Therapists for college students near New York, NY

I am a person-centered Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) specializing in anxiety and depression. Working with young adults and adults, I help you navigate life's various challenges while meeting you where you’re at, which allows me to be a supportive and nonjudgmental partner in care. I look forward to supporting you as you work toward the goals you want to achieve together. In our time together, you can expect a warm, understanding, and attentive environment, where I use an integrative and tailored approach along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you overcome and navigate hardship. My approach is empathetic, culturally competent, and collaborative, as I’m passionate about helping you navigate life's challenges with support. My path to becoming a therapist began with the passing of my mother during my early adolescence, alongside having a negative experience in therapy of my own. This time of my life deepened my commitment to providing empathetic and compassionate care, and it's part of what allows me to bring a unique perspective to each session. In my free time, I love to travel and explore new places.

Kalen Psychotherapy * reimagining the couch * integrating multiple modalities * aspiring to liberatory practice * Together, we will grow further awareness of your self, your relationships, your work and your play in this ever-evolving world. Through the process of (re)discovery, you will develop insight into old, repetitive patterns, and find new ways of being. In order to ground ourselves for this work, where appropriate, I incorporate mindfulness and somatic practices. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, substance abuse, disordered eating, and more.

MANY OF US GO THROUGH LIFE as are our own harshest critics. We speak to ourselves in ways we wouldn't dare speak to a friend or loved one. Together, you and I can uncover the negative thoughts and beliefs you may hold and work to replace them with kinder, more empowering truths. You deserve to be your own biggest cheerleader, and I'll be right there behind you. OR, PERHAPS YOU'RE STRUGGLING to accept a difficult change or loss. I am here to say that you are not alone, and that hope for a positive, fulfilling future exists. While it may temporarily feel easier to avoid the grief that comes with such change and loss, I am here to sit with you in your toughest emotions. As we practice weathering the storm rather than fighting against it or running from it, we can help you adapt to your new reality, find meaning, and reconnect with your purpose and well-being. MY APPROACH IS COLLABORATIVE, client-centered, and strengths-based. I believe that a trusting therapeutic relationship serves as the foundation for all of the work that we will do together. Therefore, the process of building that trust and learning about your unique experiences, needs, and strengths is pivotal. As we personalize your therapy journey, it is my goal for your authentic self to feel affirmed and uplifted.

Healing and growth can be challenging, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re feeling the weight of past experiences or facing challenges in your relationship, we offer a warm, welcoming space where you can be honest about what you’re carrying and feel fully supported. We focus on what matters most—the moments that spark insight, the conversations that feel necessary but tough, and the steps that help you move forward. Together, we will process what has been difficult, nurture your connection with yourself, and deepen your bond with the people who matter most.

If you're struggling with anxiety and depression or find yourself feeling stuck, you may have come to the conclusion that you need some extra help. Therapy is the right place for breaking free and retaking control of your life. I utilize a warm, humanistic, competent style in addressing the obstacles that you face. I specialize in helping people suffering from anxiety, depression and PTSD. I am trained in multi-model psychoanalytic psychotherapy, and I aim to help you to utilize your knowledge of yourself to regain control over your life and to express yourself authentically. I'd like to help you get to the root of the problems you face. I encourage individuals to take a deeper, introspective dive, explore what might be going on beneath the surface and understand themselves in a new way. I’ll ask some thought provoking questions and offer you some insights to help you in this process. Complementing my focus on your individual experience is my in-depth extensive training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at the Training Institute for Mental Health and continued study of psychoanalysis. Reach out to me for a free phone consultation, and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Are you seeking support as you move through difficult emotions, life changes, or other challenges affecting your overall well-being? As a mental health counselor, I support children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, and periods of adjustment or transition. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward greater balance, confidence, and personal growth. I believe everyone deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported in their mental health journey, and I understand that beginning therapy can feel intimidating. Making the process feel comfortable and approachable matters to me, so know that you don’t have to navigate difficult moments alone. Together, we can create a space to explore your experiences and work toward your goals. I look forward to supporting you on that journey toward greater well-being. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and a humanistic, patient-centered approach to meet each person where they are, using these tools to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing effective coping strategies. This approach is compassionate, collaborative, and supportive, grounded in the belief that therapy should feel like a genuine human connection. Because therapy is most effective when patients feel comfortable being their authentic selves, I tailor my approach to your unique needs, experiences, and goals. I'm passionate about creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood while developing the tools and insight you need to navigate challenges and move toward meaningful growth. My path to becoming a therapist began with a genuine love for people and a deep curiosity about what helps us heal and grow. As someone from a LatinX background, I have witnessed and experienced the struggles and stigma that can surround mental health and understand how difficult it can be to take the first step toward seeking support. These experiences deepened my commitment to making therapy feel approachable, comfortable, and inclusive. I bring this same warmth, curiosity, and a genuine desire to understand each person's unique story to my work with patients. Pilates has become part of my weekly routine, and when I'm not on the mat, I'm usually curled up with a good book — I love murder mysteries, thrillers, romance, and the occasional fantasy novel. At home, I have an anxious dog I love to spoil, and I'm working on becoming more of a plant mom. I also enjoy baking.

