Therapists for college students near New York University

My top priority is to provide you with a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where we can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. We will work together towards developing insight, fostering self-compassion, and finding strategies to help you live a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. We will set goals together, tailoring our approach to suit your individual needs and preferences. I have had the honor to work in the field of mental health for the past 15 years and journey alongside amazing people who were able to discover the strength, grace, and wisdom waiting for them. While I have experience providing several treatment modalities, I specialize in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have also been extensively trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Additionally, for the past eight years, I have taught courses on human behavior and additional topics at SUNY Brockport and Nazareth College allowing me to stay current on mental health research and treatments. My experience has shown me that everyone has the capacity for growth, we sometimes just need a space to discover and map out the life that we want. I would be honored to provide that space and help you bring more authenticity into your life.

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.

I specialize in working with young adults navigating anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism and relationship challenges. You might be feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, even if things look “fine” on the outside. Maybe you find yourself constantly taking care of others while your own needs go unmet. My goal is to offer a space where you feel seen and supported as you explore patterns that are keeping you stuck and reconnect with what matters most to you.

I’m currently offering both in-person and telemedicine/virtual sessions for new and current clients. If you're looking for a caring, experienced, skilled and respectful therapist, you need look no further. I have years of experience in providing therapy in mental health settings and in private practice. I utilize therapeutic approaches proven to be effective (e.g.: DBT, MI, CBT, PST, Seeking Safety for trauma and substance abuse, etc.). I am known for my ability to connect with my clients in a caring, real, and honest way and I particularly enjoy working with college age students. I have had particular success in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse/addiction, and most mental health issues that may impede one's ability to achieve their potential.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist in New York and Connecticut with over 20 years of experience, and at the heart of my bilingual practice (English/Spanish) work is a genuine commitment to understanding you as a whole person. I offer a warm, affirming space where diverse identities and experiences are not just welcomed, but honored. I work with individuals and couples facing trauma, anxiety, depression, difficult life transitions, relationship challenges, and more. My style is compassionate, attuned, and collaborative. I don’t just help you cope, I help you grow into a deeper, kinder relationship with yourself that transforms every area of your life. Life is a journey of growth, and I’ll support you to move through trauma, anxiety, depression, self-criticism, and fear of loss toward a life that feels rich, free, and truly your own. If you’ve been carrying emotional pain, stress, or relationship struggles on your own, I want you to know that reaching out takes courage, and that you don’t have to figure it out alone. When you’re ready, I’d be glad to walk alongside you. I integrate evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the Gottman Method for couples, and more. I support you to identify patterns that no longer serve you, improve communication, strengthen self-worth, and develop practical skills for symptom management, emotional regulation and lasting change. My approach also draws on 20+ years of experience using the following evidence-based modalities: Attachment-based I develop a deep, intuitive grasp of how early relational experiences shape internal working models, emotional regulation, and relational patterns, and apply this modality in a way that prioritizes our therapeutic relationship as a “secure base” from which the client can explore and rework attachment wounds. Psychodynamic I typically work with a deep, nuanced understanding of unconscious processes, relational patterns, and developmental history, applying the modality in a flexible, insight-oriented way that is tailored to the individual client’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) I work toward deeply internalizing the cognitive model and develop a highly structured, collaborative, and flexible way of applying CBT across a wide range of diagnoses, while maintaining fidelity to its core principles of cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and skill building. Dialectical Behavior (DBT) I work toward deeply internalizing its biosocial model and dialectical philosophy, applying the modality in a highly structured, skills‐based, and validation‐rich way that balances acceptance and change. Acceptance and commitment (ACT) I work to deeply internalize ACT’s core model of psychological flexibility and apply it flexibly across diagnoses, and levels of functioning, focusing less on symptom elimination and more on helping clients live a values driven life even in the presence of distress.

At the Good Life Center for Mental Health we work conjointly with clients to identify the focus of treatment and build a strong therapeutic alliance. We strive to create a warm and supportive environment to help clients achieve their therapeutic goals. I am committed to using evidence-based techniques that have been shown to produce measurable results. The therapeutic modalities I use have a robust body of research that support their use for the specific problems being addressed. My therapeutic approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and insight-oriented interventions to help identify the negative beliefs that have prevented you from achieving your personal and relationship goals and experience greater joy. I have extensive experience in the treatment of depression, self-esteem, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, body focus repetitive disorders, self–defeating habits, and bereavement.

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.

I’m a Clinical Psychologist (board certified in Group Psychology), and I work with college and graduate students who want to understand themselves better and feel more at ease in their lives and relationships. In therapy, I offer a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s happening—whether it’s stress, anxiety, relationships, identity, motivation, or big transitions. My approach is psychoanalytic and relational, which means we pay attention not just to symptoms, but to the deeper patterns and experiences that shape how you think and feel.

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.
