Therapists for college students near Boston, MA

I work with adolescents and adults struggling with grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other life stressors. Typically, the individuals I work with want to process past trauma and grief, strengthen interpersonal and communication skills, deepen their understanding of their own behavioral patterns, and increase their distress tolerance and emotional regulation skills. I am fluent in Spanish and have experience and interest in working with latino/a/e first and second generation immigrants. I approach therapy with a variety of modalities, but I specialize in grief counseling and EMDR.

Do you look like you’re doing fine, but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or constantly “on” inside? Many of my clients are high-achieving teens, young adults, and adults tired of overthinking, burnout, or pressure to keep it all together. Some are navigating perfectionism, ADHD, or emotional overwhelm that makes life feel heavier than it should. In our work together, we slow things down, make sense of your patterns, and build practical tools that actually fit you.

Some of the students who connect best with me are those who have spent a long time pushing through difficult emotions on their own. They may be dealing with depression, the effects of past experiences, relationship struggles, or a general sense that something feels off, even if they cannot fully explain why. Many are tired of feeling like they have to keep everything bottled up or figure things out by themselves. Through WellQor, I provide online therapy for college students and young adults, and WellQor accepts most major insurance plans to help make care more accessible. I believe meaningful therapy starts with feeling comfortable enough to be honest about what is really going on. My role is not to tell you who you should be or what choices to make, but to help you better understand yourself, your experiences, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I am especially interested in working with students who are struggling with depression, trauma, or difficult life experiences that continue to affect how they see themselves and relate to others. In our work together, we can explore those experiences at a pace that feels manageable while also focusing on practical ways to improve your day to day life. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, understood, and able to talk openly about the things that matter most to you.

Hi, I'm Tammy. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from Fordham University and more than five years of outpatient experience. I love partnering with adults from all walks of life, and I bring a warm, trauma-informed approach to everything we do together. Most of my clients come to me while navigating anxiety, depression, major life transitions, or relationship challenges. These are the moments when it is easiest to feel alone, and my goal is to help you build resilience, form healthier connections, and rediscover a sense of calm that may feel out of reach right now. I draw on tools like CBT, ACT, and DBT and tailor our work to what actually fits your life. I believe you are in the driver's seat of your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and my job is to help you find your way there. Therapy with me is a safe, judgment-free space where you can show up exactly as you are, untangle what feels tangled, and move toward the version of yourself you want to be. When I'm not with clients, you'll find me traveling, trying new cafes, and making my daily matcha latte. I see clients through WellQor, which provides online therapy so you can meet with me from wherever you are most comfortable. To get started, visit the WellQor website and fill out the Get Started form. A patient liaison will then text you the next steps and help schedule your first session.

I am a weight-inclusive, trauma-informed licensed Clinical Psychologist offering a therapeutic space where clients can reconnect with themselves and others by gaining insight into their relationships. My aim is to work with you to create positive and lasting change. I specialize in the treatment of disordered eating (including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, obesity and body image concerns) as well as co-occurring mood disorders. In addition, I have extensive experience treating a wide range of concerns including significant life transitions, anxiety, stress and relationship difficulty (room mates, partners, etc.). I also have experience in working with individuals in academic and medical profession. I treat adolescents and adults. I work with my client's treatment team that may include your psychiatrist, dietician, and PCP as well as family and other supports.

My therapeutic approach is evidence-based, client centered, treatments delivered with compassion, humor and intelligence. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and include elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Art Therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation.

College life can feel like a lot sometimes. It’s “supposed” to be fun, but there’s often so much to navigate that it ends up feeling overwhelming. I often work with students dealing with anxiety, relationship stress, and social or family worries — whether that means overthinking, feeling unsure in friendships or dating, or trying to make sense of complicated dynamics. Many students come in wanting to understand their reactions and emotions, and to feel more in control of their anxiety so it doesn’t interfere with their college experience. In our sessions, I’m committed to creating a warm, supportive space where you can feel safe exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. With patience and careful listening, I offer insights and guidance in a gentle, thoughtful, and non-judgmental way. Together, we’ll slow things down so you can make sense of what’s happening beneath the stress — the patterns, experiences, and dynamics that shape how you think, feel, and relate to others. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and more grounded, so you can move through college with greater confidence and a stronger connection to yourself.

College can feel overwhelming — and for many students, it’s the first time they’re navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or difficult relationships without the support systems they grew up with. If you’ve been struggling to focus, feeling stuck, or carrying something that’s hard to name, therapy can help. I’m Lexie, a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience. I work with young adults who are trying to understand themselves better — why they feel the way they do, why certain patterns keep showing up, and how to build a life that actually feels like theirs. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I draw on a wide range of evidence-based methods — including CBT, IFS, DBT, somatic work, and mindfulness — and I tailor everything to you. There’s no one-size-fits-all here. I specialize in; • ADHD and executive function • Anxiety and social anxiety • Depression • Trauma and PTSD • Perfectionism • Identity and relationship patterns • College adjustment and academic stress Whether you’re dealing with something specific or just know that something feels off, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
