Therapists for college students near 77005

Do you find yourself beaten down with negative self talk? Do you struggle to shake the nagging feeling of discomfort, even when things seem to be going okay? While it can seem easier to avoid or suppress the struggles around us, my clients often find value in moving through these struggles, walking towards abundant life instead of simply "existing." My goal is that you may become more empowered to face life’s challenges through your counseling experience. Though I work with people from all backgrounds, I am passionate about working with others as they find abundant life and believe that this is best done in relationship with one another. I specialize in anxiety, depression and life transitions and hope to walk with you through this by offering a safe space to process your past and present self as you move towards a more full future. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, and adults, focusing on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, broken familial relationships, boundary work, and other mental health concerns. I am also certified in Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). In my free time, I enjoy being outside with my family and friends. I love drinking coffee, going for walks with my dog Rosie, and dreaming about the next travel adventure with my husband.

Hi there! My name is Nikita and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate.

Life can move fast and feel heavy. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, lonely, or navigating big changes, it’s easy to lose touch with the version of yourself you long to be. Sometimes, our stories feel invisible. Other times, they rise up, asking us to listen. You are welcome here, just as you are. We believe healing starts with compassion. Instead of pushing through with pressure or self-judgment, we offer a gentler way—one that meets you where you are. Our trauma-informed team is here to support your healing with care, respect, and warmth. Reaching out takes courage.

Welcome! As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), I believe that making mental health a priority is key to creating happiness and overall wellbeing. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for over 30 years, and I am now focused on clients aged 12-70 who are struggling with anxiety and depression. Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey.

Hi, I provide therapy for community builders, leaders and dreamers looking to make a positive impact in society from non-profit directors to public service staff and even the youngest leaders. I work with adults and kids ages 10 and up and anyone who would consider themselves invested in their community and looking to make the world a brighter place. Each one of us has our own approach to activism and our own challenges. We can work through those, so you can stay in action and keep making progress and also rest when needed and recharge. My approach is warm and holistic. Each one has our own approach to activism and challenges, too. Together we can find a balance. With over 20 years in community organizing and leadership, I understand that your service work is important, that to be heard is to heal, to recognize is to solve and that we all have the power to change lives. I believe healing is contagious: when one person begins to thrive, it ripples outward, touching relationships, communities and the world. Your journey is just as important as everyone else's and you deserve a space to recognize that, reflect on solutions and make a plans for greater happiness. I invite you to reach out and let's begin on the road.

If you’re a college student feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck, you’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. Many students I work with appear capable and driven on the outside, yet internally feel exhausted, pressured, or unsure they can keep going at the same pace. Constant stress, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, or self-doubt can quietly build until it starts to affect your mental health, relationships, sleep, or academic performance. I work with college students and young adults who are navigating high expectations, academic pressure, and major life transitions. You may be adjusting to college, questioning your direction, struggling to balance responsibilities, or feeling like you are never doing enough. Therapy can be a place to slow things down, make sense of what you are experiencing, and begin feeling more grounded and in control again. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and focused on helping you feel better in your day-to-day life. I take time to understand your experiences so we can identify what is contributing to your stress and develop practical tools you can actually use. Together, we work on managing anxiety, reducing overwhelm, strengthening self-esteem, and building healthier ways to cope so you can move forward with greater clarity and confidence. Clients often describe me as calm, approachable, and easy to talk to. I aim to create a space where you do not have to have everything figured out and where you can be honest without fear of judgment. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you are returning with new goals, you will be met with understanding, consistency, and support. Alongside coping skills, we focus on self-reflection and insight to help you understand patterns that may be holding you back and create meaningful, lasting change. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step or want to see if we’re a good fit, you’re welcome to schedule a 15-minute consultation. This gives you a chance to ask questions, share what you’re looking for, and decide whether working together feels right for you. Reaching out for support does not mean you are failing. For many students, it is the step that helps them feel steadier, more confident, and better equipped to handle the demands of college life. You deserve support during this chapter, and you do not have to go through it alone.

Hello! My name is Madeline & I specialize in ADHD, grief work, & women's issues around anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationships, & work-life balance. In my work with young and adult women (16+), I've found that through modeling genuine self-acceptance and self-compassion (instead of just talking about how important it is), my clients are more receptive to extending the same grace & kindness they give to others to themselves. Because I strongly emphasize authenticity in the work that I do, I show up to each session exactly as I am. Human. While I share therapeutically relevant experiences, anecdotes and thoughts often, they are always done with intention and care. I believe that it is incredibly difficult to form a meaningful connection with another person if the relationship is entirely one-sided. I've found that my approach to therapy differs in that I like to use a lot humor in sessions - both dark and light - which definitely isn't everyone's cup of tea, and that's okay! I am also unapologetically myself, and some days that looks a bit different than others. I'd be wasting my time and yours if I pretended to be someone I'm not or that some days weren't messy, chaotic garbage for me, too. Pretending is not conducive to connection, and I believe my approach to therapy is a testament to that fact. The therapeutic relationship is the bedrock of any therapy success story. I strive to connect to each of my clients on a deep and meaningful level by remaining authentic, genuine, and honest. I provide sincere feedback, offer many skills that can be used outside of sessions, and equip clients with the tools they need to be successful and resilient when life feels like it's just too much. While some issues may be very solution-focused and direct, others may take time. The space I offer is not only safe and nonjudgmental, it is also patient. I will sit with you in the hurt, the pain, the loss, the ache, the hopelessness, and the chaos. I will sit with you knowing that there is an end in sight, and will hold your hand as we find our way out of that darkness together.
