Therapists for college students near Cambridge, MA

I am a weight-inclusive, trauma-informed licensed Clinical Psychologist offering a therapeutic space where clients can reconnect with themselves and others by gaining insight into their relationships. My aim is to work with you to create positive and lasting change. I specialize in the treatment of disordered eating (including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, obesity and body image concerns) as well as co-occurring mood disorders. In addition, I have extensive experience treating a wide range of concerns including significant life transitions, anxiety, stress and relationship difficulty (room mates, partners, etc.). I also have experience in working with individuals in academic and medical profession. I treat adolescents and adults. I work with my client's treatment team that may include your psychiatrist, dietician, and PCP as well as family and other supports. The foundation of my therapeutic work is the relationship between me and my client. When appropriate I incorporate techniques from other modalities.

My therapeutic approach is evidence-based, client centered, treatments delivered with compassion, humor and intelligence. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and include elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Art Therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation.

College life can feel like a lot sometimes. It’s “supposed” to be fun, but there’s often so much to navigate that it ends up feeling overwhelming. I often work with students dealing with anxiety, relationship stress, and social or family worries — whether that means overthinking, feeling unsure in friendships or dating, or trying to make sense of complicated dynamics. Many students come in wanting to understand their reactions and emotions, and to feel more in control of their anxiety so it doesn’t interfere with their college experience. In our sessions, I’m committed to creating a warm, supportive space where you can feel safe exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. With patience and careful listening, I offer insights and guidance in a gentle, thoughtful, and non-judgmental way. Together, we’ll slow things down so you can make sense of what’s happening beneath the stress — the patterns, experiences, and dynamics that shape how you think, feel, and relate to others. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and more grounded, so you can move through college with greater confidence and a stronger connection to yourself.

College can feel overwhelming — and for many students, it’s the first time they’re navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or difficult relationships without the support systems they grew up with. If you’ve been struggling to focus, feeling stuck, or carrying something that’s hard to name, therapy can help. I’m Lexie, a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience. I work with young adults who are trying to understand themselves better — why they feel the way they do, why certain patterns keep showing up, and how to build a life that actually feels like theirs. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I draw on a wide range of evidence-based methods — including CBT, IFS, DBT, somatic work, and mindfulness — and I tailor everything to you. There’s no one-size-fits-all here. I specialize in; • ADHD and executive function • Anxiety and social anxiety • Depression • Trauma and PTSD • Perfectionism • Identity and relationship patterns • College adjustment and academic stress Whether you’re dealing with something specific or just know that something feels off, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I have a variety of field experience working with people in college and in many other stages of their life that have experienced anxiety, depression, life transitions, overwhelming stress and specific traumas such as sexual assault, domestic violence and many other traumatic experiences acknowledging that each persons experience is unique. The impacts of the same event for two people could be very different and intense for one and not so intense for the other. Have had advanced training and in school internship field placement in eating disordered specific treatment and in a psychiatric crisis setting. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Currently accepting and am in network with all Tufts commercial and public plans, Harvard Pilgrim, Aetna, BCBS of any state or federal plan, Optum products such as United Healthcare and Allways/MGB.

Veterinary Social Work, Nature-Informed Therapy & Walk-and-Talk Sessions. 🌳🐕🦆🦌 Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, deeply caring, compassionate individuals who have spent so much energy taking care of others, meeting high expectations, and holding everything together that they've lost touch with themselves. They are the caregivers, changemakers, student leaders, and community builders. Too often, natural helpers arrive feeling burned out, anxious, overwhelmed and physically exhausted. They look at their lives and realize they no longer recognize themselves. I believe people have an incredible capacity to heal, adapt, and grow. Therapy is a collaborative process where we slow down, make sense of what's been weighing on you, and reconnect with what matters most. You set the pace. My work is grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection - with ourselves, with other people, with animals, and with the natural world around us. This perspective is informed by One Health, which recognizes that human, animal, and environmental well-being are deeply interconnected. I offer therapy in-office, online, and through Nature-Informed Therapy and Walk-and-Talk sessions when clinically appropriate at various locations in the Delaware River Valley's Mercer-Bucks Region. Nature-informed therapy is always an invitation, never an expectation. For some people, movement and time in nature creates space to reflect, regulate, and reconnect. Others prefer the comfort of an office or telehealth. Together, we'll find the approach that feels right for you. As an NYU-trained Veterinary Social Worker, I also provide specialized support for veterinary students, compassion fatigue, animal companion loss and grief, Emotional Support Animal (ESA) concerns, and anyone whose relationship with an animal has profoundly shaped their life. These relationships deserve to be recognized and honored. Whether you're navigating burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, grief, identity questions, relationship challenges, or simply the feeling that you've lost yourself while caring for those around you, therapy offers a place to reconnect with yourself, your relationships, and the life you want to create. *I offer psychotherapy through both insurance-based and private-pay practice settings. Traditional office-based and telehealth services may be available through insurance. Specialized outdoor services, including Nature-Informed Therapy and Walk-and-Talk sessions, are offered through my private practice. Clients are encouraged to inquire about fees and verify any potential reimbursement with their insurance provider.* If you are enrolled in the Princeton University Student Health Plan (SHP), please use the following link to schedule your consultation. https://positivemindcounseling.clientsecure.me

