College, graduate school, and early adulthood can be exciting, but they can also feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, loneliness, relationship challenges, questions about your identity, or the pressure to keep up academically while managing everything else in your life. For some students, adjusting to life away from home, navigating independence, or recovering from difficult experiences such as trauma, sexual assault, or substance use concerns can make this time especially challenging. At Modern Talk, we specialize in working with college students, graduate students, and emerging adults. Our clinicians understand the unique demands of this stage of life and have extensive experience helping students navigate both everyday stressors and more complex emotional challenges. Several members of our team have worked within university counseling settings, including New York University's Wellness Exchange, supporting students through academic, social, and personal transitions. Whether you're looking for support during a difficult period, trying to better understand yourself, or hoping to build healthier coping skills and relationships, we're here to help. We provide a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly, gain insight, and develop tools to navigate challenges with greater confidence and resilience.

I work best with students who are struggling to get things done in systems that weren’t built for their minds. You may be neurodivergent, dealing with burnout or procrastination, or feeling stuck despite caring deeply about your work. I also love helping students form their own identity, especially those who feel culturally different or come from diverse backgrounds. Many of the students I work with are carrying stress or past experiences that still show up in the present, and we make space for that at a pace that feels safe. Our work is practical and supportive, with room for both skill-building and the heavier stuff you don’t always get to talk about.

I work best with students who are trying to figure out who they are underneath all the expectations placed on them. You might be navigating shifts in your identity, exploring your gender or sexuality, or just feeling like an outsider looking for your people. If you often feel like you have to "perform" to fit in, or if you are struggling to build genuine connections while away at school, we will likely work well together.

I specialize in working with individuals who feel overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, excessive worry, and phobias. I utilize evidence based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). As a clinician, I aim to create a collaborative, non judgmental, and supportive space where you can confront your fears, build resilience, and move toward a life that reflects your values—not your anxiety.

When we are changing and growing, we can often feel anxious, overwhelmed, disoriented or uncertain. It is possible to move through the discomfort and regain our sense of empowerment. Experiences in our past can show up in our present relationships, mood, behavior and worldview. Counseling may include a combination of experiential, EMDR, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy. We'll build off your strengths and explore what will be most helpful for you. Weekend and evening appointments available. My beliefs include: There is no such thing as unusual behavior if you know someone's whole story • We don’t exist in a vacuum • Science is real • Black lives matter • Women’s rights and LGBTQ+ rights are human rights • The struggle is real but we don't have to go through it alone • Kindness and social justice are worth fighting for.

Want to skip a step and schedule online? Go to https://bit.ly/3B063jj to schedule a free phone call or jump into your first session! How is this supposed to be the best time of my life? I would guess most college students have wondered this at some point. If you find question why no one told you it'd be this hard, you aren't alone. Starting a new year can bring up a lot of old unresolved stuff while throwing new challenges our way. It sucks. Whether it's adjusting to life outside of your childhood community, navigating high-demand coursework, processing trauma from before or during your time on campus, or exploring new parts of yourself, it's a lot to work through on your own. College can range from challenging to traumatic, and no matter where you are on that spectrum, you deserve some support. I'm a secular therapist for trauma, anxiety, depression, and religious deconstruction. I work with clients to build self-trust using somatics, talk-therapy, EMDR, parts-work, and solution-focused therapy. Let's get you feeling better and give you the tools you need to navigate this season and beyond without losing who you are and what you want.
