Therapists for college students near 10003

I believe that each person wants to find fulfillment in life, and that through the therapeutic relationship, we can work together to achieve this goal. In today's world, there are so many pressures and obstacles that people face on a daily basis. I work to help people identify the factors that affect their lives, assist them in gaining insight into the causes of their problems, and develop real-life solutions to address problematic issues. I use techniques from various types of therapy to achieve this. I work to help people identify their strengths in order to increase resiliency and autonomy and develop growing self-respect. I specialize in treating couples, college students and young professionals, and individuals with borderline personality disorder. I have extensive training in emotionally-focused couples therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy, and I draw from these approaches to best treat each unique person and couple. Perhaps more than any other part of therapy or specific technique, I believe that my empathy, genuine care, and desire to help people are my greatest assets. I devote myself completely to my work and to the people I treat, and strive to make treatment as effective and meaningful as possible, with the continuous goal of creating progress in people's lives.

Therapy with me is about understanding who you are, where you come from, and honoring what’s alive in you. Our work together is a collaborative unfolding. With a creative, holistic approach, I open the space to move beyond surface problem-solving and into the heart of your story—where healing, growth, and expansion can take root. Think of therapy less as a straight line and more as a spiral: each turn bringing deeper insight, greater clarity, and new ways of being. Together, we’ll create a grounded, compassionate space where your wholeness is remembered and your complexity is celebrated.

I work with individuals, couples, and families, am certified as an Emotionally Focused Couples therapist and as a sex therapist, and have experience treating a variety of problems including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, sexual issues, and problems with academic and job performance and with career advancement.

Do you feel like you're taking care of everyone else in your life? Maybe it's time to work with someone who can hold space for you. I work with a range of clients who feel stuck, lost, unmotivated, or anxious, and I specialize in helping clients navigate major life changes (including quarter-life crises), work through imposter syndrome, and engage in self-exploration. I am a holistic practitioner trained in a variety of modalities, but I most often draw from Somatic Experiencing and psychodynamic therapy techniques. As a former educator, college counselor, and therapist in a college wellness center, I am well-versed in how challenging the transition to college can be. Whether you are working towards your bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree, managing competing priorities can be challenging and incredibly stressful. My aim is to help you start feeling more like yourself.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed? Would you like and to make the best decisions for yourself? Do you need to prioritize your obligations and responsibilities? Are you worrying about everything—in the present and future? Are you struggling with your mental health, education, career, relationships, social circles? Do you need someone to help you create true, lasting change? Being a emerging adult is an exciting time that can be filled with possibilities for adventure, growth and exploration. At the same time, it can bring a sense of confusion and feeling overwhelmed about who you are, what you want and how to get there. Maybe there are obstacles, new or old, that get in the way of making progress. According to the American Psychological Association (APA), younger adults today face more stress than any other previous generation. Your concerns are unique from those of your parents, making a tailored, custom approach to therapy most beneficial. I provide such an approach. Emerging adulthood is the perfect time to discover new strategies to better manage your life so that you can become your best self and have the future that you want.

We are often engaging in life through the means that we have been taught by all of those who have come before us. Life has become a perpetual cycle where bliss, peace, harmony, and all of the other facets that make life worth living seem to escape us more and more. Instead, we are trapped in depression, anxiety, distrust, judgment and more often than not our physical temples are suffering. Collectively, a shift in perception is needed. This starts with the individual. Traditional integrative psychotherapy infused with an array of healing modalities intuitively tailored to your specific needs. The sessions can include Kundalini yoga and Meditation, Energetic Clearing, Light Language, Shadow Work Healing, Ancestral Clearing, Womb Activation Healing & Cosmic Coding. ​ If you do not have self –awareness; if you do not bask in your own love, if you are running on autopilot and have no INNERstanding- the world around you will reflect this. Your life is your classroom it is perfectly woven to bring you back to you. No exceptions. Take the time to be in relationship with self and know that all else will follow.

