Therapists for college students near New York, NY

*Our practice is now accepting new students for individual counseling* Much of our suffering is stored throughout our body, leaving us with a racing mind and feelings of stress, anxiety, depression. By approaching healing through a lens that incorporates the whole-body, we will work together so that you can heal fully and sustainably. I specialize in working with individuals faced with persistent anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. Many of these symptoms will manifest in relationship issues, difficulty sleeping, or poor motivation. Together we will explore the root causes that perpetuate your suffering and develop strategies so that you can lead a more fulfilling and joyful life. I am a clinical social worker, yoga & mindfulness teacher. I blend my degree as a clinician along with training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Yoga Therapy to offer an integrative approach to treatment. I believe that in order to truly heal, we must honor our whole-body and mind working together. My mission is to uncover the most effective paths for guiding others in reducing suffering and increasing a sense of joy and fulfillment in everyday life. Professionally and personally, I have gathered experience, evidence, and strategies for enhancing life and uncovering “what it’s all about”. I wish to share this with you.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Buffalo Integrative Psychology, PLLC. I believe that every person has an innate ability to heal, change, and grow when provided with a safe and supportive environment. Together, one of our goals will be to increase your self-awareness, identify your current struggles, and explore what might be getting in the way of change. This will help us journey to a heightened understanding so you can take the necessary steps to live a more fulfilled life. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, I work to see, understand, and integrate all aspects of you, your environment, and your experiences to move toward healthy functioning. I often incorporate mindfulness into my work to help us get into touch with your experience in the here and now and to help you navigate difficult thoughts and emotions. As a therapist, I am warm, authentic, empathic, and curious. I understand just how hard it can be to start the process of therapy, and I will do everything I can to help you feel comfortable. I strive to be anti-racist, LGBTQ+ affirming, and overall culturally responsive and inclusive.

Working with a counselor can be anxiety provoking, so my focus is on helping you to feel at ease and create clear goals to make you feel better. I love to support clients in developing skills to manage emotions, build mindfulness in moving through pain, and find compassionate ways to heal. I have spent over 15 years facilitating individual and group services that center around grief, schema, dissociation, and complex trauma. I have been trained in solution focused therapy, ACT, DBT, and EMDR. My passion is helping others customize their healing journey and to take pleasure in every step on their path. It's rare that anyone wakes up overnight a different person. Rather it's through the beautiful process that we develop insight, wisdom, and happiness.

Life brings questions and changes that may at first feel uncomfortable, but can be a catalyst for growth with the proper environment and support. We all develop questions about life and choice and sometimes it helps to have an objective outlook to effectively make decisions. I would like to assist you on your journey through support and insight. My experience includes many varieties of mental and behavioral health difficulties, with a focus on overcoming barriers to improve individual functioning. Feel free to schedule an initial appointment with me I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for personality disorders, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depression. I also utilize mindfulness based therapies. I am available evenings and weekends so you don't have to schedule around your life!

Are you ready for change? What I love most about my work is seeing clients make meaningful strides toward feeling better—little by little, day by day. As an experienced anxiety therapist in Rochester and Pittsford NY I specialize in helping clients identify and change the negative thoughts and beliefs that impact their happiness and well-being. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we’ll work to transform those self-critical, anxious thoughts into more positive, empowering ones. This shift can be life-changing—whether it’s managing ANXIETY, overcoming DEPRESSION, tackling SOCIAL PHOBIAS, or working through TRAUMA. I’m here to help you make that shift and find relief.

Do you think about what kind of person you'd like to be, but feel uncertain, nervous, lost, or overwhelmed about how to make the change? College is an exciting time to explore your identity, learn how to build meaningful relationships, and to find a purposeful career. If you're hoping to feel more confident in who you are, feel more certain about your direction in life and live up to your potential, you've come to the right place. Dr. Grace specializes in asking these "big questions" in life. She marries the wisdom of Buddhist practices with the science of psychology to deepen clients' self-awareness and exploration, and uses a multiculturally sensitive lens to identify how our environments may have shaped our beliefs, motivations, and behaviours. Clients often say that sessions with Dr. Grace feel productive, with a balance between insight and action. Her presence is calming and non-judgmental, encouraging clients to maximize their growth. She is a MSU alumni, having previously worked at CAPS, and offers fully virtual services in both English and Mandarin. Evening hours available.

