Therapists for college students near 10003

I am a New York State licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice, with an office in Mamaroneck, NY. During the covid pandemic, I am working with all clients using tele-health. I have had extensive training in Mindfulness, Acceptance & Compassion Based Therapies (aka 3rd Wave Therapy) From my diverse experiences I have learned that: The way you speak to yourself matters. Negative self talk can be detrimental and it can be changed. Shame is a major contributor of emotional suffering and mental illness. This emotion thrives in secrecy. Compassion is a reliable way of improving your relationships, with yourself and others. Life is hard, and many times unfair. Knowing what you need, and developing the skills to support those needs, helps make the best out of life's difficult situations.

Hi! Are you struggling with self-esteem, anxiety or stress, relationship issues, or just need someone to vent to? You don’t have to go through it alone. College can be a stressful time already, so having the right therapist to help you through this period of your life can make all the difference. I take a down to earth approach to therapy, meeting you where you’re at. Together we can figure out the best course or action for you to reach your goals and hopefully even make therapy enjoyable!

Hi! I have over 15 years of practice providing therapeutic and habilitative supports to people with different needs and have had the honor of providing psychotherapy to children, adults and families over the last 8 years. I came to the mental health field through my work with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). I found that people can thrive when linked with the right supports, including service professionals who are dedicated, caring, empathic and invested. I find joy in supporting a person to find out what's getting them "stuck" and learning how to get un-stuck. This includes exploring ways to connect with other people in their lives, finding ways to increase self-compassion and engage in active problem solving, by finding creative and interesting solutions. This includes helping people try new things, while acknowledging that failure can happen (and often does!) that serves as an opportunity for continued growth and is part of the learning process.

I provide relational, culturally responsive therapy that centers your lived experiences and honors the ways your relationships, history, and identity shape who you are today. I approach therapy as a collaborative space where we can slow down, reflect, and better understand patterns that may be contributing to distress or disconnection. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic and relational cultural therapy. This means I pay close attention to how past and present relationships influence emotions, behaviors, and self-understanding, and how growth often happens through connection, authenticity, and mutual understanding. I also integrate trauma-informed and strengths-based

My specialty is ‘extreme stuckness’. My approach is intense, caring, tough, and free-flowing rather than structured. My therapy groups are full of challenging, brilliant, courageous people who seek depth and growth. All the therapists in our group practice are trained in a meta-approach called "Feedback Informed Treatment" which means that we track how things are going session-by-session to see if anything needs to change about our work together to help you get where you want to go.

Clients often come to therapy, initially, with symptoms of anxiety, significant stress, exhaustion, depression, anger, etc. I am here to listen while the Client talks through current and past issues that have led to the onset of these symptoms. The goal is 1) for me to provide education (about symptoms, causes, coping tools, wellness, communication, etc.), and 2) for the client to discover the answers they have inside of themselves and develop confidence in ones' self. I offer compassion and respect to all clients. Often, my clients are struggling with worries, anxiety and/or low confidence. I provide a space to speak through sensitive topics.