Are you navigating life between two worlds, balancing family and cultural expectations with your own sense of self? Perhaps you're a child of immigrants, first-generation, or someone far from home asking deeper questions about who you are and where you belong. I'm a bilingual (English/Tagalog) psychotherapist specializing in depth-oriented, Jungian therapy. I work with Filipino Americans, Asian Americans, immigrants, and first-generation individuals doing the meaningful, sometimes difficult work of building an authentic identity, one that honors where they come from while making room for who they are becoming. My approach is exploratory and relational. Drawing from Jungian psychology, psychodynamic therapy, and somatic awareness, I work with the unconscious patterns, cultural conditioning, and intergenerational stories that shape your present life. This includes dream work, active imagination, and close attention to the body's wisdom alongside the mind's. If this resonates, I'd love to connect. I offer a free 15-minute consultation — reach out and let's talk. I also offer Walk & Talk therapy for clients in the Cupertino and Silicon Valley area - sessions conducted outdoors in nature for those who find that movement supports their process. Ask me about it when you reach out.

I am a licensed psychologist in New York, Florida and Connecticut and certified by PSYPACT to provide telehealth services to clients in states participating in PSYPACT. I provide treatment for adolescents and adults across the lifespan using cognitive behavior therapy. Treatment is time-limited, goal-directed and structured. My approach is collaborative, respectful, compassionate and logical. I introduce ways to actively cope when in distress, how to gain broader perspective, improve problem-solving skills, and develop the confidence to persevere when dealing with life's various challenges.

