Therapists for college students near New York, NY
I realize that the decision to start therapy is not an easy one. Being in therapy is both a challenging and rewarding experience that can help you achieve life goals and help you reduce stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. I consider it a privilege to work as a psychologist and to be a part of my clients’ lives. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked in a college counseling center for 6 years. I thoroughly enjoy meeting with college students and helping them navigate the challenges they are facing. Feel free to contact me by phone or email if you would like to set up a first appointment or learn more about my practice.
Discovery Strength. Find Healing. Obsessing about food and your body is overwhelming. It’s time to break FREE and find balance in your life. At Strength & Healing, we are here to support you on your journey to feeling like you are enough – just as you are. Because it’s time to kick those constant thoughts and obsessions about food, weight, and negative self-image to the curb. It may not feel like freedom is possible right now and we aren’t saying it won’t take work, but we are saying that YOU are worth it!
I believe that being in therapy is about creating space for positive change. When we can slow down and make room for ourselves, we can grow and create lasting adjustments that make our lives more balanced and enjoyable. I work collaboratively with clients, providing a safe and non-judgmental space to explore issues, problem solve, navigate life transitions, develop new and creative coping skills, and strengthen one’s relationship with themselves and with others. I specialize in helping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction recovery. I also work extensively with artists of all kinds who are experiencing creative blocks or stagnation in their art/creative practices and life. Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses art materials and the creative process to help people express, process, and integrate their thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Art therapy is for everyone, not just people who identify as artists or have experience with the visual arts. Clients see me for talk therapy and or art therapy. All sessions are tailored to the preferences and goals of my clients. My approach is holistic and person-center, integrating traditional talk therapies and art therapy with mindfulness/body-based practices. I am a patient and compassionate therapist, who values humor and direct communication, dedicated to supporting my clients in their healing process and personal growth, enacting the changes they desire to see within themselves.
If you're reading this you've already taken the first step towards improving your mental health. Congratulations! Life can be overwhelming, I believe we all have a mental backpack we fill with the pebbles and rocks created by the stress and experiences in our life. Eventually the straps fray, it gets heavy, and your back begins to ache. My goal is to help lighten the load! Therapy's an invaluable tool in learning to cope with life's stresses. Through a dynamic of trust and collaboration I strive to create a warm, judgment-free, safe space to explore yourself and the world around you. At your own pace (with some nudges along the way) you’ll gain the self-knowledge and skills needed to live a more stable and fulfilled life. Finding the right therapist can be challenging, and not every clinician is the right fit. I always encourage people to reach out for a free 15 minute consultation by email or through Alma if you think I might be the right person for you

I have extensive experience working with individuals navigating addiction and recovery, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and stress. I also incorporate DBT-informed coping skills—particularly mindfulness—which I’ve found to be powerful tools in both clinical work and everyday life. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you. I typically structure sessions around one or two main areas to help keep our work focused and meaningful. Treatment planning is a collaborative process, and I strive to make sure it aligns with your unique needs and goals. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and taking that first step is a brave decision. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and empowered.

I take an active and engaged role with my clients by asking questions and offering ideas. I approach therapy as a collaborative process with the intention of reducing suffering, increasing self-understanding, and cultivating deeper and more compassionate relationships.
