Therapists for college students near 78712

Hello, and welcome. You've taken the hardest step already in looking for help! I am a Texas and Massachusetts based Licensed Professional Counselor. I am a Marriage and Family therapist and Individual therapist. I work best with individuals AND couples, whether you're in a committed relationship, whether it is a spouse, or partner, or friend, or another human being! If you need help communicating, or interacting, in a healthier, more assertive way with another person, I would love to work with you. Family of origin, and childhood wounds is an area we can explore, together. You don't have to do this alone anymore. Everything relates back to relationship, whether it's to ourselves, or another person! I also specialize in helping people with anxiety, depression, and related issues. If you are wanting to just talk, and process things, or learn effective tools, skills, to change how you're functioning, you've come to the right place.

Are you tired of people telling you how strong you are? Friends, family and even some therapists will often say this with the best of intentions. True healing, however, moves beyond pure resiliency. We must go further than just managing our emotions and begin to process and heal them so we can move through. As your therapist I will be both companion and challenger along your journey. I will walk alongside you and bring a genuine sense of compassion to any difficulties you may face. I offer a safe, open and non-judgmental space for you to find your own voice and equip you with tools to move forward and reach a more contented life. My therapeutic approach is integrative and incorporates a blend of cognitive behavioral, body based, emotion focused, family systems and relational orientations. I offer a holistic approach to treatment, taking into account your personality and life circumstances to create a specialized plan which reflects your own unique goals and gifts.

My name is Bintou Schoen and I am a board certified general adult psychiatrist. I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background working with people with trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, psychosis, social anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, grief and loss, relationship problems, etc. I received my undergraduate degree in Microbiology from the University of Georgia. I then attended the Medical College of Georgia where I obtained my medical degree. After that, I received my psychiatric training at the University of South Florida in Tampa Florida. I perform psychiatric evaluations and formulate treatment plans with input from my patients - no single approach is right for every individual. I very much like a positive and practical approach to mental health treatment including medication management and therapy. I think it is important to find balance in your life and it starts with improving self-esteem and good self care. I like a person centered approach meaning finding solutions that work for you based on your values and priorities.

Through over 20 years of practice I have found that people usually seek therapy because they are experiencing something that is too difficult to bear without additional help and support. Life can seem unjust when bad things happen to good people, or when best efforts are not leading to desired outcomes. These challenges are opportunities for renewal and growth. Especially during a time of crisis or transition, the ability to safely connect and openly share thoughts and feelings, while receiving genuine emotional support, clarifying insights, and effective tools for coping can be truly life changing. This is the gift of therapy. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorders (such as OCD, tic disorders, hair pulling, skin picking and hoarding). I use evidence-based treatment models (ERP, HRT, CBT and EMDR). Research tells us that the therapeutic relationship is a critical factor in determining outcomes, so finding a therapist who is right for you is key. Call for a free 15 minute phone consultation so that you can interview me and decide if I'm a good fit.

My goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where you can breathe a little easier and feel genuinely understood.

You might struggle with a harsh inner critic, where anything less than perfection feels like failure, causing you to question your self-worth. This can lead to persistent feelings of guilt, shame, or inadequacy. The definition of success you inherited may not align with your desires, creating cognitive dissonance and internal conflict. You may have a path you want to follow for your life, but fear disappointing those around you, or you may struggle to define your goals at all. You deserve a therapist who understands your story. Former software engineer turned therapist, I understand pressures of high expectations and stressful environments. As a first-generation immigrant with 8 years in IT, multiple degrees, and clinical experience, I offer a unique cultural and psychological perspective. Together, we'll move beyond perfectionism and negative self-talk to find strength and joy. Our cultures of origin are beautiful, but they have unique challenges.

I have experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds, and I love creating a warm and calming environment where you can be confident you will be understood and accepted.

You’re juggling a lot. Classes, work, friends, family, money, maybe figuring out who you are and what you actually want from life. And somewhere in the middle of all that, your mental health is supposed to “keep up.” My practice is here for that in-between space—when things aren’t exactly falling apart, but they’re definitely not okay. I work with college students who are dealing with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, relationship stress, grief, and big life transitions. Together, we slow things down, sort through the noise, and build practical tools you can actually use in real life. Sessions are judgment-free, conversational, and tailored to you—no pressure to be “put together” or say the perfect thing. You can come as you are: exhausted, unsure, overwhelmed, or just curious about therapy. If you’re ready to feel a little less stuck and a little more like yourself again, you’re in the right place.

If you are reading this, I am so proud of you for taking this first step to prioritize your mental and emotional needs. Starting therapy can feel daunting at times. I offer a safe and supportive environment to talk about the things that feel heavy, painful, and confusing. My primary specialty areas include anxiety, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and body-focused repetitive behaviors. I have experience providing therapy at the inpatient and intensive outpatient levels of care. As a result, my counseling approach is eclectic to include, cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, exposure response prevention (ERP), & eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR). Life can feel chaotic and overwhelming. I am here to walk with you as we work together to process through the things that feel unbearable – you don’t have the bear these things alone!

I support people with concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, self-esteem, burnout, and big life transitions. My goal is to create a calm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can talk openly about what’s really going on and learn healthier ways to handle life’s challenges. I especially enjoy working with students who are juggling academic pressure, perfectionism, relationship stress, identity questions, and the feeling of being overwhelmed. Therapy with me is collaborative and practical. We focus on what you want to work on and what will actually help in your day-to-day life. I like to give you tools, insight, and strategies you can use outside of session, not just talk about problems. I’ll meet you where you are, support you, and gently challenge you when it helps you grow. We focus mostly on the present and future, and we explore the past when it’s useful for your healing. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling more grounded, confident, and capable of handling whatever comes next.

If you are looking for a different type of counselor where you build an authentic relationship, you’re in the right place. To best help my patients, I believe that a solid and authentic relationship must be built between counselor and you. The most important part about counseling is that you feel heard and comfortable. My experience consists of 6 plus years of working with adults and adolescents in a private health setting. I have a Master’s degree in Counseling from the University of North Texas. As a counselor, I have worked with patients who have anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, and grief/grieving issues. My specialties lie in working with patients who have experienced domestic violence, sexual assault, trauma, and pregnancy issues, and abortion. Although I do follow a combination of counseling theories, my main framework would be Humanistic “Person-centered.” This means that I have great respect for your autonomy and your ability to discern your own path, solutions, and direction in life. My goal in therapy is to help you discover the answers that lie within yourself to better your life at a pace that you feel comfortable with. I look forward to helping you create some relief from your worries in life. Whether that's the stress and frustrations of daily life or overcoming personal trauma, I'm confident I can help guide you through the bad days and bring a different perspective that will help you take back control of your life.