Welcome! My name is David Elliott and I have worked in a variety of settings dealing with intergenerational and complex trauma. My experience spans from early intervention to community mental health clinics, providing counseling services to all individuals. I have found that across all settings and people, the most important aspect of therapy is developing a relationship in which the client feels safe, respected, and held accountable. I am passionate about mental health and can recognize the impact emotions and daily traumas can have mentally. My mission is to help you enhance your quality of life. I offer psychotherapy with an integrative approach utilizing different theoretical frameworks to individualize sessions and goals. While working collaboratively a treatment plan will be tailored to one's own unique specific need. Together the goal is to create an environment where one feels safe, heard, and free to explore all of one's challenges. Together we will explore what brought you to therapy and decide the most effective ways to help make progress. By learning new strategies and gaining a deeper understanding of the origins of these challenges, the goal is to leave sessions motivated, inspired and with a deeper understanding of coping skills including mindfulness based techniques.

Welcome to the Brooklyn Center for Mindfulness and Psychotherapy, where healing, growth, and transformation are at the heart of our practice. I’m Liza Mordkovich, a dedicated professional with a passion for helping individuals conquer anxiety, addiction, stress, and navigate the complex terrain of perinatal mood disorders. My approach to therapy is characterized by warmth, eclecticism, empathy, compassion, and a focus on solutions. I believe that every person has the innate capacity for change and growth, and my mission is to help you overcome obstacles, improve relationships, and lead a gratifying and joyful life. I draw from a wide range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), to assist individuals in coping with emotional distress. My toolkit also includes mindfulness practices, meditation, hypnotherapy, art therapy, and trauma-focused approaches, allowing me to tailor treatment to your unique needs.

I believe in community care, liberation, growth, joy, resilience, healing, and justice. The trauma we experience can make us feel so disconnected and dissociated while also craving connection and warmth. I am here to invite and support you in exploring connections to yourself, your communities, and the world around you. Through understanding our intersectional identities, we can start to process and unpack the ways we struggle to show up for ourselves and each other. Healing is a process that takes time, authenticity, and gentle care. My experiences and work are shaped by my identities, how I create and sustain joy, and community. I find it incredibly fulfilling to continuously build relationships through empathy, curiosity, and compassion. My areas of focus include trauma, relationships, life transitions, grief, polyamory/non-monogamy, kink/BDSM, and other alternative lifestyles. I am a queer, trans/nonbinary, neurodivergent, 2nd generation Chinese American. My approach is rooted in liberation and relational work through anti-oppressive and social justice lenses. I draw from modalities such as psychodynamics, somatic work, narrative therapy, and mindfulness. Please reach out for a free consultation to see if we would be a good fit.

Visits are virtual, via zoom. I am out-of-network, and I provide super bills for out-of-network reimbursement.

My mission is to cultivate healthy, resilient, and connected athletes, coaches, and communities through trauma-informed, whole-person well-being. As a proud first-generation Korean-Filipina American, my journey as a former elite athlete and two decades as a psychotherapist shape how I approach personal growth and transformation. My approach integrates psychodynamic with trauma-informed, meditative, mindfulness, and mastery performance development for comprehensive healing and optimal performance. I’ve built my practice across New York City’s public, nonprofit, and private sectors, providing specialized training at institutions like NYU Medicine and Health and Hospitals while mentoring emerging practitioners from Columbia, NYU, and other leading programs. My experience as a first-gen Woman of Color, athlete, and parent enriches my therapeutic approach. Los Angeles born, New York City nested, I bring bi-coastal energy to my work, including co-hosting “Hahnacity”—a podcast focused on healing through storytelling—with Joy Hahn Silva Millora, former elite gymnast and now coach. Whether I’m cheering for the Lakers and Dodgers or connecting with “The Steam Room” community, I live the connection between athletic mindset and psychological well-being.​

I work with LGBTQ+ folks and anyone navigating trauma, OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, or big life transitions... like college students who are panic googling "what am I doing with my life??" at 2am. If you want to make sense of it all without judgment, basic "talk therapy," or silent nods behind a clipboard and want a therapist who keeps things chill, real, and sometimes even funny - I'm your girl. Whether you're spiraling over every “what if,” feeling stuck in patterns that stem from the past, or feeling like you’re losing your mind trying to figure out who you are & where you’re going, we'll work through this together.

Do you have a sense that people don’t get you? Do you travel a different path than everybody else? Are you living your life very differently from what other people expect you to? Do people tell you that sometimes you are thinking way outside the box? Are your parents different from you and do they want you to be someone else? Life can be tough when you feel different. Different can also mean isolated, lonely, and misunderstood. It can also mean constantly asking yourself: Will I ever fit in? Can anybody understand me? Why can’t people accept me for who I am? Am I doing the right thing? Will I be happy? That’s what I can help you with. BE DIFFERENT AND STILL FIT IN. The therapist-client relationship is a collaborative one, where you are an expert on yourself and we work together towards your goals. I believe that you should be satisfied with the services you are receiving and thus I frequently assess the clients' progress and satisfaction with my services during the duration of therapy. I strive to tailor therapy to best fit your needs. My approach to working with clients is practical and straightforward, yet warm, genuine, and supportive.

