I help college students, graduate students, and university faculty manage stress, cope with painful emotions, and navigate school, work, and relationships. Higher education offers a huge opportunity for growth and self-discovery, but it also presents unique stressors and challenges. In addition to treating anxiety and depression, I work regularly with issues of perfectionism, peer comparison, academic pressure, and burnout. I also help clients build healthy friendships and partnerships, explore ...
We work best with students who feel deeply and think a lot.

If you have ever felt like you are carrying a lot beneath the surface or trying to make sense of big emotions and experiences, you are not alone. In therapy, we create a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and build the tools to move t...

College is supposed to be one of the most exciting times of your life — but let’s be honest, it can also be one of the most overwhelming! Between academic pressure, social expectations, major life transitions, and grieving losses - whether that’s the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a sense of identity, or simply the life you thought you’d have — it can feel like too much to carry on your own. I’m Megan York, a licensed mental health counselor and grief counselor with nearly 15 years expe...

College is a big transition. It might be the first time you're living away from home—figuring out how to balance classes, friendships, roommates, and family expectations, all while trying to keep up and not fall behind. It’s exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, or just… a lot. If you’re struggling to find your rhythm, you’re not alone. And if you're an international student, this transition comes with even more layers—adapting to a new culture, navigating visa uncertainty, ...
I am particularly well-suited for college students, as I ran a research team with students for more than ten years and won the top mentoring awards at both of the universities where I was a professor. As a former professor, I do have a unique understanding of young adults and their needs. The clients who fit best with me tend to be bright and intuitive and perhaps even “overthinkers” who I often teach to think less, ironically! :) My clients come to me for a number of reasons, but one co...

Therapy is a place to talk things through without pressure or judgment—to get curious about what’s going on beneath the surface and start feeling more grounded, clear, and in control again. I believe that warmth, creativity and a sense of humor are cornerstones of...
