Therapy for College Students in NY

As a college student, you may be facing a range of stressors that can impact your mental health and well-being, and I am here to support you in navigating those challenges.

​

In therapy, we will work together to identify and explore the emotional and psychological issues that may be affecting your personal and academic life. Some of the issues that may come up in therapy include:

​

• Anxiety and stress: College can be a time of high stress and anxiety, whether it be related to academic performance, social pressures, or the uncertainty of the future. We will work on developing healthy coping mechanisms to manage these stressors and reduce anxiety.

• Depression and mood disorders: College students may also struggle with mood disorders such as depression, which can have a significant impact on their academic and personal life. We will work on identifying the symptoms of depression and developing strategies to manage and reduce these symptoms.

• Identity exploration: College is a time of significant identity exploration, as students navigate new experiences and relationships. We will work on exploring your personal identity and values, while also addressing any challenges related to self-esteem and self-worth.

• Relationship issues: College students may also face challenges related to maintaining relationships, whether it be romantic or platonic. We will work on developing healthy communication skills and exploring any underlying emotional issues that may be impacting your relationships.

• Academic performance: College can be a time of high academic pressure, which can lead to stress, anxiety, and burnout. We will work on developing strategies to manage academic workload and deadlines, while also prioritizing your mental health and well-being.

In therapy, we will use a range of approaches that are tailored to your specific needs and goals. Some of the approaches we may use include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which can help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, and interpersonal therapy (IPT), which can help you develop healthy communication skills and address relationship issues.

I understand that college can be a challenging and overwhelming time, and I want to help you navigate these challenges while prioritizing your mental health and well-being.