I believe that the core of successful psychotherapy lies in creating a safe place for you to talk about things that are truly important in your life. I am currently an online psychotherapist with over 21 years of clinical experience. I draw from various evidence-based approaches to provide personalized therapy that meets your unique needs. While we cannot always avoid the challenges that arise in our life, we do have a choice how to address them. I believe that there is much to learn from these struggles and that by facing them we create opportunity for making enduring changes in our life.

People say "you are too sensitive" when you share how you feel. Your family and heritage are important to you but there is tension. It's hard to feel relaxed in your body. At times you feel restless and at other times stiff and numb. Feeling balanced is tough. At times, you feel hopeless. You don't like how you tend to replay conversations in your mind. There are too many negative and anxious thoughts that come. Thank you for your interest in my practice! One main strategy to help you with is called EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. A technique that is based in neuroscience that heals your brain naturally-much like eye movements during REM sleep. Developing a safe space to process your emotions, memories, and implementing strategies that will be effective is essential. I am also trained in other modalities like DBT, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy.

I am looking forward to working with clients who are self-aware or interested in learning how to be more open to building up their self-interest. I'm happy to help clients recognize their struggles and the importance of seeking support. I am seeking clients who are motivated to improve their lives and understand that therapy and a willingness to change can lead to growth and improvement in their mental health. With these foundations in place, we can develop clear goals centered around reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health issues. As a dedicated mental health counselor, I am committed to providing compassionate and personalized support to individuals facing challenges related to depression, anxiety, self-doubt, low self-esteem, ADHD, stress, and relationships. I believe in the power of therapeutic collaboration to empower my clients on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. I invite you to take the brave step of reaching out. Your journey towards healing and self-discovery starts with a conversation. Together, we can embark on a path towards positive change and personal growth. You don't have to face these struggles alone, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

I specialize in mental health counseling and mental performance coaching for athletes, musicians, and performers. I help athletes learn to enjoy their sport again and focus on improving their performance. I was a Division 1 athlete at Dartmouth and spent 10 years coaching NCAA ice hockey, so I have a robust background in coaching and working with college athletes. I also specialize in working with clients with OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, and phobias. I tend to work with achievement driven academics, perfectionists, athletes, and elite performers. If this is you, we might be a good fit! I offer a free 30 minute meet and greet to see if we are a good fit. If not, I will try to help you find someone who might be a better fit for you. While I am not an in network provider for Dartmouth Student Insurance, I use Thrizer to bill your insurance for out-of-network services and you will only end up paying a co-pay. If you are interested in working with me, I'll be happy to provide you with more information.

College is a lot. The pressure to perform — academically, socially, personally — while quietly managing anxiety, burnout, or something you haven't even put a name to yet is genuinely exhausting. You don't have to keep pushing through it on your own. At Resilience Therapy, we work with young adults who are done just getting by and ready to actually feel better. We specialize in anxiety, OCD, ADHD, perfectionism, and body image — and we bring a no-judgment, no-sugarcoating approach to all of it. We provide telehealth and in-person services in NY, and telehealth in NJ, CT, FL, PA, MA, ME, CO, TX, IL, VA, SC, VT, AK, and DE. While some of our providers accept insurance, we are largely out-of-network and provide superbills for reimbursement. We also offer a sliding scale. Reach out — we'll help you figure out the details. *INSURANCE* While we are largely an Out Of Network Practice, we do have some clinicians that accept limited insurance. We offer a superbill to be submitted to insurance for reimbursement and will assist in verifying benefits. We additionally offer a sliding scale rate. Please reach out to learn more.
