I earned my PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) degree at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and I have worked in different settings including university/community counseling centers, dual diagnosis treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitals (Austen Riggs Center). I work from a psychoanalytic orientation. This approach emphasizes the importance of both past and present experiences, relationships, emotions, patterns of being, and the unconscious. While it is natural to want to move away from suffering, it is when we give it a voice that healing can begin. Though genetics can play a role in the development of psychiatric problems; symptoms are some of the ways our psyche and body deal with pain that has not been understood, contextualized, and articulated. My goal as a psychoanalytic therapist is to help my patients notice how their symptoms are not accidental experiences to dodge, but rather meaningful communications to explore. Only through this inquiry can patients tap into interpersonal and intrapersonal as well as conscious and unconscious phenomena that have shaped their life and continue to contribute to their suffering.
Personalized Psychology tailors our treatment approach to your needs. We use both evidence-based and supportive methods to find what works best for you. We create a warm nonjudgmental atmosphere so starting therapy doesn’t feel scary!

I am a psychiatrist with experience helping college and graduate students navigate the ups and downs of campus life. In my previous work at Yale Mental Health and Counseling, I supported students dealing with academic stress, identity exploration, mood and anxiety concerns, and the pressure to achieve. In my practice now, I bring together medication management, therapy, and integrative wellness approaches such as mindfulness and somatic practices. My goal is to offer a supportive and collaborative space where you can feel understood, build resilience, and discover ways to feel more balanced and empowered both personally and academically.
Hello! I'm a LMHC in the state of NY working primarily with young adults and those looking to explore their identity. I enjoy looking at things with a creative and holistic approach. My previous time working in and around the arts also helps to inform the way I work. I hope that I can be a helpful partner on your journey.

Hello! I'm Dr. Wilson, a licensed psychiatrist with a passion for helping people feel their best! My background includes an undergraduate degree in human nutrition and Doctor of Medicine (MD) from the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. I specialize in medication management and provide convenient virtual sessions to fit your busy life! The current focus of my practice includes treatment for anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, OCD and more. To accomplish this goal, I utilize a holistic approach to mental health which includes medication management, inclusion of therapy within each appointment, and exploring any alternative treatment strategies necessary. At this time, I provide virtual-only treatment (no in-person sessions) so you can be seen in the comfort of your own home! We can begin your path to wellness by completing an introductory session to help define your goals. After this, we can develop a strategy for maximizing your mental health including selection of any appropriate medications.
My mission is to support, guide, inspire, motivate, educate, and empower students to improve academically and mental health. My intensive clinical training allows me to provide students with effective counseling, social support, and education so they can transform challenges into positive change and become the best version of themselves which can lead to self-confidence, academic improvements, and a sense of independence. I have experience helping college students with stress management anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, academic challenges, and career difficulties. I provide brief solution-focused & CBT treatment modalities. Every student will have a tailored individualized treatment intervention to meet their unique strengths, needs, and goals.
I provide psychodynamic psychotherapy in a multicultural context. I provide a compassionately insightful and culturally-sensitive space that allows you to attune to your inner wisdom, leading to contentment in personal and professional pursuits. Psychodynamic orientation is based on an insight-oriented approach of becoming aware of unconscious patterns rooted in our past that significantly impact current functioning in relationships, work, and recreation. I incorporate mindfulness meditation or relaxation techniques if the client prefers. My practice is exclusively telehealth-based, and research has shown telehealth to be very useful for treatment. I offer psychotherapy via a video HIPAA-compliant platform that protects your privacy and bars unauthorized access. Telehealth provides convenience for both the provider and client without compromising the quality of treatment. It is exciting to witness the ease of mental health access that telehealth provides. Now, you don't have to limit your therapist search to your local area but can instead extend it all over the state! I hold these qualifications: I have a doctoral degree (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology from the University of Hartford, and the program is approved by American Psychological Association (APA). I completed an internship in clinical psychology, approved by the APA. I completed a formal Post-Doctoral Fellowship in college counseling. I am licensed as a Psychologist in New York state.

