Coping with College Life - $30 / Hour Virtual Therapy Sessions in PA!
Starting or returning to college at any age? Feeling overwhelmed by the transition?
My approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to help you thrive -whether you're stepping onto campus for the first time, balancing school with work and family, or going for an advanced degree.
I'm here to help! One and done, weekly sessions, monthly sessions, ongoing mentoring and help with understanding how college works - whatever you need to succeed!
I've worked in higher education for years as faculty and an academic support specialist, and I've gotten most of my degrees while working, so I understand the challenges of trying to balance school with everything else.
Together, we’ll navigate challenges like:
Academic stress, study skills, test taking strategies & time management...
Social anxiety, identity issues & building connections...
Homesickness, work - school - life balance & life transitions...
Confidence building, career paths & personal growth...
Whatever comes up as you progress through earning your degree!
