Dr. Carolyn Alter
College and grad school is a time for self-discovery, building connections with peers, and finding your place in the world. But let's be real, it's not always easy. College and grad school bring up a lot of unique challenges. Whether you’re struggling with relationships, questioning your identity, or feeling overwhelmed by academic pressure and expectations, it’s okay to feel like things are tough. I’m here to support you, and together we’ll find what’s not working and tap into your strengths to help you create a more fulfilling and balanced experience.
I'm dedicated to helping you find hope, healing, and understanding during challenging times. My true passion lies in cultivating long-term, meaningful connections with students, creating a space where you can freely explore your deepest concerns.