Hi, I'm Lisa Grine, MSN, APN, PMHNP-BC Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner for College Students What Students Say About Me "Great listener, knowledgeable, and kind-hearted." Years of Experience 10 years+ My Approach I'm both warm and direct—able to match whatever you need in that moment. Sometimes that means sitting with you quietly and listening. Other times it means telling you what I see, even when it's hard to hear. Our sessions are structured conversations, not free-flowing chats. I believe that clarity helps. What I Work With Most • Anxiety, mood concerns,(mental health during prenatal, during pregnancy, and postpartum needs), and depression to name a few • High-achieving students experiencing burnout and life transitions • Young adults-both undergrad and graduate students How I Work Often, college students feel forced to choose between success and wellbeing — but together, we can find a way to balance both! I take a holistic approach to care, which means looking at the whole person, not just symptoms. And let's be honest, it's no surprise that college life can throw our health off track — skipping fresh air, surviving on less-than-ideal food, and running on questionable amounts of sleep are basically a rite of passage. Integrative and Holistic care also means honoring your religious beliefs, ethics, morals, and value systems, because those things genuinely shape who you are. I offer medications when clinically appropriate, but my focus goes far beyond that. Having worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I understand the intensity of acute care as well as the importance of building sustainable, everyday coping strategies that actually fit your life. Who I'm Best Suited For I tend to connect well with women, men, and provide mental health support for women who are pregnant, peri/postpartum. I am strictly telehealth and so if someone needs a stimulant or controlled substance I can recommend providers who are in person or hybrid to match those needs based on current laws and restrictions. I'm upfront about this because I believe matching matters. If you are in any acute danger please seek emergency care first as this practice is outpatient. If you're looking for a provider who shares certain values or experiences, that can make a difference in how comfortable you feel. The last Saturday of the month, I am open to accommodate your schedule if needed in the mornings.
I understand the difficulties of navigating adulthood, college expectations, personal expectations and family obligations. I have years experience working with individuals who are struggling with life stressors and together we can explore the events which have you reaching out for help.

It's remarkable how our thoughts work against us creating anxiety, depression, and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck.

Whether it is getting rid of your fear, understanding why you are so sad, dreaming of a healthier relationship, or just trying to figure out what will actually make you happy, we are here to help you learn how to take control of your life. We utilize a variety of approaches that best fits the needs of my clients. We work closely together to assess your needs, create goals, and customize a treatment plan that will point you in the direction of the progress you are hoping to achieve.
Hi! Thanks for stopping by! As an experienced therapist, I equip you with practical tools, skills, and strategies to effectively manage the stresses of academic life while juggling the demands of everyday existence. Through personalized guidance, I empower you to cultivate healthy personal and professional relationships, which are pivotal in navigating life's complexities, especially when balancing work commitments alongside college studies or internships. With a focus on your individual growth and fulfillment, I facilitate the development of essential life skills that enable you not only to thrive personally but also to shape the life you aspire to lead. Drawing from my extensive experience supporting young adults during this transitional phase, I empathize with the common fears and challenges that can hinder progress and cause dissatisfaction. By exploring your emotions and identifying recurring patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, and unfulfilling relationships, we work together to break free from negative cycles and forge a path toward greater well-being. Our initial sessions center on understanding the influence of your family background, current struggles, and inherent strengths, laying the foundation for targeted interventions. Using a blend of Solution-Focused Therapy, which emphasizes proactive problem-solving, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which examines the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, I guide you in creating actionable goals that foster tangible progress and instill confidence in your journey toward improved mental health and life satisfaction. Please connect with me through email or phone (texting) to discuss my availability and I can learn more about yours. So, let's chat! I offer a free, 15 minute phone consult to briefly discuss your challenges to make sure I would be a good for you. Happy to help!
The clients I work best with are those who feel overwhelmed by their emotions and are looking for creative ways to express themselves. Many struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences that feel difficult to put into words. They often have a hard time adjusting to new experiences, managing relationship challenges, or coping with the stress of school and balancing responsibilities. My approach provides a supportive space to explore these feelings, helping clients build self-awareness, resilience, and confidence in their ability to navigate life’s challenges.
