Therapists for college students near New York University

I believe that supportive therapy using a cognitive behavior approach allows people to open up and try new approaches to their problems. Trauma informed care is a major component part of my practice, there are many issues that are rooted in trauma. Understanding your past helps you to face your tomorrows. I have been practicing for over 40 years and still feel passionate about helping people be everything they dream to be. Working on issues that are stopping you from feeling happiness, successful, and peaceful is my goal for you.

Do you feel like anxiety, sadness, or grief is making it hard to enjoy your life the way you hoped you would? Maybe you expected this chapter of your life to feel exciting or full of possibility, but instead you feel overwhelmed, confused, or like something is “off.” You might be dealing with loss, relationship stress, changes in your body, or worries about the future. You may not even have the words for what you are feeling. You just know you do not feel like yourself. You are not alone, and you do not have to figure this out by yourself. I’m Gabrielle, and I support students who are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, reproductive or hormonal changes, identity shifts, and life transitions. Many of the students I work with are navigating experiences like: • Anxiety or depression that feels heavier than usual • Grief after a loss or major life change • Pregnancy or postpartum feelings that are confusing or overwhelming • Stress related to fertility concerns or reproductive health • Difficult medical or hospital experiences • Identity or relationship changes that feel unsettling My approach is compassionate, down-to-earth, and centered on what you need most. Therapy with me is a place where you can slow down, explore what you are feeling, and learn tools to help you cope day to day. In our work together, you will find a safe space to: • Untangle overwhelming thoughts and emotions • Learn coping skills you can use right away • Process grief, fear, or confusion with support • Reconnect with what matters to you • Feel more grounded and hopeful again You do not have to carry everything on your own. With the right support, healing is possible, and you can start to feel more like yourself again.

I offer a warm, non‑judgmental space where you can slow down, breathe, and explore what’s really happening beneath the surface. My approach is deeply trauma‑informed and grounded in the belief that healing happens at your pace, with safety and connection at the center. I support adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, low self‑esteem, caregiver burnout, and the emotional weight of complex family systems. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from an integrative blend of EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, polyvagal‑informed work, CBT, and DBT. This flexibility allows us to work with both the mind and the body, helping you build grounding, resilience, and a deeper sense of self‑trust. Living with CPTSD myself, I understand how essential it is to feel truly seen and supported in therapy. I bring experience from inpatient psychiatric settings, where I worked with individuals facing acute mental health challenges and crisis situations. I’m especially passionate about supporting caregivers and those who tend to everyone else before themselves. I offer telehealth and in‑person sessions. My goal is to help you feel more empowered, more connected to yourself, and more able to imagine what’s possible for your life.

Hello and Welcome! Whether you're new to mental health care or have tried it out already, making the decision to seek care is an important investment in your overall wellbeing. In my private practice, I care for concerns that are common among people in university settings, including anxiety, depression, stress, sleep, and self esteem. I provide both medication management and psychotherapy services. In psychotherapy, I also work with people on all kinds of issues that may not have a specific diagnosis to go with them, but which still can have a big impact on wellbeing, like navigating life transitions, relationships, family, setting goals, and managing the stress of the world and of being a student or university employee! My practice strives to be open and welcoming for people of all backgrounds and lived experiences. If you'd like to learn more about my practice, background, treatment philosophy, or fee ranges for different types of visits, please check out my website.

If you're feeling stuck in cycles you can't quite explain and want to understand yourself more fully, I can help. With over 20 years in clinical practice, I provide psychotherapy and assessment for adults with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My psychotherapy approach is psychodynamic, mindfulness-based, and trauma-informed. Together, we will explore how your symptoms may have developed as adaptations to difficult life experiences, identify recurring patterns and discover where change is possible. Part of our work is developing a way of listening that tunes in not only to what is being said but also to what remains unspoken. I provide personality and adult ADHD assessments. In my view, assessment is not simply a way to assign a diagnosis, but an opportunity to answer longstanding questions and recognize strengths alongside patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I have a particular interest in working with adults from immigrant backgrounds. Living between cultures can leave you feeling unsure where you belong or wondering how to stay true to yourself while remaining connected to your family and community. I offer a culturally attuned and respectful space where these experiences can be explored with self-compassion.

I work with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, burnout, self-esteem issues, substance use concerns, and women's issues.

Clients often tell me they appreciate having a therapist who is warm, approachable, and easy to talk to- all while helping to move beyond insight into meaningful action.

With more than 17 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in helping adolescents, families, and adults navigate chronic stress, illness, loss, trauma, relational health, and life transitions. Whatever form difficulty takes in your life, my goal is to help you find equilibrium, develop new coping strategies, reduce stress, and move toward an improved experience of health and well-being. I believe in the strength of the therapeutic relationship and bring my genuine authenticity to every part of this process. It takes real courage to seek help, and I want you to feel that courage met with care. From our first session, I'm committed to building a strong connection so we can collaborate closely and I can fully understand your needs. If you're ready to take that step, I invite you to reach out so we can begin this journey of discovery toward healing and growth together. I believe in treating the whole person from a biopsychosocial and mind-body-spirit perspective. That means taking into account your identity, culture, beliefs, purpose, relationships, and environment, not just the presenting concern. My approach is evidence-based, insight-driven, and solution-focused, built around helping you find meaning in adversity and apply new skills to improve your health, well-being, and quality of life. Together, we'll gain awareness of your unique strengths and use them to better understand your circumstances. From there, we'll co-create goals and plans for facing challenges with clarity and a greater sense of ease. To support that work, I draw on a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, identity-affirming, and psychodynamic approaches. Throughout it all, you can expect a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where the direction of care is always shaped by your needs. My path to becoming a therapist began in a hospital setting, working alongside people living with serious illness. Witnessing how illness affected patients' emotional health, their family relationships, and their understanding of their own care had a profound impact on me. Watching people from different cultural backgrounds seek emotional support during some of the most stressful moments of their lives — and exploring what kinds of services were available to them — deepened my commitment to culturally responsive mental health care. These experiences are the foundation of how I practice today. I bring an awareness of cultural differences and a genuine focus on each person's unique perspective and preferences to every session, tailoring treatment to what matters most to you. In my spare time, I'm drawn to the outdoors. Swimming, long walks, and photographing nature are all ways I stay connected to the world around me. I also play percussion, love live music, seek exploration and travel to learn more about different cultures and try new foods from around the world, and find joy in spending time with family and friends.
