Therapists for college students near New York, NY

Are you experiencing a significant life transition, struggling with anxiety, or seeking to heal from generational or identity-based trauma? You deserve a safe and supportive environment where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered. I specialize in assisting clients from diverse backgrounds—including Latinx, African American, and LGBTQIA communities—in exploring their experiences and developing the skills to thrive. I'm Xioel Terrero, a bilingual (English/Spanish) licensed mental health counselor with degrees from Fordham University and Manhattan College. As an immigrant from the Dominican Republic, I understand the emotional challenges of adapting to a new culture while navigating issues of identity, exclusion, and resilience. These experiences have profoundly influenced my work and fueled my dedication to social justice and equitable care.

As a licensed psychologist, I offer evidence-based psychotherapy that has been shown to help manage your symptoms. My aim is to help clients learn skills and tools to help manage intrusive thoughts, phobias, generalized anxiety, OCD concerns, and sleep disturbances. Although change is never easy, I am a believer that through hard work, dedication, and determination it is possible. I specialize in short-term evidence-based therapeutic treatments. Specifically, my specialty includes treating clients with OCD, specific phobias, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and sleep related difficulties. I primarily rely on CBT approaches but tailor the treatment to meant specific needs of each client. Please visit my website for further information. I look forward to connecting with you.

I offer warm, collaborative therapy for older adolescents and adults navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and mental health concerns.

I work with college, graduate, law and medical students on test anxiety, performance anxiety, transitions and challenges, and issues regarding anxiety, depression, and trauma, I do CBT and EMDR therapy. I use Mindful skills and strategies to address stress and sleep issues. Online Virtual Therapy in New York, Florida, & Pennsylvania.

The foundation of my approach is psychodynamic but I also believe in a holistic approach to treatment that involves borrowing elements from cognitive therapy, strength based therapy, and mindfulness. In our work together I will often ask you to draw from past experiences to inform the present. I believe that we are the product of our experiences and that if we can make sense of how our past has shaped us, we can become better at identifying emotional soft spots and managing our thoughts and feelings when they become overwhelming or confusing. I believe in bringing laughter to therapy -- therapy should provide just as much space to process joy as it does to process stress and sadness. I work well with people who have a sense of humor, who are curious about themselves and others, and who are looking for honesty and directness when it's appropriate. Our sessions together will not feel like the stereotypical image of therapy you might have in mind: you draped across an ottoman, and me simply listening nearby. The goal is that our sessions be conversational and collaborative.

I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can better understand your emotions, build resilience, and develop healthier patterns in both relationships and how you see yourself. I understand that life as a young professional can be overwhelming and often leads to self-doubt and internal distress. I work with clients to uncover and shift the internal narratives that may be holding them back from showing up fully and authentically in relationships and life. In our sessions, I’ll help you manage stress and anxiety, set healthy boundaries, and navigate career transitions with intention.

I support adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and periods of transition that may leave them feeling disconnected or unsure of their next steps. While I have a particular passion for supporting women of color, I work with clients from a variety of backgrounds who are looking to build confidence, strengthen boundaries, and create a greater sense of belonging and connection in their lives. Together, we'll help you reconnect with yourself, your values, and the relationships that matter most. I work with clients experiencing loneliness, social disconnection, or uncertainty during periods of transition.

I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences with curiosity rather than criticism. I primarily draw from cognitive behavioral approaches while tailoring treatment to each client's unique experiences, values, and goals. Together, we will identify patterns that may be contributing to emotional distress, challenge ways of thinking that no longer serve you, and develop practical strategies that support meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help clients build confidence, establish healthier boundaries, and move through life with greater clarity, self-trust, and intention.

Therapy is an important and significant decision. I believe it is one of the most important choices a person can make. A therapist must be skilled, empathic, kind and generous. I feel that I am all of these things and am fully committed to each and every patient in my practice.

Whether you are suffering from depression or trying to break unhealthy relationship patterns, I will work with you to improve your life and unravel difficult patterns. I follow a relational psychodynamic perspective, incorporating behavioral and eclectic approaches. I strive to provide a safe, respectful, and empowering space for my patients to help them overcome their barriers to experience life in more fulfilling ways. Please feel free to reach out to me. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey towards a happier and more satisfying life.

I have an affinity toward working with creative personalities. I practice direct therapy. Originally a student of alternative schooling and someone who may have sat in a chair like yours, I looked for therapists and ways to learn that worked for me personally. Before my graduate program, I had found that what some therapists lacked in method, others had in heart. In my Master’s program, I studied REBT, ACT tx (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and mindfulness/meditation, which are the top tier of evidence-based practices and treatments today. REBT, (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy), is the original CBT and is a teaching model; this means I will teach you how to utilize it for decreasing negative emotions and turning them over into more positive/less negative ones, yourself.

We are holistic trained therapists and an herbalist who works from a psychoanalytical lens that aids the process of further exploring, understanding, healing, and getting to the root of our problems.

I pride myself on assisting adults to find a safe space to process their thoughts and life experiences. I have 7 years of clinical experience working with a diverse group of adults to build a stronger sense of self and confidence. Therapy is a journey. As the late Nipsey Hussle would say, "it's a marathon, not a race." However, in this regard, it's a marathon, a journey to greater awareness of self. As your therapist, I will respect your pace within the therapeutic alliance but I may also challenge you. I will support you and assist you in working towards changing your life narrative.

I have experience working in various clinical settings and previously worked at LaGuardia Community College's Wellness Center where I learned how to navigate a college counseling environment while providing care for hard-working students experiencing academic-related concerns.

My name is Ricardo and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My work focuses on supporting people navigating eating disorders, OCD, and the unique experiences of LGBTQIA+ individuals. These struggles can feel isolating—but they don’t have to be. I offer a warm, affirming space where you don’t have to explain or justify who you are or what you’re going through. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and pain points in your life with care. I use approaches like CBT, Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), and motivational interviewing, always through a trauma-informed and person-centered lens. But just as important as the tools is the relationship—we’ll build something grounded in trust and mutual respect. I know how loud the inner critic can get, how overwhelming it feels to be stuck in loops of anxiety, shame, or self-doubt. You deserve relief, and you deserve to feel more at home in yourself. Therapy can be a space where you get to exhale and be fully seen. If anything here resonates, I invite you to reach out. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can talk about what you’re looking for and see if we’re a good fit. I’d be honored to walk alongside you on this part of your journey.
