Therapists for college students near New York, NY
I help my clients understand how their beliefs (about themselves and others) affect their decisions and how their decisions affect their lives, while also exploring whether the beliefs are more so based on exaggerated fears stemming from past heartaches and trauma or realistic self-conceptions. Additionally, we work on reducing bad habits. This approach is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. And, I specialize in a form of CBT called Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), used to treat OCD.

I am a humanistic and relational therapist that is passionate about the power of human connection and strongly values the healing properties of the therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a warm and safe space where individuals can feel safe to explore difficult topics, believing that this is the first and most important step in the healing process. I recognize that the human experience is often deeply complex and painful, yet has the potential to be beautiful and fulfilling as well. My goal in working with people is to walk alongside them and help them to better understand themselves, gain insight, work through the more painful moments of the past, and discover their own capability to cope with and grow through life’s hardships. My approach to therapy is holistic, exploring the many components and intersecting areas of a person’s life. Additionally, I work to tailor each therapeutic experience to the individual, accounting for the unique needs of each person. I have experience working with trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, identity issues, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I love utilizing humor, creativity, and mindfulness in session, as I believe tapping into these elements can be incredibly healing.

Are you unmotivated by everyday tasks and struggle to find where you belong in your social group? When you look in the mirror, do negative thoughts such as “I’m not enough” or “I feel hopeless” roam inside your brain? Do you find yourself freezing up in social situations, wishing you knew how to react? In a society plagued by institutional racism, gender inequalities, and generational differences, it is common to feel disheartened, anxious, and angry at ourselves and the world around us. By reaching out and prioritizing self-care, we can create a safe space to process difficult emotions and learn to manage your reactions.
College is intense, and brings up all kinds of challenges: in your classes, in figuring out who you are, in your social life. It all moves so quickly, and can be so overwhelming! Together, we can slow it down and process what's going on, as well as figure out what you want to change. I'm here for you! As a queer genderqueer drama therapist, I specialize in working with queer and trans folks, anti-zionists, and those interested in disrupting white supremacist and ableist systems of pathology. We will co-create a space that feels supportive enough for you to reconnect with your body, feel more confident in yourself, and maybe even have a laugh in the process. You might feel like you don't know where to begin. I've got you! You have lots of options, ranging from drama therapy to relational talk therapy- I love to collaboratively tailor these methods to support you in disrupting frustrating repetitive patterns, understanding and accepting yourself, and communicating more easily in your relationships. The world is hard. We're not going to pretend otherwise. But in the meantime, you deserve support. It's a brave move to reach out to a new therapist. I'm excited to meet you!

It's been an endless search for a therapist who really gets you. Someone who can dive into your problems without making you feel you have to compartmentalize important parts of your life. Someone who can be a safe sounding board whatever comes up. I want you to know it's ok to show up however you're feeling that day. It's ok to open up at your own pace. I will be right here beside you as you discover unique pathways towards resilience, fulfillment and fun. I center the needs of non-binary & other LGBTQ people in my practice. I help people navigate: stress management and resilience; emotional impact of chronic illness; family of origin issues; and enhancing fulfillment in all sorts of relationships through increased self-knowledge, communication, and collaboration. I believe therapy is most effective when it is a dynamic, collaborative process that integrates the wisdom of our body, mind and spiritual self. I use various approaches including Brainspotting, Heartmath, and mindfulness-based somatic therapy, that allow us to access the deep healing potential of brain, body and mind.

I believe in your ability to grow, change, and heal even in incredibly difficult circumstances. I create a supportive and validating environment, while also challenging my clients to consider different perspectives. I bring a trauma informed, strengths-based, and client-centered approach to my work with clients. I specialize in relationships, whether they are romantic, platonic, familial, professional. I also help clients develop better relationships with themselves. I work with clients to establish boundaries, determine priorities, develop greater self compassion, and align their actions with their values. Some sessions may feel free flowing and philosophical–for example, exploring the ethics of non-monogamy, the impact of diagnosis on identity, or the current political climate. Other sessions may feel more goal oriented and structured. I often suggest readings to clients, which we process and unpack in session together. I offer concrete coping skills to manage life's challenges and help clients create sustainable changes. Beginning therapy can be intimidating, so be proud of yourself for even considering it. Feel free to reach out and schedule a free 15 consultation call if you feel ready to begin this process together.

Queensborough Mental Health Counseling specializes in providing comprehensive mental health services in Queens and the greater New York community. Our team of licensed therapists offer individual, couples, and group therapy to support clients in managing and overcoming a variety of mental health concerns. We are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for our clients to work towards their personal growth and well-being. QMHC stands out from other practices through its emphasis on a psychodynamic approach to therapy. Psychodynamic therapy combines many therapeutic theories and orientations like Psychoanalysis, Adlerian therapy, Person Centered therapy, Logotherapy, Narrative therapy, Trauma informed therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). The non-adherence to any one specific orientation allows for more specialized and individually tailored treatment. This style of therapy involves guiding clients in the process of introspection and self-understanding. Facilitating personal discovery helps individuals better understand how their past experiences impact their current functioning and impower them to take more control over their life narrative. The combination of focused introspection and meaning making with practical skill development and coping tools helps individuals maintain therapeutic progress. We structure treatment in this way because we believe that knowing one's self and having the resources to confront the changes one wants to make is the key to therapeutic success.
Fighting life’s many challenges can feel like a never ending battle, especially when feelings of hopelessness and frustration take over. Perhaps you’re feeling stuck, or misunderstood or maybe you just want someone to talk to who listens and understands. You’re probably sick and tired of having to be “strong” all the time, and it’s left you feeling drained. You deserve to be heard—to be validated—to be seen. In therapy, I will provide empathy, unconditional support and guidance to help you reach your goals. I utilize integrative psychotherapy to help you break old patterns, and to understand yourself in transformative ways. I have experience supporting patients of various backgrounds struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma as well as life transitions and relationship issues. I am invested in working with black and brown populations, especially young professionals and women of color. This stems from my own experiences as a black woman of both Jamaican and Puerto Rican descent. I aim to help individuals achieve empowerment, resiliency and a more fulfilling and balanced life. Email me today and it'll be my honor to take that journey with you.
