College can be an exciting but overwhelming time, filled with academic pressures, social challenges, and the transition into adulthood. At Elevate Mental Health, I specialize in helping students navigate anxiety, stress, depression, and the emotional ups and downs that often come with this stage of life. Whether you're struggling with motivation, feeling isolated, managing perfectionism, or dealing with past trauma, I provide a supportive space to help you gain control of unwanted thoughts, regulate emotions, and build healthier coping strategies. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, I help students develop resilience, improve self-confidence, and create a balanced, fulfilling college experience. As an online therapist licensed in Wyoming, I offer flexible and accessible sessions to fit into your busy schedule, and I can provide superbills for insurance reimbursement. You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone—I'm here to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
