Therapists for college students near 10003
Growing up can be challenging for adolescents- both in regards to mental health and in their relationships with peers. While mental health has become more prominent, there is often a hesitation that arises when it comes to discussing it. I offer a space, separate from their daily life and relationships, where adolescents can speak and feel heard by someone uninvolved and unbiased, but invested in being present and supportive of the adolescent. Adolescents are facing new obstacles both socially and within themselves, and while opening up can be hard, it is so important to do.
As a licensed clinical social worker in New York State, I am dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for women, teenagers, and seniors to overcome low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues, With evidence-based practices like CBT, cognitive processing, and interpersonal therapy, I empower my clients to break free from internal and external challenges, leading to a life of peace and fulfillment. I believe that every individual deserves a compassionate and empathetic approach. I work collaboratively with my clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and foster meaningful relationships. You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to share your concerns. A collaborative approach to develop personalized goals and strategies. Evidence based practices tailored to your unique needs and support and guidance as you work towards overcoming challenges and achieving peace. Please call or email me so we can schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
My philosophy in working with others is to work within a respectful and collaborative relationship, with a here-and-now orientation, that acknowledges your strengths and competencies. My belief is that you know yourself better than anyone and it is you who determines your therapy goals. I recognize that change is a process and occurs on a continuum or in stages. Where you are on this continuum will help guide our work supporting a very individualized treatment experience. I approach therapy with a sense of shared expertise - client and therapist each co-creating successful experience and outcome. In other words - you are not alone! I work within an integrated model of care which is strongly influenced and rooted in Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT), positive psychology, harm reduction, mindfulness meditation, self-compassion and acceptance-based approaches all of which are now considered mainstream approaches to psychotherapy. I am also greatly influenced by the evidence-based teachings of Lifestyle Medicine as they impact emotional well-being. I specialize in the treatment of relationship issues including infidelity; depression, anxiety and its spectrum disorders; grief and loss issues, including pet loss; lifestyle and its impact on health and wellness (nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep and social support), sexuality concerns (including but not limited to those impacting individuals who identify as gay, lesbian or bisexual, gay dads and coming out issues), as well as men dealing with compulsive sexual behavior, erectile dysfunction (ED), Internet pornography; and those living with chronic illness, HIV/AIDS related concerns, alcohol and substance use.
First off, I would like to thank you sincerely for allowing me to be a part of your personal journey. I appreciate how difficult it is to share your most intimate, private thoughts and feelings, and will guarantee you a trustworthy, supportive, and honest relationship if you choose to enter one. I am Rakell, a Licensed Social Worker continuously striving to enhance my education and experience. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's in Social Work. Additionally, I am certified in Child Welfare and Trauma-Informed Care, always embracing new training opportunities to expand my knowledge. Many of my clients often face trauma, mental health challenges, or complex family dynamics. They seek a compassionate and skilled therapist who understands the multifaceted nature of their experiences and can provide effective, evidence-based support. Their goals may include healing from past trauma, improving family relationships, managing anxiety or depression, or navigating life's transitions with greater resilience. In my practice, I take a trauma-focused approach while considering the systemic factors that influence each client's life. I employ a variety of therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Humanistic Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Family Systems Theory. I work with children, adolescents, families, couples, the elderly, and individuals with developmental disabilities. I look forward to meeting you and joining your lifelong journey to embrace your health—mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically, and culturally. If chosen to be your therapist, I will always promote safety, security, happiness, and positivity in a non-judgmental manner. I believe that a positive therapeutic relationship is a crucial tool for enhancing your healing process and capabilities. Together, we can build that relationship and work towards your goals. If this relationship does not work out, I will make every effort to provide referrals that may suit you better. Let's take this step together and create a path towards a healthier, more fulfilling life. Reach out to begin your journey of healing and growth.

If you struggle with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, trauma, other similar concerns, (or just want to work on self-improvement), and things like a non-judgmental environment, a more holistic approach to counseling resonate with you, we may be a great match.

I employ approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) (Including Exposure and Response Prevention), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness, and non-religious spirituality/transpersonal, according to the unique needs of my clients. In addition, I offer a compassionate presence and reverence to the innate wisdom held within each of us. I offer an international multicultural perspective, having lived in Ukraine, the US, and England.

You are not broken — you are human. And being human means facing change, pressure, and uncertainty — things that can feel especially heavy during college. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, questioning who you are or what’s next, or trying to balance school, family, and your own expectations. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and begin again — with support and intention. In our sessions, you’ll find a warm, understanding space where you can show up just as you are — no need to have it all together. My role isn’t to fix you, but to walk beside you. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you, reconnect you with your strengths, and find new ways forward that feel true to who you are. Every student’s story is different. That’s why I don’t believe in one “right” way to do therapy. Our work will be shaped by your needs, your culture, and your goals. Whether you’re coping with stress, adjusting to college life, dealing with family or relationship challenges, or trying to rediscover your sense of purpose, we’ll move at your pace. A big part of our work will be exploring three things: WHY – Why are you seeking change? PURPOSE – What gives your life meaning? PRIORITIES – What matters most to you right now? When we understand your why, purpose, and priorities, therapy becomes more than just talking — it becomes growth. Wherever you are in your process, you don’t have to walk it alone. I’m here to meet you where you are and support you as you find your way forward.

I think about patients from a psychodynamic perspective, and I make liberal use of both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques. In plain English? In all therapeutic endeavors, I try to maintain a balance between exploring early contributors to current troubles on the one hand -- and, on the other, focusing on present-day patterns that maintain or exacerbate them. I work from the premise that our choices and behavior often have unconscious motivations and unarticulated assumptions. I'm interested in making those processes more conscious, so you have more awareness and control over your decisions and actions. I am sometimes quiet in session so we can observe where your thoughts and feelings lead us -- but I am not a passive listener, so I will give you plenty of feedback at intervals. Difficult moments in therapy, whether due to the subject matter of our talks or to the nature of our interaction, are usually blessings in disguise-- they are often clues that we can examine for their relevance to your current ordeals.
