Therapists for college students near New York, NY

I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) in Claverack (next to the city of Hudson) in Columbia County, NY. I am passionate about authentic self-expression and somatic experience in psychotherapy. I specialize in treating anxiety, attachment, trauma and relationships for children and adults. My approach is a seasoned blend of Somatic/Attachment work based on the DARe Method with Expressive Art Therapy, especially Music Therapy. I also specialize in Music Therapy for children on the Autism spectrum and young people who are less responsive to talk therapy. I have worked in the foster care system in the state of New York since 2010. I am trained and experienced in working with children and families from diverse backgrounds. I obtained my psychotherapy license (LCAT) in 2020 and am currently working in private practice in the Hudson Valley. I am also a musician, and a multi-instrumentalist. Among my background is extensive training in the meditative tradition of Indian Classical music on the Bansuri flute. I incorporate therapeutic music experiences in two ways: music making together and/or receptive methods in which client can receive somatic sound experiences. I love being in nature, playing music, spending time with my wife and two kids, swimming hiking and camping, and playing my heart out. Feel free to reach out for a free consultation!

I specialize in working with young adults struggling with anxiety. During your college years, there is a lot of pressure to figure out who you are and what you want to do with your life. It can seem like everyone else has it figured out or maybe you wonder if you're the only one who feels anxious or uncertain about the future. I will help you work through that anxiety and develop the skills and tools you'll need to feel more confident.

Have you felt unbalanced and uncertain with new life transitions? Have you had a difficult time managing stress and anxiety? Dealing with difficult emotions that arise through challenging life transitions can negatively impact self esteem, relationships and work. You may feel isolated and confused when dealing with these emotions. Reaching out for guidance and support, while it may seem frightening, can allow you to regain a sense of self, balance, and joy in your life. It is my hope to help guide you in your journey through difficult emotions and life transitions. You will be able to work toward a better understanding of self, a feeling of purpose, and increased self esteem. As you learn healthy coping skills and maintain consistent dedication to the therapeutic process you can begin to find your sense of self. I have a specialty in Creative Arts Therapy with over 4 years of experience. My style is creative, warm, and authentic. While it is difficult to reach out for help, I hope to provide an environment that fosters safety and growth. I invite you to reach out and take the next step toward reaching your mental health and wellness goals.

Being a college student today is HARD. Managing academic stress, navigating relationship dynamics, making big life decisions, coping with financial pressures, and figuring out what comes next is a lot. Maybe you're also feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or depressed. Although it might feel that way, you're not alone. As a therapist, I employ my 13+ years of experience working with diverse groups of adolescents and young adults to make you feel safe, supported, and heard. We'll work together to get to the root of what you're experiencing, so that you can live the fulfilling life you deserve. I provide convenient, flexible telemental health services, which means you can get the support you need while being comfortable in your own space.

As an Attachment based EMDR Certified Therapist I work well with high achieving young adults who feel unsatisfied in their relationships and struggle with health challenges.

My practice involves first taking time to establish comfortability and trust. From there, I introduce everyone to a variety of approaches depending on what suits their needs helps then meet their goals.

Sometimes life seems to be throwing too many things at us all at once. Counseling can help you develop tools to slow things down and deal with them in the way that works best for you. Whether the problem feels big or small, we can all use a little help sometimes. Let me help you create your own path forward.

I often work with young people struggling to understand who they are and why they do the things they do. This may be felt as a gnawing sense of dissatisfaction or despair, or a more intense experience of feeling lost and out of control. We work together to identify your concerns in a safe environment that emphasizes giving language to emotional experience, identifying unconscious patterns of behavior, and finding meaning in your life.

You are the expert of your own experience and know best what supports you and what may no longer be serving you. In our work together, I will seek to highlight and validate how the social environment and systems have impacted your relationship with yourself and others, and to use the therapy space as an opportunity to dismantle hierarchies. To do this, I use an integrated, person-centered psychodynamic approach grounded in compassion. This includes using concepts from Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatics, mindfulness and analysis. I identify as queer and will bring a queer lens to our work together by asking how you have constructed meaning of your world, by recognizing your strengths and by supporting you in developing new insight. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work, an artist and an educator. I have experience working with people in creative fields, navigating their gender and sexual identities, anxiety, depression, life and career transitions and higher education.

College life can be exciting and fulfilling, but also may be daunting and overwhelming at times. Maintaining grades in school, navigating relationships and exploring new experiences may be a lot to do all on your own. My passion lies in helping people adjust to life transitions, and in healing from trauma. Learning what you bring to relationships due to your own upbringing and earlier experiences will help you to be more intentional in your current interactions. I also care about helping people heal what perpetuates their substance use, while working to gain coping skills, and plan for a life of recovery.

We bring virtual mental health solutions for those defined by many life experiences, cultures, identities, and environments. We are committed to providing personalized mental health care for you if you are struggling with adjusting to college, using substances, organization, attention and mood changes.

I am a certified eating disorder specialist with over 10 years of experience working with individuals who struggle with their relationship with food, body image, and self.

My work is to help you create a better relationship with your body and food that can help lead to a more satisfaction in life. I also work with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and the life transitions. Together we will create coping strategies to navigate through the mess and sometimes just to hold space to sit in the messiness that can be life. My work is collaborative. I am not here to tell you what to do but instead meet you where you are at and guide you to your goals that you want to meet in therapy. I bring warmth, compassion and of course some humor into our work together.
