Therapists for college students near New York, NY
I believe in finding the "silver linings" when faced w/ challenges. We all go through highs & lows in life, but sometimes the lows can begin to feel overwhelming. My goal as a therapist is to help guide you through your challenges by offering a nonjudgmental space w/ gentle feedback & direction.
I've specialized in helping college students through tough times for almost two decades. Through a warm, down-to-earth, collaborative approach I'll partner with you to achieve your goals for change and find peace with the way life is. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a focus on mindfulness and your unique strengths, I can help you understand and change unhelpful thoughts, feelings and behaviors. My specialty areas include managing anxiety, coping with stress around relationships, family, work, life and world transitions, improving self esteem and living with ADHD. Through our work you'll develop a better awareness of who you are, what you want and how to get it. I'll help you discover and feel confident in yourself, and figure out how to live the life you desire. Together we'll identify problem areas or places where you feel stuck and find new ways of responding to create more enjoyable, fulfilling outcomes. Change is always possible, even when problems feel insurmountable. Making an appointment for therapy is often a brave first step in the healing and growth process. I offer a free, initial phone consultation to see if we'd be a good fit. Any time you're are ready to chat, I'd love to hear from you.
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.
If you are ready for a change and your old patterns are not working for you, together we will explore healthy, realistic changes to improve the quality of your life and relationships. I work with my clients to help identify and explore ways to help make their everyday life and struggles easier. Together we build a trusting environment to create positive change. I help my clients address mental health needs such as depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I believe that counseling is a pathway for growth and healing. My job as your counselor is to give you the tools to do just that. My therapeutic style is collaborative, empathetic and genuine. I find that both challenge and encouragement helps individuals make optimal changes. I aim to teach skills that will help you better manage emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I provide a collaborative, nonjudgmental, and inviting space with the opportunity to promote self-reflection. I would like to help you develop hope and positive curiosity about your inner life and the opportunities for growth and healing that lie before you. I look forward to the opportunity to guide you along this path!

My clients usually approach me when they are ready to make a change in their lives. They are experiencing conflicts, inside themselves or with others, and are looking for an empathic, flexible and dynamic clinician to provide support and guidance. With clients and within myself, I emphasize maintaining mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health and wellness practices, as well as, feelings of HOPE and self acceptance. My clients and I are both “agents of change,” constantly progressing, and continuously developing through this journey called life. I am currently licensed and practicing in the state of California and New Jersey. I also have a permit to practice in New York supervised by Dr. Melissa Laracuenta- Hernandez.

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.