I know that life can be challenging, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I’m a board-certified, Mount Sinai-trained adult psychiatrist, and my passion is helping individuals like you achieve optimal mental well-being. In our work together, I combine therapy and medication, when needed, with practical lifestyle changes—like improving sleep, nutrition, and mindfulness—to help you create a balanced, healthy life. I believe that everyone’s journey is unique, so I’m dedicated to crafting a personalized treatment plan that fits your specific needs and goals. I take a holistic approach to mental health, considering not just the mind and body but also the cultural and social factors that shape our experiences. This is especially important to me in the South Asian community, where discussions around mental health can feel daunting. I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where you can express your concerns. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, cultural challenges, or life transitions, I’m here to help you find the clarity and resilience to thrive. Together, we can work towards your mental health goals and foster a brighter, more balanced future. I look forward to partnering with you on this journey!

Leveraging my dual expertise as a Mental Health Counselor & Registered Nurse, I have a holistic approach to therapy + mind-body health. We might be a good match if you're a young adult experiencing relationship or confidence issues that leave you feeling like you're not enough. Maybe you've been told to "stop overthinking", or you're constantly doubting yourself and comparing your accomplishments to everyone around you. Our work together will help you heal from the past, feel more confident, set boundaries, build meaningful relationships & friendships, and become more of the person you truly want to be. I specialize in performance goals (academic or sport), self-esteem & confidence, and ADHD. I offer online therapy for New York state residents. As a modern therapist and registered nurse, my approach is holistic, warm, motivating & collaborative. I go beyond surface-level advice like, "just be yourself" or "don't worry". Together, we'll work to uncover what’s beneath the patterns that are holding you back so that you can move forward in life and achieve your goals. I focus on creating a space where you feel understood, encouraged, and motivated. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling like you're growing, evolving, and becoming your best self.

Therapy is a powerful tool in the process of inviting our most authentic selves to emerge. My approach is grounded in an integrative blend of Eastern and Western modalities and philosophies with the goal of fostering a greater connection between the mind, body, and spirit. In sessions, we will bring awareness to the relationship between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to better understand the blockages that are preventing you from living a fully expressed life. I provide a compassionate and safe container to work towards healing past wounds while addressing present problems. I received my Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University and have been trained in Holistic Psychotherapy by Rebecca Greene, LMHC, CYT. My treatment modalities include Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Mindfulness, Relationship Counseling, and Interpersonal Psychology. I have experience working with a wide range of clients across various stages of life who are working through issues related to relationships, codependency, grief, past and present trauma, anxiety, stress, and the feeling of overwhelm, spirituality, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. I am affirming of diverse orientations, identities, relationships, and family systems including, but not limited to Polyamory and Consensual Non Monogamy, LGBTQAI2+, Genderqueer, Kink/BDSM, Monogamous, Straight, and committed Allies and family members.

I work mainly with young adults (18-40) who may be dealing with mental health challenges that include ADHD, anxiety and depression.

For 30+ years, I've helped adults recover from complex trauma, developmental and attachment trauma, narcissistic and psychopathic abuse, addictive disorders, emotional neglect and chronic relationship difficulties. My clients are insightful, motivated individuals struggling with codependency, dissociation, or the lasting effects of childhood trauma. Through trauma-informed psychodynamic therapy we identify and transform the survival patterns that once protected you but now limit your life. Healing fosters regulation and safety, allowing the parts of yourself exiled by fear, neglect, betrayal, and chronic adaptation to be reclaimed. I integrate psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-informed therapy with attachment theory, somatic awareness, neuroscience, mindfulness, and spiritual exploration. My goal is not simply symptom relief, but helping you create a cohesive, authentic life aligned with your deepest values and fullest potential. Therapy is a collaborative process grounded in curiosity, compassion and respect. Together we excavate the deeper origins of your emotional suffering while developing practical tools for nervous system regulation, healthier relationships, and lasting change. Even when trauma has shaped your life new patterns of safety, connection, and vitality can emerge.