Hey there! College is a whole other world—fun, stressful, overwhelming, and everything in between. Maybe you’re juggling deadlines, relationships, family pressure, or just trying to figure out who the heck you are and what you actually want. If anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt are getting in the way of your happiness (or your grades), you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I help college students who feel stuck, anxious, or drained by people-pleasing and perfectionism. Together, we’ll work through the stress, heal old wounds, and build confidence so you can actually enjoy your life—not just push through it. My approach is supportive, down-to-earth, and tailored to you. Whether you need a space to vent, tools to handle stress, or a deeper dive into what’s holding you back, I’m here to help. If you’re ready to feel more in control of your life, let’s chat.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.

By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Hello, my name is Shannon and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with seven years experience in psychotherapy and eleven years experience in overall behavioral health. Life is filled with ups and downs, both internally—in our thoughts and emotions—and externally— in circumstances and interpersonal relationships. It can be very difficult to navigate all of these stressors day-to-day, nonetheless do the work to reflect and restore. I believe in the way of “through”, I am an ever bringer of validation and hope, and holding space for your overall wellness. In my practice, I have worked closely with adolescents, adults, older adults, and families and utilize various therapeutic approaches and techniques. My specialities include anxiety, mood disorders, addiction and recovery, emotion regulation, and trauma. I offer a person-centered, strengths-based approach in my practice tailored to each client. I honor and affirm all LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients and I align as a body liberation provider. I would love to support you and empower you on this journey through empathic listening, facilitated reflection, building coping skills, conflict resolution, and motivation to create time and space for your overall wellness.

Working with college students is an area of specialty for me, especially those struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression, ADHD, or difficulties adjusting to the social and/or academic aspects of college. If you're looking for an evidence-based approach from someone with a more casual therapeutic style, I may be the right fit.

Our primary focus is medication management for ADHD, anxiety and depression. Initial appointment can be booked online from our website or my email.

While changing behaviors and feelings is always tricky, it is never something that we need to face alone. I know that coming to therapy and making the commitment to show up for themselves every week requires strength from my clients. Therefore, I strive to help them get the most out of their experience. Together, we create a wellness plan specific to each individual (which I believe is the utmost priority. My passion for helping others shines through with authenticity and compassion. My clients find emotional fulfillment, success in relationships, and develop more confidence to grow.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over ten years of experience working with children, teens, young adults, and parents in medical and community settings. I have been in private practice for about three years. In my therapy practice, I work with teens and adults who are coping with anxiety, depression, and adjustment issues related to life transitions, illness, caregiving, grief and loss, relationships, and work/school challenges. My approach is integrative, compassionate, and collaborative, incorporating a wide range of modalities including psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy.

In the role of therapist, my initial priority is creating the safety and familiarity that is crucial to do real work together. I look at the therapeutic process as an opportunity to work with the person coming to me in need of support, and tackle their issues as a team. I bring a nonjudgmental, open-minded approach to my clients and emphasize the importance of clients feeling secure enough to say anything they need to in the space we curate together. My approach has an emphasis on self-compassion and becoming in tune with your emotions and body. In today’s world, it is easier than ever to become disconnected from your body and feelings. My hope is that we can work together to reintegrate your inner wisdom to your conscious level of awareness.

You don’t have to struggle with mental health issues alone. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with experience in co-occurring care, I support adults navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, mood instability, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anger management, life changes, and emotional overwhelm. I look forward to being your partner in care, leading you closer to the happy, healthy life you deserve. My goal is to help you develop healthy coping skills and deepen self-awareness through care that's tailored to you. I take a compassionate, non-judgmental, and collaborative approach designed to help you understand your emotional patterns, learn practical tools, and create meaningful, lasting change. When working together, you are empowered to achieve this change in an encouraging and supportive environment that uses evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychotherapy. I believe meaningful change begins with authentic therapeutic relationships, a belief that grew out of my own experience in therapy that taught me the value of a partner who empowers you to be your best self. By meeting patients where they are in my practice now, I partner with them in self-exploration and healing to support a purposeful and fulfilling life. To stay centered and balanced in my time outside the office, I enjoy exercising, yoga, and spending time with family and friends.
