Therapists for college students near 10003
I am a psychotherapist with several years of experience helping young people from diverse backgrounds develop the tools they need to move toward their personal and wellness goals. Whether you are navigating a major life transition, struggling with confidence, working through challenging family dynamics, experiencing relationship difficulties, or processing past experiences, my goal is to help you make sense of these challenges and reconnect with the inner strengths you already carry. Together we can build clarity, strengthen self-trust, and develop practical tools to help you move forward with confidence. My approach to therapy is collaborative, curious, holistic, and empowering. I draw from evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy, tailoring each session to your individual needs and goals. In our work together, we will explore your concerns within the broader context of your life experiences, relationships, and environment. From there, we will develop a thoughtful and realistic path toward the changes you want to make. If this resonates with you, I’d be happy to connect and begin this process together!
Are you experiencing a significant life transition, struggling with anxiety, or seeking to heal from generational or identity-based trauma? You deserve a safe and supportive environment where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered. I specialize in assisting clients from diverse backgrounds—including Latinx, African American, and LGBTQIA communities—in exploring their experiences and developing the skills to thrive. I'm Xioel Terrero, a bilingual (English/Spanish) licensed mental health counselor with degrees from Fordham University and Manhattan College. As an immigrant from the Dominican Republic, I understand the emotional challenges of adapting to a new culture while navigating issues of identity, exclusion, and resilience. These experiences have profoundly influenced my work and fueled my dedication to social justice and equitable care.
My practice serves children, adolescents, young adults struggling with educational issues, career development, the artistic community and general population. My offices are located in midtown Manhattan and Toms River South Jersey. I direct my patients to feel confidence in their autonomy and potential. They find me approachable, accepting and respectful of their privacy. All ages feel comfortable in sessions; share the follies and humor in life with me and eventually work towards acceptable solutions. I work on the need for personal development, independence, academic progress and career plans throughout the developmental spectrum. In addition, I lecture for professional schools and organizations on "Resilience in Children" and "Complexity of Child Therapy".

Life can be overwhelming at times and that can sometimes make our relationships complicated. Whether they are family or friends sometimes we can’t seem to connect without ending up stressed out or in an argument. These moments in life are common. If you resonate with any of this, then you're in the right place. I specialize in guiding adults (18+) through building self-esteem/self compassion, managing stress, building healthy relationships. Through therapy we will create a specialized plan to discover your automatic reactions to stress and negative events, why you respond in that way and how you can begin to respond in a way that better serves you. My focus is on being your guide to learning to implement compassion with yourself and your reactions while also allowing yourself space to grow. Take the first step in your therapeutic journey. I'm here to support you every step of the way. I encourage you to reach out, the best way to reach me is through email or phone.
