Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Hello! I’m Kristin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience in providing compassionate, client-centered care. I’m dedicated to supporting individuals through life's challenges and helping them achieve personal growth and emotional well-being. I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. I believe that every individual has the strength to overcome challenges, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. Whether you’re facing a specific issue or seeking ongoing guidance, I’m committed to providing you with the tools and support you need to thrive.

Life can be hard. Whether it is processing trauma or coping with stressful life situations, life can present us with many challenges. I am here to provide empathy, support, and guidance to find your inner strength and face all of life's challenges. I will collaborate with you to explore what you need to live your best life possible. Since each person comes to therapy for different reasons, my person-centered approach allows me to create a unique individual plan for treatment. I offer traditional talk therapy, employing a variety of interventions. Some of the therapeutic models I follow include, cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, and psychodynamic theory. I believe the relationship between the client and the therapist is most important to therapy. Therefore I strive to create a warm, empathetic, non-judgmental space where people feel comfortable and safe. I am here for you, to meet you where you are at, and help you figure out what you need. I look forward to being part of your journey to your best life.

Hello! My name is Abigayle Bennett, but you can call me Abi. I am in my second year of my Master’s of Social Work at Binghamton University and hold an Associate’s in Human Services and a Bachelor’s in Psychology with a minor in Education. I have been working in children’s and family services for the majority of my career, and hope to eventually open a Child and Family Development Center and offer an inclusive space for families to seek tools and resources to improve their family’s mental well-being. I specialize in areas such as anxiety, mood disorders, parenting and family issues, relationships, self-esteem, self-harm, lgbtq+ youth, and domestic/sexual abuse. I strive to create a laid-back, open, and approachable environment in our sessions. I understand that starting therapy can be daunting, but I aim to make our therapeutic relationship as comfortable and supportive as possible. My goal is to be someone you feel at ease talking to so that you can freely share and explore your thoughts and feelings. I know how intimidating it can be to bare your soul to a stranger, so I want to work together to build a strong therapeutic relationship so we can tackle your needs as a team. I firmly believe that mental health has to start from a sort of ground-up perspective. In order to control your feelings, emotions, and reactions, you have to understand them and be able to respond to them using tools that meet you where you’re at. I practice primarily using CBT, DBT, mindfulness, attachment theory, and family systems theory. In our sessions, we will use an eclectic mix of various therapeutic frameworks to best meet your needs. In session, this may look like guided meditations, processing past traumas, exploring family dynamics, and cognitive reprogramming techniques. By utilizing a mix of modalities, we can work together to find ways to best respond to the difficulties and struggles you may be facing, and hopefully overall improve your quality of life.

Although I am a licensed therapist with 30+ years mental health experience, my counseling practice is designed for people looking for a different approach, rather than traditional therapy. I offer life mentoring, which is a mix of counseling, coaching, psychotherapy, spirituality, and the expressive arts. I specialize in helping people with anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I help clients process their past, learn how to live more fully in the present, and carve a path toward a dynamic, enjoyable future. Life mentoring is a wisdom tradition that leads to life transformation. My practice is very casual and easy-going, nothing clinical. I teach the practices outlined in my book: “The Living Stress Free Bible: 20 Techniques to Make Your Life Less Stressful.” I send summaries of each session to each client, with my insights and suggested resources/homework. Schedule a session with me in our peaceful office space located in Rochester’s Upper East End, or on Zoom. I would love to help you on your personal journey toward happiness and inner peace. Pricing is based on duration of the session. Insurance is not accepted.

It is not uncommon to feel "trapped" in your own skin and feel out of control. This feeling overflows & disrupts our relationships, work/school, sleep, diet, exercise, finances & life goals. Desperation can cause us to reach for temporary solutions like fad diets, overworking, food restriction, over using substances & unhealthy relationships. You aren't meant to be at war with yourself everyday. Within therapy we will work on managing symptoms, finding the roots of your pain and healing where they originated using "parts" work & memory reconsolidation. I provide a safe place for you to be truly "heard" which is often underestimated. I specialize in disordered eating/body image issues using a HAES (Health at Every Size) approach. I work with people of all sizes as disordered eating does not discriminant. Other areas of specialty include grief, ADHD, depression, mood disorders, relationship issues, anxiety, life changes and hormonal issues. It's common for these struggles to overlap. I understand how difficult it can be finding the "right" therapist. I believe in the power of human connection to be a strong component of therapy. I am humbled everyday by the trust my clients put in me to help them succeed. I offer a free phone consultation to answer any questions you may have which can be scheduled via email. Thank you for your time!

