Therapists for college students near 02139

Maybe you've spent so long being strong for everyone else that you've forgotten what it feels like to be understood. Whitney is a licensed therapist in Hanover who believes healing starts in a real relationship, one where you're heard and accepted as you are. She works with adults carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or grief, attuned to how culture, race, and identity shape how we see ourselves. Many clients are also moving through a shift: going through big life transitions/adjustments, or untangling patterns that once protected them but no longer fit. Whitney meets each person with warmth, in person in Hanover or by telehealth anywhere in Massachusetts. Sessions center on the relationship as much as technique. Whitney draws on relational, humanistic, and psychodynamic thinking: naming patterns that keep you stuck, building steadier ways to ride out big emotions, and understanding how family and culture shaped how you cope. You don't have to arrive with the right words or a tidy explanation of what's wrong. My hope is that you leave each session feeling a little lighter, not fixed, just less alone with it. If you're ready to be heard without having to perform being okay, I'd be honored to hear your story and support you along the way.

My name is Rebekah, and I work with young adults seeking insight and change who are willing to explore the barriers getting in the way of living the life they want to live. If you are seeking more authenticity and flexibility in your life and want freedom from symptoms holding you back, I can help. I have over a decade of experience working with college students, including time at University of Pittsburgh, Boston College, and MIT. My approach values the interconnection of mind and body, as well as the profound impact of past relationships on present functioning. Through insight building, self-compassion, and emotion regulation, we work toward sustainable behavior change that fosters a life of purpose and meaning. As a therapist, I take an accepting and curious stance aimed at providing you with empathy and empowerment. My work is rooted in appreciation for self-determination and deep respect for the unique identities you bring to the room. I offer telehealth services and in-person appointments at my office in Catskill, NY. I look forward to connecting!

Hi, my name is Alicia! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Narrative Therapist. I work with clients to identify the effects that problems are having in their lives. I offer a space for people to feel empowered while exploring their values and working toward their goals. I believe when people have the chance to be seen as a person rather than a problem, they are able to create change in their life in meaningful ways. I support my clients by shifting away from blame and addressing the problem directly. I believe therapy is a collaborative process between client and therapist. I bring curiosity, connection, acceptance, and humor into the therapeutic space. I think all people are unique and valuable—Everyone deserves a safe therapeutic space to be heard and appreciated for who they truly are. Feeling genuinely heard is the first step towards sustainable change.

Do you feel like your emotions get in the way of you achieving your goals, affect your relationships, and keep you feeling stuck? Do you feel frustrated, unable to break patterns, or move forward? Or has a new life transition impacted you greatly and you don’t know where to go from here? My focus is on helping you learn how to regulate your emotions -- to be more in control of them than they are of you. In our sessions, we'll identify patterns, better understand them, and work together to come up with a plan of how to achieve your goals. My background is in CBT, DBT, trauma, grief and loss, and perinatal mental health. It can be hard taking the first step when you're struggling, but you've already done it by being here! If you live in MA or NJ, are open to telehealth sessions, and think we may be a good match, you can learn more about me at my website. I look forward to hearing from you!

Accepting New Clients in Rhode Island & Massachusetts! Balancing academics, relationships, and personal well-being can feel overwhelming. Many of the students I work with are high-achievers struggling with stress, perfectionism, and the pressure to succeed—often at the expense of their mental health. You might feel burnt out, anxious, or stuck in unhelpful patterns with food and body image, leaving you disconnected from the confidence and joy you deserve. I specialize in helping clients - individuals, couples, and families - navigate relationship stress, academic pressure, and self-doubt. Together, we’ll develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, set healthier boundaries, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself. My approach is collaborative and solution-focused, giving you the tools to feel more in control, balanced, and fulfilled. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and looking for support, reach out—I’d love to help you find a path forward that feels sustainable and empowering.

You know something needs to change. You're tired of the way you've been feeling. Maybe you're struggling to identify what would help, or you already know what to do, but can't seem to find the motivation to follow through. Maybe you can imagine just what you want for yourself, but you get stuck when it comes to making changes you can stick with, leaving you frustrated, embarrassed, or disheartened. I'm here to help you identify what's working in your life and enhance it, and to find what isn’t working so you can determine, with clarity and kindness, what you want to change and how to develop the life you really want.

I partner with individuals offering compassionate, trauma-informed care that promotes healing and personal growth.

I have experience working with individuals, from diverse backgrounds. My areas of work have included but are not limited to struggles around anxiety, depression, identity concerns, self-esteem issues, trauma, life transitions, relational issues, and daily stressors. I use an eclectic approach, drawing from various practices such as relational therapy, narrative therapy, client-centered therapy, attachment theory, some features of dialectical behavioral therapy, psychodynamic framework, and I approach therapy through a mindfulness, justice-orientated, culturally sensitive, queer-affirmative and a trauma informed lens. I believe in a relational process in which finding a therapist that is a "good fit" as the groundwork for a supportive, transformative process. I believe that every individual can examine their life's journey and own their story; all while strengthening self-compassion and working to navigate who and how to be in relationships.