As a social worker with a clinical focus, my expertise includes facilitating group and individual sessions, case management and welfare systems with low-income populations, LGBTQ+ identities, depression and anxiety, suicidality and self-harm, and eating disorders/disordered eating populations. I work with people of all backgrounds, with a particular focus on queer and young patients. Together, we navigate interpersonal relationships (including the relationship you have with yourself), body image distress and gender dysphoria, internalized homophobia, trauma resolution, harm reduction, and finding alternatives to harm that lead to a life worth living. Grounded in a commitment to social justice, I aim to be compassionate and realistic in how I approach your care. I look forward to creating meaning and understanding in our work together, and promise to be your biggest cheerleader along the way. Helping you find strength and meaning in life is something I care deeply about, especially when it comes to creating space for the things you're scared to talk about. Authentic, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive are all words that describe how I show up in our work together, in a warm environment that offers a gentle push when it's needed. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing help me connect you with your true values and intentions in life, leaving behind the thoughts that keep you stuck. There's also room for humor and joy when it's what's needed. Compassionate and tailored to each person's unique needs and goals, my style centers on meeting you where you're at, no matter where that may be. I also leave space for humor and joy when it’s what’s needed. My path to becoming a therapist began with my journey to becoming a yoga teacher. As I strengthened my yoga practice, my love for community, connection, and holding space flourished. This experience built my passion for providing a space for people to show up as they are and ask for what they need. Today, I bring a systems approach to each session, examining what you're going through from the macro level down to the micro level, to offer you a holistic understanding of your experience. You'll usually find me on my yoga mat, curled up with a good book, or spending time with my cat and my friends. I'm always on the hunt for the next great fidget toy and a new coffee shop with genuinely good coffee, and there's nothing like laying in the park or on the beach to recharge. I also love creating art and getting lost in a good crime documentary.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. You may only know that something feels difficult, that a familiar way of coping is no longer working, or that you want your life or relationships to feel different. In therapy, we work together to understand the thoughts, beliefs, behaviors, and experiences shaping your struggles. As a therapist, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I'll help you build practical coping and emotional regulation skills, approach yourself with greater self-compassion, clarify your values, and respond to challenges with more flexibility and intention. The goal is to strengthen self-trust and create changes that feel meaningful, realistic, and sustainable. I believe meaningful change becomes possible when you feel understood enough to be honest and supported enough to try something new, and my role is to be that steady, compassionate, and active partner as you make sense of what you're carrying and recognize the patterns shaping your choices. We can begin where you are and work toward greater clarity, emotional steadiness, and meaningful change in everyday life. Working with me is warm, collaborative, and active. I create space for you to feel heard while also helping you look honestly at patterns that may be contributing to your distress. In our sessions, I ask thoughtful and sometimes direct questions, offer practical tools, and gently challenge avoidance, self-criticism, black-and-white thinking, or familiar responses that are no longer serving you. Together, we slow down reactions, explore what lies beneath them, and distinguish productive problem-solving from worry or rumination. My approach balances insight with action: we build emotional awareness, strengthen coping and regulation skills, clarify your needs and values, and practice more flexible ways of responding. The goal is not perfection, but greater self-trust and meaningful change. My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by more than two decades of experience across countries, careers, cultures, and life roles. Before entering the mental health field, I worked as a lawyer, filmmaker, nonprofit leader, and mother. Moving through these different identities gave me a deep appreciation for how complex and nonlinear life can be, especially when a relationship, career, identity, or familiar way of living begins to change. These experiences strengthened my commitment to compassionate, culturally responsive care grounded in the realities of each person's life. I bring curiosity, steadiness, and respect for the many parts of each patient's story to my practice now, along with an appreciation for the courage it takes to question familiar patterns and begin again. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, writing, and exploring how stories help us understand ourselves and one another. I also value time with my family, which helps me slow down, remain curious, and stay connected to what matters most.

Reaching out for help can be hard. We will do our best to provide a safe, supportive environment, when you can feel free to share as much as you need to. We consider therapy to be a collaboration between clinician and patient. Our job is to work with you to help you better understand your inner thoughts and feelings so that you can become the best version of you. We tend to follow patterns of behavior based on our earliest identities. Some of us go through life thinking we are not smart enough, not good looking enough, not capable enough, or not as good as others. It's important to understand that these beliefs are not in fact reality, but an internalized sense of self that we have learned from our earliest experiences. Because of these beliefs, we can often find ourselves repeating unhealthy patterns in relationships, how we deal with stress, social isolation, engaging in unhealthy or risky behaviors, and all manner of acting out in self-destructive ways. Therapy can help re-define who you are, so that instead following these unhealthy patterns, you can make choices that are informed by what you really want, as opposed to what you think you deserve. Therapy is not a quick fix. It takes time and commitment, and it is hard. We are ready to make that commitment with you, and be with you on your journey of self-discovery, so that you can become the author of your own life, rather than letting it be written for you. Please contact us for a free consultation.

My areas of focus include mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, trauma and PTSD, and borderline personality disorder. I have experience treating OCD using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP). I provide psychoeducation and appropriate treatment options for trauma and PTSD, and I evaluate patients for borderline personality disorder, especially those with a history of multiple medication trials. I empower my patients by teaching them dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills to help them manage their symptoms and gain insight into how their life experiences affect their current emotions. I'm passionate about educating patients on the importance of validating their emotional experiences, whether they are feelings of happiness, sadness, anger, or anxiety. I also reinforce the importance of nutrition and sleep in treating mental health conditions. I collaborate with my patients by listening with curiosity and regularly asking for feedback on how I can best assist them, whether through practicing skills or helping them build insight. I create a judgment-free space where all emotions are valid and informative, while teaching that reactions can be adjusted to align with personal values.