Are you someone who feels overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or relationship challenges and want a safe space to be heard? You may be struggling with self-esteem, managing emotions, or navigating life transitions. My goal is to help you build coping skills, gain clarity, and feel more confident in yourself. Above all, I want to support you in creating meaningful changes so you can feel balanced, connected, and resilient in daily life. I help people who feel stressed, stuck, or overwhelmed find healthier ways to cope and move forward. Together, we’ll build tools that fit your life—whether that’s easing anxiety, improving self-esteem, or navigating life changes—so you can feel more confident, balanced, and supported. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can share your story, feel understood, and work at your own pace. If you’re ready to start your journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

I graduated from UMass Medical school and was trained in adult psychiatry at Cambridge Health Alliance, a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital. Prior to going to medical school I received a Masters in Teaching from Boston University and worked as a teacher. This unique background affects my approach to psychiatry. I believe that a good psychiatrist should work with you to help you learn about yourself and your mental health. I am trained in a variety of therapeutic styles including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), psychodynamic therapy, supportive therapy, and Gottman style couples/relationship therapy. During my time at CHA I worked extensively with the Gender and Sexuality Clinic to serve patients of diverse sexual and gender identities. I also co-lead a group therapy for individuals in polyamorous and non-monogamous relationships. I have taught at the American Psychiatric Association’s specialized rotation for HIV Psychiatry, including lectures on how to provide effective telepsychiatry, and I have presented at a national meeting on teaching providers how to better work with patients to prescribe medications. I am a licensed physician in Massachusetts, New York, and California. I offer in person appointments in Somerville, MA as well as secure telehealth appointments to those residing in Massachusetts, New York, and California. In addition to medication management I offer individual and relationship/couples therapy.

I offer virtual therapy in a supportive space where you can share your experiences and develop new skills. Whether you’re working through trauma, anxiety, or life’s everyday stressors I’m here to listen, support, and help you grow.

Your mental health matters. At Vita Health, we believe college students should have easy access to confidential, virtual, and personalized treatment options — so they get the most out of the collegiate experience. We’ll connect you with a licensed mental health care provider within days (not weeks). You can schedule virtual appointments in the evening or even on the weekends. And your therapist will develop a treatment plan just for you, supported by scientific evidence. We specialize in caring for patients with suicidal thoughts. No matter what difficulties you might be facing…you’re not alone. We’re here to help. Please contact us to connect with one of our care coordinators and learn more. *Some services and insurance plans accepted may vary by state.

Never thought you'd find yourself looking for a therapist, or had a disappointing therapy experience before? Much of the success of treatment depends on finding someone whom you can trust, who is as invested in seeing you make progress as you are. I have a solid track record working with children, adolescents, adults and families to create change in their lives...even when situations feel hopeless. I use an integrative approach that draws from relational, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and systems modalities. I am a trained drama therapist and play therapist, and use these skills when they help to support the treatment process. I offer individual, group, and family therapy. I am adjunct faculty at NYU and Lesley University, former supervisor at a residential treatment center, and the author of numerous articles and four books on trauma, child/adolescent treatment, and working with boys.

Hi there! I provide a warm yet challenging relationship to support you in becoming stronger, calmer, and more clear about who you are. I use mindfulness, body awareness, and curiosity to help you develop lifelong skills.

Life is about transitions! I enjoy working with clients who are dealing with adjustment to college, women’s issues, grief, body image, trauma, aging parents, chronic pain, depression and anxiety. I work within a feminist lens, using a health at every size and trauma-informed approach. I’m happy to do a free consultation with you so that you get to ask any questions and can see if I may be a good match for you.

We don't have to struggle to be who we are, we just have to remove the blocks that inhibit us. We experience these blocks through displaced emotions such as fear, stress, worry, anxiety, depression, anger, hopelessness and loneliness, to name a few. My intention is to guide you through a process of awakening to who you truly are so that you may begin to live life with a sense of aliveness, trust, purpose and peace of mind.
