Therapists for college students near New York, NY

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addiction Specialist with over 25 years of experience in the field. Through a cognitive behavioral treatment approach I provide my patients with a safe, trusting and comfortable environment that allows them the space to reflect, process and strategize ways to enhance their lives to live to their fullest potential. I currently serve on the faculty of the NYU Graduate School of Social Work as a Clinical Professor and Advisor, and also provide clinical supervision to those clinicians seeking NYS/NJ licensure. I also work very closely with NJ/ NYC court system to assist those clients who are justice involved. Please visit my website for additional details.

Your emotional wellness is not a luxury – it’s a necessity in an ever-changing society. In order to create real change in your life, you must care for your mental health needs. I provide quality therapy for young professionals in NYC, couples therapy, and perinatal therapy. No matter what your age or relationship status, if you’re here it’s because you’re looking to make a change. Maybe you don’t feel good enough – you’re insecure and not sure what your next step is. Or perhaps you’re overloaded with tasks and your anxiety is through the roof, you’re feeling so overwhelmed that you don’t even know where to begin. Living in a world of anxiety and worry takes a toll on your mental health. If you find yourself not feeling good enough, or you’re taking care of others instead of yourself, it might be time to seek help. I support people going through major life transitions such as becoming a parent, starting a relationship or dealing with the breakup, having work-related stress, becoming an entrepreneur, or getting through graduate school. I also work with clients who suffer from low self-esteem and those who feel like there’s something in the way of enjoying life. By providing safe and supportive space in therapy, I empower clients to feel good about themselves, build resiliency and take steps towards greater happiness. In my practice, I believe that therapy shouldn’t be a one-size-fits-all experience. I utilize elements of CBT, Internal Family Therapy, Mindfulness, and Gestalt therapies which are tailored to your unique needs. You will learn coping skills to manage anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship problems, social anxiety, and criticism.

I am a licensed psychologist in NY and NJ. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship issues. I have extensive experience conducting a wide range of psychological evaluations and assessments such as ADHD testing, Autism Spectrum Disorder evaluations, intelligence and cognitive functioning evaluations. I am committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where clients can explore their challenges, develop healthy coping skills, and achieve meaningful growth.

Therapy can offer a space for reflection, relief, and growth. It takes courage to begin, and I will gladly come alongside to support you during our work together. As an evidence-based Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), I help teens and adults of all backgrounds and identities navigate a range of mental health challenges. These include intense waves of emotion, ruminating thoughts, anxiety and depression, relationship issues, emotional regulation and self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. In our sessions, you can expect a warm and judgment-free environment that uses integrated methods to help you as a whole, not just the symptoms you experience. I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), ensuring a relational, collaborative, and person-centered approach at all times. Together, we'll work to create understanding while discussing practical coping skills for your real-life experiences. I've always been drawn to learning and understanding why and how people experience the things they do, both the positives and the hardships. This also led me to want to support others, whether volunteering in my community or working professionally. Over the years, I've worked across a range of mental health settings, including outpatient, intensive outpatient, and inpatient care. From these experiences, I bring a steady and open-minded perspective to each session. Outside of therapy, I love trying new restaurants with friends, playing pick ball and the guitar, and making the most of my AMC Stubs!

Many of the students I work with seem like they have everything together on the outside, but internally feel anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who they are. You may be high-achieving, creative, or thoughtful, yet constantly overthinking, second-guessing yourself, struggling with perfectionism, or trying to meet expectations that never fully feel like enough. Over time, it can become exhausting to keep pushing through while quietly carrying stress, pressure, anxiety, or self-doubt on your own. In our work together, we slow things down and explore what’s driving that pressure beneath the surface. Therapy becomes a space to reconnect with your own voice, values, identity, and sense of direction so life begins to feel more grounded, authentic, and emotionally sustainable — not something you constantly have to perform your way through.
