Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Welcome! If you're here, reading this, I want to tell you how great it is that you're looking for support. It's a scary process and one with many twists and turns. I work with people, just like you, who are trying to figure things out, get their footing and understand what their options are. Although we'd all love one, there is no playbook for how to make tough decisions, navigate all the big feelings and situations that come up while you're also trying to do well in school and, frankly, attempt to enjoy the experience of being at college. But it can be tough to make all the pieces work for you. That's what we do together - we figure out what's working for you, what's not going so well and what you'd like to do to make changes. Therapy can sound a bit overwhelming - it's really just a long running conversation. Perhaps you're an old hat at therapy but you've needed to find someone new - that's challenging in its own way. Whatever you're looking for, it's good that you've started. If you're ready, curious or just want to know more, please don't hesitate to reach out for a consult call where we'd get to know each other a bit, see if we'd be a good fit and go from there! And it's free! If I'm not for you - and I'm not, that's the way this works - that's OK and together we can figure out what might be a bit better fitting. I hope to hear from you and in the meantime, wish you the best.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Practitioner who earned my degree from New York University's Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness program. Throughout my work in community mental health, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and other emotional challenges. My approach is collaborative, faith-based, compassionate, and client-centered, drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help clients build resilience, develop healthier coping strategies, and work toward their personal goals.

Welcome to Ascend Psychiatry where a quick answered phone will connect you to the right provider all within days and not weeks. We are proud to say that we even offer same day appts.

Avita iCare, is a boutique group practice with an emphasis on the reduction of anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflicts, and other self-defeating patterns of thinking and behaving. We are unique in that we effectively integrate cognitive, psychophysiological, psychodynamic, and psychospiritual models in support of our patients’ goals of comprehensive wellbeing. In psychotherapy, we work to strengthen our patient’s ability to cope with everyday hassles, manage more serious psychological conditions, gain self-awareness and meaning to their life. From the point of psychophysiological changes, we employ empirically-supported interventions, such as Biofeedback, to achieve measurable and sustainable results in strengthening patients’ autonomic self-regulation and improving their recovery from stress.

Are you struggling with mood disorders, anxiety issues, OCD, or eating disorders? I provide mental health care for adults with a multimodal approach, ensuring relevant and informed patient care personalized to your specific lifestyle, wants, and needs. You are a unique individual with your own neurobiochemical makeup, which is why we work together to create a holistic treatment plan that you feel is realistic and sustainable. My specialty is in taking in a functional approach to psychiatry, with goals to discover the root cause of symptoms, provide options for treatment, and offer education for an informed therapeutic journey. I look forward to exploring the best options for you in our work together. Working together, you can expect a collaborative, therapeutic relationship, nonjudgmental environment, and creative solutions. I believe in taking a holistic approach while practicing with current evidence-based treatments, incorporating medications, psychotherapy, lifestyle counseling, and functional/nutritional psychiatry. My style of psychotherapy is integrative, combining Mindfulness, psychodynamic, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy concepts/practices. Before becoming a Psych NP, I practiced as an RN in numerous medical specialties and discovered a passion for psychiatry over time. I saw how mental health was not equally prioritized to physical health, and believe it is all connected. This experience allows me to bring a well-rounded medical background to patient care while addressing psychiatric needs, contributing to holistic treatment.

Often in therapy we work to bring what's unconscious into consciousness, which can create more agency, freedom, and choice. As both a psychotherapist and writer, I believe in the power of finding connections between that which is seemingly disconnected in order to uncover a deeper understanding of oneself and the way one relates to others and the world. I specialize in treating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, interpersonal relational difficulties, and life transitions. Using a psychodynamic framework and relational lens, my work is informed by both psychoanalytic theories and Buddhist psychology. I often draw from Internal Family Systems framework and specialize in psychedelic integration psychotherapy. I received my psychotherapeutic education from New York University, The National Institute for the Psychotherapies, and Nalanda Institute’s Contemplative Psychotherapy Program. I hold an MSW from NYU, an MFA from The New School, and a BA from Boston College. For more info: alipowerpsychotherapy.com.

Hello! Thank you for your interest in starting therapy. I have a lot of experience supporting college and advanced degree students who are dealing with anxiety, OCD, and stress. I take a CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), goals-focused approach. I am licensed in Massachusetts and New York and I can see students in either state--in fact, I work with a number of students who go to school in MA but live in NY when they are not on campus and vice versa. I'd be happy to set up a time to talk so you can ask any questions that you have to see if it would be a good fit for you.

Welcome! I am a seasoned therapist with many years of experience working with folks who are struggling with things like finding balance in their lives, managing stress, coping with mood issues (anxiety, depression, etc.) and managing conflicts and/or finding meaningful connections in their relationships with others. Overall, many of us are just trying to find more peace, a greater understanding of ourselves and increased confidence in our ability to manage stressors and life events as they come our way. My hope is to help people identify barriers to progress and develop helpful strategies so that they can feel more content and functional in their every day lives. I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you via a free phone consultation. Feel free to contact me via phone or email to set up an appointment.
