Therapists for college students near 02155

Accepting new clients in Rhode Island and in Massachusetts. My name is Meg and I am a licensed mental health counselor, providing trauma-informed, person-centered therapy through a feminist lens. I have a performing arts background (theatre, music, dance), which helps inform my counseling work. In our therapeutic relationship, you are the driver and I am the GPS; I will help you get to your destination faster, and will re-route as needed, but you are in control of the car. I work with individuals through a variety of issues including, but not limited to; depression; anxiety, self esteem & expression; body dysmorphia & disordered eating, past & current trauma, sexual trauma. I believe in HAES (health at every size); I practice LGBTQIA2S+ allyship, sex positivity, anti-racism, anti-bigotry, and anti-ableism.

With over 25 years of experience as a community-based social worker—and the last 7 years in private practice—I’ve developed a deep capacity for listening, supporting, and, most importantly, healing. My approach is designed to help people navigate anxiety that often arises from life’s unexpected challenges, whether big or small. I’m certified in EMDR and incorporate a range of complementary therapeutic methods tailored to each individual. If you find yourself struggling with issues that others—or even you—might dismiss as minor, it may be time to strengthen your skills and move beyond survival into a life where you can truly thrive.

I enjoy working with young adults who are transitioning into more independence and finding what resonates for them as far as careers, family, friends, fun, and overall feelings towards themselves. I facilitate art therapy directives in session to help us find solutions to questions, feel better overall, self-soothe, augment self confidence, and have fun in the process of creating--because we are all creating our lives, all the time. College, whether undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral level, is a time of growth, hard work, and unknowns. Our therapy sessions are a comfortable and safe haven for what is important to you. You can expect to feel like you are in control of your life and your emotions, as well as feeling heard and validated in our sessions.

I believe mental health is the foundation of an individual's over-all health. I focus on an integrative treatment approach with an emphasis on making life changes in addition to treatment with medication. I work with my clients to develop an understanding of their own unique stressors and pressure of everyday life/college life in order to create a well-rounded treatment plan. I feel effective psychiatry not only requires personalized care but also developing a long-lasting, trusting, and respectful relationship. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions and specialize in AnxietyAnxiety Disorders, Mood Disorders, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. To persevere is to have the persistence to achieve success despite obstacles and challenges- I strive to work with my patients to have them face these obstacles head on. Telepsychiatry available.

Do you find yourself stuck, or struggling somehow? I believe that people are doing the best they can, with the experiences and knowledge that they have. Sometimes, however, life throws so much at you that it overwhelms your ability to cope, and you might find yourself on a website like this one, saying, "maybe I need a therapist?" Whether you know exactly what's wrong (like a challenging relationship or choosing a major, or a traumatic experience), or you just have a sense that college somehow isn't what you had in mind (worried, sad, or unfulfilled all the time), then therapy can help. I can help. Please visit my website to find the Matching Questionnaire to get started.

Strengths-based clinician working with students to improve communication skills, problem-solving, relationship issues and address other obstacles to attaining one's personal goals.

Welcome! Starting your mental wellness journey can feel like a big step, and I'm glad you're here. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental space where I work collaboratively with clients to navigate life's challenge, build resilience, and create meaningful change. I specialize in working with adults ages 18+, with a focus on depression, anxiety, ADHD, chronic health conditions, and stress related to academics. Adjusting and navigating through life as a college student can be challenging, and together we can find your path to happiness and success!

I've spent the majority of my career working with teenagers and young adults. Since 2020, I've been working in a college mental health center, where I help students navigate the challenges of being in academics while also attending to the complexities of life. I love working with college students and witnessing the incredible change that can happen during this important time in life. When working together, I will always meet you where you're at, help you formulate your goals, and gently push you towards values-based living. I specialize in treating OCD and anxiety, including phobias and social anxiety. My hope is that I can help you find your voice and build confidence through my compassionate, down-to-earth therapy style. I also love to infuse creativity whenever possible to help deepen the therapeutic experience and foster self-reflection.

Welcome! Congratulations on taking a healthy and courageous step towards finding a therapist. Corner Light Counseling specializes in working with emerging adults (Teens & 20's) - we provide counseling services for college students, young professionals, and the parents and families who support them. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, loneliness, family issues, a life transition or self-esteem issues? Maybe you are navigating from high school to college, or fully immersed in your college experience and want to talk with someone who gets it (I worked in campus mental health at Boston College, Northern Essex Community College, UMASS Lowell and Merrimack College) My clients describe me as warm, collaborative and solution-focused. I utilize evidence-based treatment so that words can be found, solutions identified, and situations are improved. My clients describe feeling healthier and having the confidence to move forward with improved clarity. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to help get you started.

I view therapy not only as a means of reducing emotional distress but also as an approach to personal growth. However, I believe that therapy should not be a way of life and I therefore support clients in developing concrete skills, with emphasis on working with emotions: promoting a better understanding of emotions and emotion regulation. I view therapy as a collaborative process of exploration. I bring to this process an attitude of compassionate curiosity and non-judgment. I also draw on my own bi-cultural experience - I was born and raised in Prague, Czech Republic. I practice emotion-focused therapy, which emphasizes the positive, adaptive roles of emotions. Sometimes, however, due to stress, trauma or adverse life events, emotions can become a source of distress. Through empathic, collaborative exploration I help my clients identify their authentic emotional needs and develop strategies for managing and regulating distressing emotions. If you are located in Western Mass (Pioneer Valley) I also offer walking therapy and animal assisted therapy. Therapy is my 2nd career. My PhD is in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) and my therapeutic work is informed by 25+ years of research in AI and cognitive & affective science. I am thus very familiar with academic environments and draw on this knowledge when working with students, both undergraduate and graduate.

a Yale-educated and clinically trained therapist, I believe therapy begins with one essential foundation: feeling safe enough to be truly seen and heard. Choosing to pursue therapy is a deeply personal decision, and the relationship between therapist and client should be grounded in compassion, empathy, and trust. My approach is centered on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore challenges openly, build resilience, and move toward meaningful growth and healing. I understand that every person’s story is unique, and I am committed to meeting each client with respect, curiosity, and genuine care throughout their therapeutic journey.