As a first-generation Latina and hard-of-hearing Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I'm passionate about creating an authentic, one-of-a-kind space where you can work toward autonomy, healing, and personal growth. I've worked with patients across a wide range of ages, ethnic and cultural backgrounds, disability statuses, and mental health challenges, building a safe and empowering space where we can explore your experiences and goals together. Sessions are available in both English and Spanish. Since graduating in 2021, my work has focused on trauma, relational dynamics, interpersonal and intersectional frameworks, identity-building, reconstructing personal narratives, existential processing of life stages, challenging core beliefs, and exploring the systemic and cultural factors that can affect mental health. In all of this work, I'm committed to bringing a holistic, socially just, and collaborative perspective to our sessions, so that therapy feels like a safer, non-judgmental, and meaningful experience for you. Transparency and honesty are central to how I show up in the therapeutic space, because direct communication, accountability, and openness create the kind of supportive environment where real self-growth can happen. In my approach to therapy, I believe the interpersonal experience is key to understanding your unique narrative, perspectives, and intersecting identities, and that understanding is what helps build real insight into the mental health challenges and life experiences you're facing. Supporting your self-reflection, change, curiosity, self-growth, and self-acceptance is at the heart of what I hope our work together can offer. To meet you where you are, I draw on an eclectic mix of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic, interpersonal, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), multicultural, trauma-informed, Internal Family Systems (IFS), relational, person-centered, and narrative therapy. Creative arts, mindfulness, psychoeducation, and humility are also part of how I practice. My path to becoming a therapist began with my own personal challenges with mental health and with how therapy shaped my well-being along the way. Those experiences deepened my desire and commitment to help others with their own mental health journeys. Transitioning from the patient's chair into my therapist's hat gave me a unique, firsthand understanding of the challenges you might face along the way, and it's part of why I'm committed to helping you empower yourself, challenge what's holding you back, and approach your own personal and emotional well-being with humility. When I’m not wearing my therapist hat, I enjoy reading, cooking, dancing, creative arts, makeup artistry, spending time with my dog Zelda, and collecting anything Snoopy related!

As a pre-licensed mental health counselor with three years of experience, I help neurodiverse adolescents and young adults navigate struggles with executive functioning, emotional regulation, life transitions, grief, interpersonal communication, and identity exploration. I love working with patients who are curious about their behaviors and want to learn more about themselves as they navigate their personal mental health journey. My hope is to be an extension of your support system as you move through life’s natural transitions, finding healthier ways to express yourself while offering unconditional positive regard, empathy, and a listening ear. If you feel like this resonates with you, please reach out so we can chat further! When working with younger populations, I integrate play and expressive arts therapies into my sessions. For older populations, I use aspects of Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), allowing patients to have a say in personalizing their space and treatment goals. I take a fluid and ever-changing approach to therapy as I learn new skills and modalities to share, and to better customize care to each person’s unique story and needs. In the first few sessions, we collaboratively set treatment goals and work together to find the most impactful modalities to use. Whether this includes solution-focused activities or meaningful conversations to better process life events, the goal is to give you a space to be authentically yourself with the ability to comfortably share feedback and tailor sessions to better curate your healing journey. I was drawn to the mental health field at a young age through my own struggles to find my voice and better advocate for myself. As a neurodivergent clinician, I empathize with the difficulty in finding a space where individuals feel truly heard and understood. This unique perspective has led me to curating personalized spaces for my patients to make strides toward their treatment goals in a way that feels authentic to them. A huge music enthusiast, I love to attend concerts and musicals on my days off, as well as draw, write, and walk my dog around the neighborhood. I'm also an avid thrifter and am constantly pushing my personal style to new heights!

The Grief & Bereavement Club is the worst club ever, and we all join it eventually – but it doesn't have to be the loss of a loved one that brings us there. My interest is in working with anyone going through a major life change or loss. Whether it's the loss of a person, a pet, a home, or a job, I want to work with you to learn how to live in this new reality of your life. I'm a therapist specializing in grief counseling for those experiencing loss of any kind, be it a loved one, a relationship, a profession, a home, a sense of self, or a terminal illness. Whatever brought you to therapy, I don't care. I'm just glad you're here. I'm honored to be part of your journey, whatever you wish to work on. My goal as a therapist is to help you navigate whatever has brought us together. For those experiencing grief or facing the end of life, we may draw on approaches like Meaning Making, Dignity Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and even Play Therapy. No matter the modality, we’ll look at therapy as a collaborative exercise, and work together to find what you respond to. We'll approach your journey from session to session. Some weeks you may need structure, other times you may just need to be in the moment with someone who listens. We're going to roll with it together, and you can expect some levity along the way. There are so many serious things that bring people to this room; sometimes a little laughter makes all the difference. Before becoming a therapist, I volunteered at domestic abuse emergency shelters and worked as a padded instructor for women's self-defense companies. After a series of personal losses, I found I had gained fluency in the language of grief, and felt called to be of service to those experiencing their own. I've been a martial artist since I was five years old, with belts in Krav Maga, Tang Soo Do, and Eskrima. You'll often find me on the subway reading my book of the month, usually on the way to a theater, a convention, or a renaissance fair.

