Therapists for college students near 15213
I am a psychologist with 25+ years of experience working with clients. I see people from 18 and up for therapy and all ages for neuropsychological testing. While testing clients need to be seen in person I am offering video sessions for therapy.
I have an eclectic, integrative style, utilizing evidence-based practices and techniques from various therapeutic approaches. I am trauma-informed, apply intersectional, feminist, and body and sex positive lenses, and incorporate harm reduction principles. Though I'm experienced and knowledgable supporting clients of diverse backgrounds, I am also cognizant of my lived experience as a queer cisgender male (he/him pronouns). I take a holistic view of clients, build upon inherent strengths, and create a partnership to guide and facilitate change, making progress toward goals.
I work well with queer people who are having difficulty navigating their inner and/or outer worlds as well as students who are struggling with keeping it all together. People who are feeling overwhelming sadness and/or stress would also be a good fit.
I have been practicing psychotherapy for 20 years. It is my privilege to be able to sit in a room and support my clients in their healing and path to better self-awareness. I believe that when therapy is done well it is a partnership between client and therapist. My clients would describe me as a warm, supportive, compassionate, validating, and informed therapist. Many of my clients are struggling with constant worry and feelings of sadness. Some are struggling with life challenges such as; adjusting to college, choosing a major, conflicts with roommates or friends, relationship issues and grief & loss. Some of my clients are struggling with drug or alcohol issues.

Therapy is more about building new associations, making new, healthier default pathways. It is almost as if therapy is taking your two-lane dirt road and building a four-lane freeway alongside it. The old road stays, but you don’t use it much anymore. Therapy is building a better alternative, a new default. And that takes repetition, and time, honestly, it works best if someone understands how the brain changes. This is why understanding how trauma impacts our health is essential for everyone.” ~ Dr. Bruce Perry I am a licensed professional counselor with over 10 years of experience in various mental health settings such as Outpatient facilities, Inpatient hospitals, Crisis Center, but mainly in public and private alternative school settings.

College brings many transitions that can be difficult to navigate, especially without the opportunity to reflect on the many changes and challenges you may be experiencing. My intention is to provide a safe space to explore your life as a student, and beyond. With nearly two decades of clinical experience, I offer compassionate and supportive therapy that openly explores thoughts, emotions, and experiences.
I work with individuals and couples who want to grow and change at a pace that feels safe, intentional, and sustainable. Together, we clarify what’s keeping you stuck now, what may need more time and support, and how to create change that is both embodied and meaningful. If you’re ready to move toward a way of living that feels more grounded and aligned, I invite you to reach out.
Immediate availability! I am a licensed psychologist who works with adults 18+ and couples, particularly around navigating stress and anxiety, insomnia, building self-confidence, navigating life transitions, and relationships. My goal is to create a space where you can feel comfortable discussing challenging experiences and relationships, build resilience and coping skills, and develop your own individual identity. I hope to make this a collaborative experience in which we can engage in problem solving and exploration around all aspects of personal and professional development, while also sharing in some laughter. I help adults and couples get unstuck, navigate challenges more effectively, and build healthier, more connected relationships and lives. I also provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), the first-line treatment for chronic insomnia. My style is warm and conversational, but also active and direct. With couples, I use Relational Life Therapy to interrupt and change patterns driving conflict or disconnection and strengthen connection. In individual therapy, we may work on practical tools, boundaries, emotional or relationship patterns, or CBT for insomnia depending on your goals.
