Therapists for college students near Boston, MA
I have been a therapist for 20+ years and most of those years have been working with college students on college campuses. Several of those years were spent as an assistant director or director of mental health services at a large university. Maybe you're feeling let down at school, like this isn't how it was supposed to be. Maybe it seems like everyone else has found their friend group but you only feel connected to acquaintances. Maybe you're experiencing anxiety or depression or both. Whether your concerns are related to starting college, graduating, or somewhere in between, let's talk this through together and find your path to feeling your best. No issue is too big or too small. I am licensed in MA and I am a registered telehealth provider in FL, so I can see clients in person in my Natick, MA office or by video anywhere in MA or FL. I see clients aged 16 and up.

A working machine is comprised of many cogs and gears that must interlock seamlessly in order to function. Our minds are not all that different. One faulty belief can throw our whole center off balance. That is why counseling can be beneficial. Gaining a new perspective is the same as getting a realignment. Counseling can be a life-altering journey as it offers a judgement-free atmosphere to explore our deepest fears, sorrows, and triumphs. The sharing of these experiences can open our minds up to new ideas and perspectives that we may be struggle to uncover on our own.

Having the ability to express yourself freely and without judgment is an essential part of therapy, and the relationship between client and therapist is a key aspect of this. As a social worker, I recognize the importance of human relationships and the environment we live in, as well as the negative impact they have on our ability to function. I utilize a person-centered, strengths based approach to understand individuals as a whole, and work collaboratively with clients to address their challenges and reach their goals. I provide individual therapy focusing on anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. Identifying as a nonbinary lesbian myself, I understand how difficult it is to find a competent provider with whom you feel safe and understood. If you’ve made it this far, I encourage you to take the next step and reach out so we can see if this would be a good fit for both of us.
