Therapists for college students near 10003

This is a challenging time for all of us, but you are not alone. I am offering phone and video therapy sessions available throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and I am offering sliding scale sessions. I work to help increase your awareness of the emotional patterns you're living with in your day-to-day life. The more self-aware you become, the easier it is to identify what makes you happy and what doesn’t. As you grow in self-acceptance, you will find new ways of living your life. Reach out and let's see if we are a good fit.

I practice holistically integrating an evaluation of overall health and lifestyle into my recommendations for possible medication options. You can learn more about me and my approach by visiting my website, www.drsaraiya.com

I believe therapy means making you feel deeply known and accepted, and by creating a warm and secure bond opens the space for long-lasting, personal growth. I appreciate how some old habits you have picked up at an earlier point may no longer serve you now. The process of understanding yourself with compassion and learning new ways of being in the world isn't always easy, but I'll be with you every step of the way. Together we can find and solve the "stuck points" holding you back from living a full and meaningful life. I work with individual adults focusing on mood and personality issues. As your therapist, my goal is to help you live up to the best version of yourself. My approach centers on harnessing your unique strengths in building the bridge between where you are and where you want to be. I take an integrative approach that reflects my dual training in transference-based theory such as Schema and evidence-based theory such as CBT. Thus, my treatment balances the exploration of experiential life with actionable change.

Do you ever ask yourself why you react the way you do to certain situations? Are you feeling overwhelmed with everything that you are feeling? Do you feel like you have tried therapy before and nothing seems to be working? Do you feel hopeless and on the brink of giving up? I would like to tell you that not all hope is lost. If you are looking to find ways to address your concerns, find hope and meaning again, we are here to support you. Our approach with you is non-judgmental, empathic, strength-based, and collaborative. Our therapists foster a warm and safe environment in which you can share whatever is troubling you. Our unique approach focuses on utilizing Polyvagal Theory interlaced with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Trauma informed treatment, Mindfulness techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Crisis Management through a neurological lens. Our overall person-centered approach have left our clients feeling supported and filled with hope. We believe that you are the expert of your life and our therapists are there as a source of support. Together we can unpack your stressors and develop coping skills so you can enjoy life and have meaningful relationships. Congratulations on taking the first step and seeking therapy. Ceylonese Wellness Therapists are here to support and empower you in the direction you choose to go.

Are you the go-to person at school, at home, and with friends? You might even feel resentful sometimes - you do so much for others, but you're not getting that same care back from them. And that only makes you feel "selfish" and more guilty! Helping people break free from overworking & resentment is my passion. Many of my clients are people who have partners, friends, or family members living with alcoholism/substance use disorders, mental health concerns, and chronic health issues. You don't have to handle this alone, and you can feel more empowered, connected, and at peace in your life. I offer both psychotherapy and career coaching for my clients. We have room to explore how your past experiences have shaped you, examine the systemic barriers you are facing, build on your strengths and skills, and focus on specific action steps you can take to make changes in your life now. My style is warm, interactive, and practical, focused on helping you gain self-compassion & confidence. If you'd like to talk more, please email me to schedule a free phone consultation. I'd love to hear from you!

I am a New York State Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, New Mexico State Licensed Professional Art Therapist, and Nationally Board Certified Art Therapist, who offers talk therapy and art psychotherapy for adults seeking insight, personal growth and change--particularly after major life transition, grief, loss or trauma. These experiences may pertain to starting school, academic stressors, medical illness, injury, disability, relationships, loss of loved ones, job loss or instability, relocation, and certainly much more. In our sessions together we can explore issues that come up around the extreme shifts in how you know how to be in the world, your self expectations and sense of identity, feelings of confusion, and accompanying feelings of distress. We will gently address your stressors and any feelings of misunderstanding, alienation or isolation in order to ultimately foster integration, personal advocacy, individuation, and renewed inspiration for your next path forward. I will encourage you to access creative imagination through a holistic, psychodynamic, relational, transpersonal, social action, and anti-oppressive lens. This means that we will engage in deep processing discussion--alongside art, creative expression, guided visualization, mindfulness and some somatic therapy, including the option of Reiki--to help us learn more about your needs, barriers, and goals in the present and how to pivot with insight from the past. We will particularly look at the intersection of your individual mindset, conscious awareness, unconscious impulses, and psyche with the events and lived experiences you have been met with in the groups you have belonged to and the communities around you. We will also consider how each of us impacts those individuals and communities around us, and acknowledge how as we make positive change, those reverberations can aid our community in greater compassion, growth, and improvement for many others in big and small ways. You deserve to recognize, explore, nurture, and be reminded of your natural strength, resiliency, and capacity for insight, growth, and joy! While therapy may challenge you to make sense in new ways of past and current conflict, crisis, or loss, our work together will seek access to a state of calm within, and the wisdom which may be created from each and any situation: all with motivation, inspiration, acceptance, choice, and hope. Together--let's make change, and find comfort during change.

*I can provide teletherapy if you are located in NYC or NYS* Going to college brings new life experiences and transitions with friends, family, partners, professors, and even with yourself. Navigating school, friends, social events, homework, clubs, teams, and getting enough sleep can be a lot to juggle. With all of these new changes, feelings of anxiety, depression, exhaustion, identity exploration, frustration, loneliness, and more are normal to have. As an LGBTQA+ affirming therapist, I have a deep commitment and passion for creating safe therapeutic spaces with individuals & couples from diverse backgrounds and identities. I support clients in diving deep into understanding the challenges they are facing, exploring pathways forward, while imagining and creating a life where they are not only surviving but thriving. By building a foundation of self-awareness and self-compassion, my clients are able to forge strong relationships with themselves and others, promoting positive mental health and resilience.
