Therapists for college students near University of Richmond
We offer a range of cost effective services for students, from free sessions to discounted ones, depending on the provider. Being a student comes with its own stressors, adjustments, and ongoing difficulties. We are here to support, to educate, to help cope, to advocate, and to empower each student. We assist with symptoms related to depression, anxiety, traumatic stress, adjustment disorders, substance abuse, relationship stressors, and we collectively come from a holistic perspective that utilizes a psychodynamic and trauma-informed approach.
I work with a variety of needs and concerns including trauma, PTSD, Complex-PTSD, ADHD, substance use concerns, anxiety, depression, OCD, social anxiety, and stress. I offer virtual therapy throughout Virginia and the District of Columbia. College is a wonderful time to begin or continue on with therapy as there are so many life adjustments happening.
Are you feeling stuck or struggling to make changes in your life but can’t quite figure out how to get there? I offer tools to help people learn to decode their emotions so that they no longer need a therapist guiding them, but rather they can address life's challenges with greater confidence. My treatment focuses on helping people accept the past, and make concrete changes in their lives that lead to a greater sense of peace and satisfaction. My aim is to create a warm and collaborative environment where you can feel comfortable expressing your emotions. While I focus on a large range of client concerns, I specialize in anxiety, and managing and improving health. I address topics such as anxiety about health, sleep, depression, illness/chronic pain, relationships and sex, weight management, trauma, and addiction. Since all clients are unique, I customize my treatments to fit each individual. If you feel like meeting with me could be a good fit, please do not hesitate to reach out to schedule a free phone consultation. I hope we can work together to address your concerns!

Hi, I’m Sydney. I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner seeing patients virtually across Virginia. I specialize in helping adults with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, binge eating, trauma, or those seeking general support for stress or life transitions. I also assess transgender and gender-diverse adults for gender-affirming medical and surgical treatment, and offer ADHD testing for evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care — you’re not a diagnosis or a checklist. You’re a whole person, and I meet you as such. Our work together is collaborative. We’ll talk about what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s possible. I’ll always meet you where you are—whether that’s with medication support, psychoeducation, diagnostic clarity, or simply making space for you to process and be heard I blend the best of both Western medicine and Eastern healing traditions to create a treatment plan that’s as unique as you are. That might include prescription medications, herbal or plant-based options, lifestyle shifts, and talk therapy — all working together to support your healing and growth. I’m not anti-medication, but I am thoughtful about its use. If you're looking to reduce or simplify your medication regimen, I bring experience in safe, collaborative de-prescribing. We’ll work together to make choices that feel right for you — at your pace and on your terms. This is not about me telling you what to do—it’s about us exploring what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s possible. We may be a good fit if: ✓ You’re seeking treatment for Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Binge Eating, OCD, PTSD, or general life stress ✓ You want care from an LGBTQIA+ provider ✓ You’re interested in reducing medications and exploring holistic options ✓ You’re unsure about your diagnosis, have multiple diagnoses, or feel past ones missed the mark ✓ You are seeking an evaluation for ADHD. ✓ You’ve tried several psychiatric meds without success or are sensitive to medications
The people I work with mostly have their shit together but feel like there’s more to life. They are insightful and want more meaning in life. They come in feeling not good enough and battling perfectionism. When working with me, they identify patterns that don’t work for them anymore and learn the skills to overcome them.
Hey there! In counseling, I have a special interest in working with individuals struggling with anxiety, life transitions, body image, trauma, cultural shock, and career struggles. I also enjoy helping clients overcome family patterns they feel stuck in and those who have people-pleasing tendencies. I want you to know that there is no shame or guilt in seeking therapy, only the desire to help you grow, however that looks for you. In therapy, I take a holistic approach and address both the mind and body, as they are interconnected. I enjoy using inner child techniques to help clients process past hurts and move towards healing. I also believe practicing self-compassion to empathize with those parts of ourselves that are sometimes hard to acknowledge is a freeing experience. I know that reaching out can feel nerve-racking at first, so take a deep breath and remind yourself of how courageous you are being. If you are ready to seek care, I would love to see how I can help. Proud of you for taking care of you!
Hi! I’m Jen (she/her) and I’m not perfect. It took me a long time to be able to say and accept that. In fact, I now embrace the things that are imperfect - all my difficulties and challenges. I have navigated these throughout my life and seek to help others navigate their difficulties and challenges, as well. My therapy style has been described as informal, direct, genuine, and humorous. I am fully authentic with my clients and I hope my clients will be fully authentic with me. I tend to be blunt and call people out on their BS - I say what you can’t or won’t and teach you to do that for yourself. Together, we will address your difficulties by connecting current thoughts, beliefs, and emotions to past experiences. We can’t fix the past, but we can change how we view it and move forward.

Do you feel weighed down by unresolved trauma passed down through generations in your family? You may experience sadness, anger, anxiety, guilt, or shame, and feel unprepared to regulate your emotions, build secure relationships, or navigate your cultural identity. You don’t have to carry this burden alone. Together, we can help you build emotional resilience and rediscover a sense of self. As a bilingual/bicultural licensed professional counselor and registered art therapist, I use a trauma-informed and culturally responsive approach tailored to the unique experiences of BIPOC young adults. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your emotions, strengthen relationships, and embrace your cultural and personal identity. Taking the step to connect with a therapist is an act of courage, especially if therapy wasn’t normalized in your community. I honor and respect the cultural and familial context you bring to this journey. Book your free 20-minute consultation today and let’s work together to prioritize your mental health!