Welcome to Jocelyn Bibi Therapy! I approach the therapeutic relationship with collaboration at the forefront: no one person is the same, or needs the same things. You can expect me to be a thought partner and an ally; I am here to help guide you through challenges, setbacks and exploration in a safe, non-judgmental environment. I will work with you to connect with yourself in order to reach the goals we set together, or to feel empowered to be curious about who you are and where you are. In our sessions you will be in a safe, warm environment, free to look inside yourself and delve into the crux of what has been happening for you. I value connection wholeheartedly; I believe that in order for therapy to work the client and therapist need to have a strong, trusting working relationship. I am approachable and compassionate, and with a bit of humor, calmness and commitment to the work, I know we can help you achieve what you want to achieve.

Hi, I’m Mirabelle. I bring a warm and patient curiosity to my clients that creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore what has brought you into therapy. Before working in private practice, I was a hospice social worker supporting people facing terminal illnesses and their caregivers. Accompanying people through illness and death has given me a reverence for existential questions and transitions––for what it really means to be alive. I understand therapy as a space to explore these questions. My therapeutic approach is psychodynamic, which means we will discover how your early experiences and relationships, as well as your unconscious life, shape your present. We will move at the pace that feels right for you. Together, we will find the words to make meaning out of your experience. Our work will help to reduce the symptoms that are causing you problems as well as deepen your connection to yourself and others. I am guided by anti-oppressive principles. In addition to my work in hospice, I have worked in community based and outpatient mental health settings with queer folks, people with serious mental illness and personality disorders, and complex trauma. I enjoy working with people who have received mental health diagnoses, and themes related to illness and medical trauma.

As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I specialize in depression and anxiety, OCD, self-esteem, relationship issues, stress management, and life transitions for young adults and adults who want more than just a space to process difficult emotions. If you’re looking for practical tools, greater self-awareness, and the ability to navigate life's challenges with growing confidence and independence, then I am here for you. Therapy, to me, works best when it feels like a genuine partnership. I bring authenticity, curiosity, and respect to every session, and am committed to being a warm, honest presence as you work toward the life you want to create. Together, we'll explore the patterns that may be holding you back, develop skills that actually fit your life, and build the insight you need to keep moving forward. I don't believe therapy is about someone else having the answers for you. At its core, it's about creating space to slow down, get curious about yourself, and develop the tools needed to move through life with more confidence and intention. That belief shapes everything about how I work. You are the expert on your own life, and my role is to help you reconnect with your strengths, explore your experiences with openness, and gain a clearer understanding of the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Rather than directing what you should do, I'll support you in discovering what feels right for you and help you build the confidence to trust yourself along the way. In practice, I draw on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and somatic interventions. Sessions are welcoming and nonjudgmental, a space where you can learn to respond to emotions more effectively and strengthen your ability to act in alignment with your values. My interest in becoming a therapist started early in life. After losing loved ones, I found myself wanting to be a source of support for my family during the hardest moments. As I grew older, that desire evolved into a deeper passion for understanding people and the human experience. Through studying psychology and social psychology, I became fascinated by the ways our thoughts, emotions, relationships, and environments shape how we move through the world. I carry this passion and curiosity with me now, offering a genuine investment in understanding who you are and what you need to move forward. When I'm not working, I love exploring my creative side through art, cooking, baking, and decorating. I'm also an avid runner and regularly race half-marathons. Both creativity and running have taught me a great deal about myself, from learning how to navigate challenges and adapt to setbacks to appreciating the value of patience, curiosity, and growth.
