young adults live authentically with confidence, self-trust, and steadiness in their life. Therapy with me is collaborative and practical, so that you are leaving session with something tangible. Whether that’s a new perspective, a tool you can use right away, or a clearer understanding of yourself. I offer virtual therapy across Massachusetts, providing flexibility for scheduling and the comfort of being in your own space. Reach out for a free consultation to learn more about how I can support you. Self-scheduling is also available through my website.

My job as your therapist is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental, goal-oriented environment for you to highlight and cultivate your best self. Or, in the words of Dolly Parton: "Find out who you are, and do it on purpose." I value humor, humility, and building on your existing strengths to help achieve your goals. My work is informed by a strong belief that our wellbeing is impacted by the environments within which we exist, and I work to help improve the communities and systems that we all inhabit. I specialize in helping clients address anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity development. My approach is casual and client-centered. My theoretical orientation is eclectic, meaning I draw on a broad range of clinical interventions and theories to best suit your specific needs. It's important to find a therapist who feels like a good fit. I invite you to reach out so we can touch base by phone and discuss any questions you might have about the therapy process.

My approach is caring & direct. I focus on the whole person, and work to help strengthen and balance the mentally, emotionally, physically, and behaviorally.

Immediate openings available! Humans are not meant to work through life's challenges alone. My approach to therapy is collaborative and relational, meaning we will work together to develop and work towards your goals and hopefully laugh along the way.

Welcome! Thanks for visiting my profile.

My goal is to create a safe, warm, relational space where you can explore your experiences, identity, goals, and spark your inherent capacity for healing and growth.

I have an eclectic approach and draw on various evidence-based modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, EMDR, and narrative therapy. I believe seeking support and asking for help are strengths. Our first session is a chance to get to know each other and begin building trust. We’ll talk about what brought you in, what you hope to get out of therapy, and any questions or concerns you might have about the process.
