Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Ms. Shilpa Shah, LMHC the Clinical Director and Founder of Woodrose Counseling. She is a bilingual licensed mental health counselor fluent in Gujarati and first generation South Asian American. Her experience working with adults from diverse backgrounds and age groups in community-based and outpatient settings informs her culturally sensitive approach to treatment. Ms. Shah believes that therapy is an opportunity to explore our struggles in the context of our past experiences and patterns while in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space and developing more effective ways of navigating them. Her philosophy is that therapy is a collaborative place for finding support in healing, developing self-awareness and working towards your goals. She utilizes an eclectic approach drawing from psychodynamic, person-centered, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Therapy is a collaborative process providing an opportunity to bring awareness to how past experiences are affecting current struggles. In our sessions together, we will work towards identifying your goals and meeting your needs while working on healing, developing self-awareness, and practicing self-compassion. I will provide a safe space for you to feel emotionally supported while also helping you challenge unhelpful patterns in order work towards change.

Are you feeling discontent with your life right now? Maybe stress is overwhelming you, you feel heartbroken, or you're doubting yourself? You're not alone. I specialize in treating clients that struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, and low self-esteem. You may be experiencing heartbreak, feelings of stress, sadness, negative thoughts about yourself, self-doubt, and/or a lack of confidence in your abilities. As a bilingual therapist, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you identify unhelpful thought patterns, promote self-awareness, emotional regulation, and help you focus on your strengths. I provide a safe space where you can openly express yourself free from judgment. Feeling overwhelmed can be tough. But you don't have to navigate this alone. Let's talk

My clients are often deep feelers, over thinkers, and high achievers such as students, clinicians, creatives, adoptees, BIPOC, and first generation individuals who are navigating identity, relationship dynamics, responsibilities, anxiety, depression, overwhelm, burnout, trauma, or systemic stressors. They are often masking or silencing parts of themselves to meet expectations. Many are seeking a space where they do not have to explain their identities or experiences, where they can feel heard and seen without judgment or fear. They want support, clarity, and autonomy to show up fully both in therapy and in their everyday lives. I offer unique understanding of intersectionality rooted in lived experience and aim to provide culturally and trauma-informed care. I've supported youth and families in schools, camps, and community centers facing trauma, crisis, abuse, neglect, grief, loss, immigration issues, displacement, and second language challenges for over a decade. I've trained clinicians, staff, and supervised interns in crisis intervention, SEL, and case management. With a long-standing dedication to human development, attachment theory, and a gathered knowledge of specific cases, treatments, and approaches, I am committed to client-centered care tailored to each individual's needs. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to carry so much while trying to hold it all together. I offer a compassionate, supportive space where your full self, voice, and unique form of expression are honored. If you’re looking for a space to make sense of things in your own way, you’re welcome to connect with me and discover what therapy can mean for you. I offer free 15-minute consultations, feel free to reach out and connect further via email or my official website.

Do you find yourself stuck in patterns of procrastination and perfectionism, or at the mercy to your own self critic? Does it feel like you get caught up in moving away from negative experiences instead of moving towards meaningful ones?

As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in treating anxiety-related issues including generalized anxiety, OCD, panic, social anxiety, and phobias. I also help my patients develop effective tools to manage stress, procrastination, perfectionism, problematic eating. I use evidence-based approaches, thoughtfully employed to match your needs, strengths, and temperament. I employ a warm, empathetic, and collaborative approach, and together we’ll work to approach your struggles with curiosity and empowerment.

You built a life and career by being the reliable one. The strong and independent one. The high-performer. Now you wake up tired, restless, and questioning who you are beneath the grind. I work with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and Adult Children of Immigrants navigating burnout, complex trauma, perfectionism, anxious stress, and identity conflict who feel lost in this stage of life and want to reconnect with themselves. Clients often say they are overwhelmed, stuck in overthinking, shutting down in relationships, or carrying stress in their body. Through trauma focused therapy, we explore the parts of you shaped by survival, family expectations, culture, and attachment. I integrate somatic work, IFS, CBT, and liberation based therapy to build awareness, emotional inner balance, and boundaries that reflect your values. As a 1st generation Haitian and Black therapist I know reaching out can feel loaded when you are used to handling everything alone. You do not have to justify needing support. I offer a 20 minute phone or video consultation to explore fit and help you take a steady first step toward change.

My approach is always about meeting people exactly where they are.
