Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Upon completing my fellowship at the Yale Child Study Center, I've devoted my career to Pediatric Psychology, with a specialization in young adult (18 - 25) issues: stress management, ADHD, anxiety, depression, social difficulties, academic issues, identity development, and career planning. Call anytime! I know how much courage it takes to reach out for help. We can schedule a consultation right away to talk about your path to wellness.

I have 10+ years of experience in outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and inpatient therapy services with adolescents, adults, groups, and couples. This experience enables me to meet you where you are and offer effective individualized care.

I provide individual therapy, consultations, neuropsychological assessments, and group-based services for children, teens, and adults. Across services, I offer personalized, compassionate care and help individuals and families harness sources of strength and resilience. Throughout this process, clients are better able to handle and cope with difficult circumstances in a busy world. More specifically, I use evidence-based approaches, such as CBT or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, to help clients address concerns and make changes that improve quality of life across contexts, including relationships with family or friends, school or work experiences, and overall wellbeing. Implicit to my practice is the belief that each one of us possesses the emotional wherewithal and many of the skills needed to navigate life’s journey; sometimes we just need to gain additional perspective and access workable strategies to move forward.

What could you navigate in a safe space? I will use a warm, compassionate approach as we explore what you might be seeking. Perhaps you long for fulfillment or a clarified sense of purpose. Maybe you feel stuck in patterns that don't serve you. Perhaps you are sad or anxious, grappling with a relationship, or coping with a loss. I believe sorting out your thoughts and feelings together can yield a more enjoyable life. My background is concentrated in medicine and mental health, with a particular attention to the mind-body connection. I tend to work with a lot of college students and enjoy assisting clients with life transitions and identity exploration. My specialties include LGBTQ, gender, life transitions, disabilities, and career options. I earned a BA in psychology and an MSW in social work from Tulane University. I am licensed in Louisiana, MA, and New York. I look forward to hearing from you and beginning our work together.

Does everything look "just fine", and no one gets how anxious, frustrated and checked out you feel in your studies, work or relationships? You’ve tried everything you can to fix things. Trauma, depression, pain, family and social pressure, anxiety, relationship issues; all these things can get you stuck in a cycle of unhappiness. These experiences may even have you seeking relief through overusing substances. You want someone to actually help you. You know that despite it being hard, you're willing to give this a try. I am dedicated to helping you improve your life, not just cope with it. You can feel connected, whole, energized and fulfilled, and I am here to help you. I provide individual therapy, couples therapy, as well as Somatic coaching services. I opened my private practice after working for 5 years with college students at Syracuse University's Counseling Center. Over my 10 years of counseling experience, I have helped people go from fixity to flow, from stuckness to strength. I specialize in Somatic Experiencing, relational psychodynamic therapy and attachment work. My approach helps you use your nervous system's natural resources and strengths, building you up to address the root of issues getting in the way of your peace, fulfillment and satisfaction. I bring all my life's experience as a counselor, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, martial artist and coach to my clients. I want to provide you with a helping relationship where you can be deeply heard, seen, and feel safe to explore yourself; to help you open up possibilities in your life that felt unreachable before. I welcome you to reach out.

Welcome! You made it through the first hurdle by asking for help. It's hard to admit, even to yourself, that this time of your life is not easy. It's OK to ask for help. No judgement. This is a safe place. Many of my patients struggle with anxiety, depression or alcohol/drug issues. And many of them get better. Have hope.

Are you a college student struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues? Are you a therapist or healthcare provider seeking support to navigate the effects of trauma? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) and Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), I specialize in providing compassionate counseling services to young adults, professionals, and individuals experiencing the effects of trauma. My practice is designed specifically to support college students in navigating the unique challenges they face during this transitional time in their lives. I also work closely with therapists and healthcare providers to support their well-being and help them develop effective coping strategies. With extensive experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and childhood trauma, I provide trauma-informed care to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. With a warm and non-judgmental approach, I provide individualized care to help you build resilience, cultivate self-awareness, and thrive both academically and personally.

Let's work together to create a brighter future for you.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist and Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. For me, being a physician is more than a profession—it is a vocation to help indviduals flourish. My practice is devoted to students and young adults seeking thoughtful, individualized psychiatric care that extends beyond symptom relief. I provide comprehensive evaluations that consider medical, nutritional, lifestyle, and psychological factors—including laboratory testing when clinically appropriate—to identify the contributors to emotional and cognitive health. I also specialize in evidence-based de-prescribing for patients who wish to reduce or discontinue psychiatric medications for anxiety, attention difficulties, or substance use disorders. My approach is guided by precision, humility, and restraint: using the least intensive intervention necessary while drawing upon the full breadth of evidence-based medicine. Depending on each patient's needs and goals, I integrate psychotherapy, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, exercise, targeted supplementation, and, when appropriate, carefully selected medications into a personalized treatment plan. In addition to my clinical work, I have presented internationally on psychiatric deprescribing and medical ethics. My work has been recognized with awards from the American Psychiatric Association, the International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, the American Psychoanalytic Association, and other leading professional organizations. I am the Founder & Medical Director of Verigrate Health. I am licensed to serve patients in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Lousiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.

Welcome! I'm Krystal Haas, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). You may see letters next to the names you find on your search, like LCSW, PsyD, or LMHC, and so on. Looking for a therapist can be a daunting and confusing task, so first I'd like to congratulate you on taking your first step. I'm hoping I can make it a little easier by sharing about myself and how I may be able to help you reach your goals. In my case, as an LMHC, my master's degree education was geared specifically to counseling and learning all of the skills necessary to work directly with people. I've been working for about 5 years now as a clinician, and started my private practice at the end of 2022 - one of the best decisions I've ever made! I work with a variety of ages including kids, teens, and young adults, and I often work with individuals who are struggling with the transition to college and/or adulthood. If you've been experiencing anxiety, depression, changes in mood, identity exploration, stress, or problems with "adulting", then we may be a good match! I use methods like CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and eclectic methods, but that may all sound like gibberish. Essentially, I take an educational and supportive approach by listening to your concerns and needs, and then working with you to establish a way to reach your goals. Even if we don't have all the answers right away, it can help to know you have someone on your team to listen. If this sounds up your alley, you're more than welcome to reach out by phone or email to schedule a free 15 minute consultation. I hope to connect, and wish you best of luck on your search!

Each person has a unique experience and healing requires an individualized plan. Healing occurs through a combination of multiple different sources.
