I’m a good fit for students who get trapped in their head—overthinking everything, replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or feeling like they can’t relax unless everything is “handled.” You might be high-achieving, but constantly stressed, exhausted, or scared of messing up. Sometimes that turns into procrastination, avoidance, or feeling numb. In therapy, we’ll focus on helping you calm the mental noise, handle stress more effectively, and build confidence in your choices—so school and life don’t feel like a constant emergency.

Stress, anxiety, social isolation and depression lead many college age students into therapy. Many times these problems are rooted in low self-esteem. Perfectionism leads to procrastination which often times can lead to depression. Utilizing different modalities I can help you work on these life stressors so you can lead a productive and better life. I will give you the tools to work with.

Shirley, NY

Art therapy is for the individual who has difficulty verbalizing what they are going through. Creating art helps the person work through the trauma, anxiety, depression etc. One does NOT need to have any art experience knowledge or talent! Only an open mind to exploring their feelings and emotions through a creative lens!

Hi there! I'm so glad you found my page. I look forward to helping you navigate whatever might currently be keeping you from feeling fulfilled. As a neurodivergent, queer identified therapist, I find myself working best with those who are developing greater attunement with their own identity. Together with my clients, I use a person-centered, strength-based approach to identify and practice coping skills and expand emotional awareness and resilience. Life is stressful and full of difficult experiences, and through art therapy directives as well as talk therapy techniques, I partner with my clients to help them identify what it is that they would like to change and make a plan of action. Reaching out for support is a powerful first step! Whatever it is you need, I look forward to partnering with you in support and compassion.

My practice focuses on helping my clients identify and live according to their values. I meet my clients where they are at with empathy and acceptance, and together we explore their feelings, thoughts, strengths, and needs. I practice using a queer and trans-affirming, anti-racist, anti-ableist, trauma-informed lens. I tailor my sessions to meet the needs of each client, and I am also a certified Therapeutic Game Master who enjoys utilizing role play and games in therapy with adolescents and adults to practice skills for decision making, frustration tolerance, and managing conflict. I wear a mask at all in-person appointments and encourage my clients to wear one, as well.

Kenmore, NY

Life is stressful and distracting enough without putting others' needs above your own. But that’s what we tend to do! As a result, we are left feeling drained. Relationships are complicated – whether it be with yourself or others. Throughout our lifetime relationships are often the most neglected and yet one of the most important. It is through the relationship with yourself and others that personal growth and change develops. This requires looking inward to discover what you need, want, and desire.

Morris Cognitive Behavioral Consulting, LLC
Group practice
Morristown, NJ

It is the mission of Morris Cognitive Behavioral Consulting to meet clients where they are when they enter treatment and help them come to a place of radical acceptance of their current circumstances. Dr. Morris has an interactive, direct style that, at times, feels more like coaching than traditional psychotherapy. She focuses on enhancing a client’s motivation, as well as helping them find the balance between acceptance and change. Their goal is to locate the “gray area” between extremes in thinking, emotions, and behavior. It is these extremes, which lead to common problems in living, relationship difficulties, or severe mental and behavioral symptoms. Dr. Morris believes in doing more than helping individuals reduce troubling symptoms; she wants to help clients break free from ineffective behavioral patterns and, more importantly, truly heal. She is committed to teaching clients how to stop emotions from controlling their lives. She strives to help clients overcome barriers that keep them stuck in negative behaviors, life patterns, or relationships that hinder their ability to reach their desired goals and live fully. Dr. Morris channels her unrelenting energy, straightforward style, and radical genuineness to help shift clients into resolving these barriers and ineffective patterns. She hopes to enable clients to become more skillful in their everyday experience so they can be more effective at reaching their goals while, ultimately, creating lives worth living. Dr. Morris specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions, strength-based approaches that focus specifically on practical coping skill acquisition, which are uniquely tailored to each client's individual goals. She offers a range of evidence-based therapy, group, and consulting services to children, adolescents, adults, families, schools, and organizations​.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Cherry Hill Township, NJ

Hi, I’m Liz! I’m a Licensed therapist (LCSW) and Certified Clinical Sports Social Worker - and founder of MENTL.SESH. I help people accomplish their goals, reconnect with their sense of self, boost confidence, and improve mental fitness by meeting them where they are at in their mental health journeys. Working with athletes, high performers and creatives to manage anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and challenging life situations are my areas of specialty. Therapy should feel fulfilling and the last thing I want for my clients is for therapy to feel like a chore. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for working toward and achieving therapeutic goals, so I encourage you to feel all the feels, speak your mind, and be yourself in sessions. Therapy with me is a collaborative process and I want any clients who work with me to feel that they are heard and supported. Throughout the therapy process, we will explore both the highs and lows, whether that be through identifying thought patterns, behavioral patterns, current and past experiences, or self-care and coping skills. I'm a firm believer that healing is not linear and acknowledging the good is equally important to living your best life. I aim to have a down-to-earth, strengths-based & integrative approach and will most definitely throw in a few sports and pop culture references, thinking outside of the box, and use humor when appropriate. I received my Master’s in Social Work degree from NYU and have advanced training in, Sports Social Work interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Trauma Focused -Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, trauma-informed practice, Functional Family therapy, and more.

I provide a safe, supportive environment in which people can address difficult feelings and thoughts in order to increase self-awareness, facilitate change, and create greater ease and fulfillment in their lives. As a licensed psychologist with over 20 years in clinical practice, I have extensive training in a wide range of therapeutic modalities and draw from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and mindfulness-baed approaches. My office is in easy walking distance from the Dartmouth campus.

Hi! I'm Bernadette and I am a licensed clinical social worker and I received my MSW from Columbia University. I use a variety of clinical modalities rooted in CBT, EMDR, motivational interviewing and problem solving therapy. I have experience in working with issues related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, loss and grief, life transitions, interpersonal conflict, poverty, sexuality and gender, and stress management. My approach to therapy is guided by the firm belief that the strength of the therapist-client relationship is the most important element of successful treatment. Together, we will navigate the obstacles through a foundation of trust, transparency and maybe even some humor. I enjoy working with motivated clients who are seeking to make positive changes in their lives and I am committed to making this process as supportive as possible. I am committed to decreasing the barriers to mental health services and due to this, my practice is 100% virtual. Having this option allows us to build a strong therapeutic relationship where we are actively working on both short and long terms goals each time we meet. I will offer you real feedback rather than silent nods!
