Therapists for college students near New York University

Life can be very unpredictable and present us with significant challenges and emotional pain. These circumstances can impact our daily functioning and cause relational conflicts. With an empathetic ear, I will provide you with a safe and supportive space to begin your journey to emotional healing and growth. My therapeutic approach is to provide a warm, culturally sensitive and empathic space where you can feel safe and supported as you work to achieve your goals of growth and healing. Utilizing a variety of therapeutic modalities including but not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strength-Based, Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy I work to examine the way in which your thinking patterns impact your behaviors so that you can develop coping strategies and affect change. I am licensed clinical social worker in New Jersey and New Yotrk. I obtained my Master of Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania and am the owner of Graceful Mind Counseling Services LLC. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, women's issues, adjustment, career and academic stressors, and self esteem.

I help people alleviate uncomfortable feelings, gain insight, and increase coping skills to overcome stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions (such as relocation, school, career transitions). Part of being human means that you will struggle at some point with unproductive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, or unexpectedly have to manage something life throws your way. People I work with are motivated to develop skills to increase their self-confidence, communication, decision making and boundary setting skills. As well as optimize their emotional health/ well-being and are seeking tools to assist them in the process. I take an active and collaborative approach to help create tangible strategies to deal more effectively in the moment with difficult experiences and feelings. In addition to helping people alleviate current pain points, I assist in obtaining skills to develop a wellness practice that will be beneficial beyond sessions. My approach is person-centered and informed by evidence-based practices, including Lifestyle Medicine (nutrition, physical activity, sleep hygiene, and stress management), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Practice and Solution Focused Therapy. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling empowered and in control of their life.

College can intensify pressure to succeed, make the “right” choices, and hold it all together, often alongside anxiety, perfectionism, people pleasing, relationship issues, or concerns about food, body image, or control. I work with college students and young adults who appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of themselves on the inside. Together, we slow things down, identify patterns that keep you stuck, and build insight and skills that support real, lasting change. My approach is collaborative, thoughtful, and tailored to you as a whole person, not a set of symptoms. I hold the CEDS-C credential, the highest certification in eating disorder treatment, and support students whose anxiety or perfectionism shows up around food, body image, or self-worth. Therapy can be a space to pause, feel understood, and reconnect with what matters most, without having to pretend you’re fine or push through alone.

Welcome to​ our Practice! You deserve to live a happier and healthier life. Together, we can begin to understand your situation, and then create a plan that will address the issues that are causing you stress.

Therapy is a powerful tool utilized to help resolve the problems you are experiencing. It strengthens our coping tools and our sense of self. We specialize in treating anxiety, depression, compulsions/addictions, relationship issues, self-esteem, and developing action plans to address goal setting.

I'm a zen practicing therapist+musician who loves working with people on their journeys to healthier relationships and becoming their most authentic selves. I was raised fundamentalist and spent my childhood learning fire and brimstone theology and memorizing verses from the King James Bible. Needless to say I chose to leave the "sinners in the hands of an angry God" mentality behind when I grew up. The truth is, being hard on ourselves doesn't help us or anyone else. But compassion, love, acceptance and presence connect us to who we really are, and who we can become. Along the journey, I've played a lot of music (with friends, in bands) and become a therapist. I wrote an album while in grad school and took a year off after grad school to play shows and work at a record store. I believe it's OK to have multiple passions, to want to do a lot of things, to use your voice, and to take your time figuring it all out. In our work together, I want to help you tap into your own creativity and inner wisdom while also drawing from evidence-based modalities to help you live a purposeful life, deepen your relationships, and reach your goals as a couple or as an individual. LGBTQI affirming. Puedo hablar contigo un poco de español, pero no puedo hablar con fluencia.

Everyone can benefit from evidence-based therapy skills to help manage stress, mood and life's tougher moments. I use an active therapeutic approach to assist you in both exploring challenges and identifying/encouraging things are that going well. Reaching out to a therapist is the start of a brave and rewarding journey. Feel free to contact me for a free phone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!

Life can feel overwhelming when you are trying to manage school, work, relationships, family, and the expectations you place on yourself—all while wondering if you are doing enough or getting it “right.” If you find yourself overthinking, struggling with self-doubt or imposter syndrome, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, having difficulty setting boundaries, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can provide a space to slow down, make sense of what you are experiencing, and develop tools that actually fit your life. I work primarily with young adults and professionals who are navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem, trauma, and other challenges that can affect how they feel, think, and function day to day. I also work with individuals managing ADHD and concerns related to substance use. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard and understood while also having the opportunity to learn skills and make meaningful changes. Rather than telling you what you “should” do, I work with you to understand what is getting in the way and identify realistic steps toward the life you want. Together, we can explore your strengths, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving you, better understand your triggers, and develop healthier ways of coping with stress and difficult emotions. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients build greater awareness, confidence, and practical skills they can use outside of therapy. You do not have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You simply need to be willing to take the first step.

Does the thought of relaxing stress you out and make you feel guilty for wanting to do so? Do you spend your free time thinking about how you need to get more done? Does it feel like your responsibilities between school and personal life feel never ending? I know asking for help can feel like you’ve “failed” at life, but you realize nothing is working and it’s time to see some change. You don’t know how you can adapt to all these changes. My name is Collette, and I help anxious high achievers channel their natural problem solving skills and strengths so that you can make more confident decisions, stop feeling bad for putting you first and start spending more time on the things that matter most to you. If you’re ready to stop placing your worth on what you can do for others and start enjoying a more fulfilled life, reach out today and see if I am the right fit for you. During our free 15 minute chat, we discuss what’s been going on to see how I can best help you and we talk next steps.

I am a psychologist with over twenty years of experience providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults from a range of backgrounds. I assist individuals with issues related to family, work and peer relationships, academic and professional development, parenting, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, postpartum adjustment and life transitions. I work with individuals to increase their understanding of themselves within the context of their unique experiences. I help individuals achieve a new perspective, personal growth and permanent change. Treatment is long-term or short-term, and is both exploratory and solution based. My approach is collaborative and integrates primarily psychodynamic methods with some aspects of cognitive-behavioral therapy. I received a Certificate in Psychoanalysis from William Alanson White Institute and provide psychoanalysis. I am an active listener who is warm, empathic and attuned to each individual's therapeutic needs and goals. I enjoy attending professional workshops and conferences to enhance my practice.

Living with OCD or anxiety can be exhausting. The constant doubt, intrusive thoughts, avoidance and compulsions can make everyday life feel overwhelming— like it's running your life instead of you. I specialize in helping adults break free from OCD, perfectionism, and anxiety disorders. I understand how isolating these struggles can feel, and I provide a compassionate, collaborative space where you can feel understood while learning practical tools to understand anxiety and move toward what truly matters to you. If you're struggling with OCD, we’ll use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment for OCD. Together we'll build a concrete treatment plan, and with steady support, you’ll gradually face fears, and reduce compulsions, building confidence and learning that you can handle uncertainty without relying on rituals. To address anxiety and perfectionism, I integrate CBT and ACT techniques, so you can develop a healthier mindset and respond to difficult thoughts with more flexibility and self-compassion. Therapy is active and goal-oriented, but always grounded in warmth and respect. I’d love to support you in this process.
