Therapists for college students near New York, NY
It's been an endless search for a therapist who really gets you. Someone who can dive into your problems without making you feel you have to compartmentalize important parts of your life. Someone who can be a safe sounding board whatever comes up. I want you to know it's ok to show up however you're feeling that day. It's ok to open up at your own pace. I will be right here beside you as you discover unique pathways towards resilience, fulfillment and fun. I center the needs of non-binary & other LGBTQ people in my practice. I help people navigate: stress management and resilience; emotional impact of chronic illness; family of origin issues; and enhancing fulfillment in all sorts of relationships through increased self-knowledge, communication, and collaboration. I believe therapy is most effective when it is a dynamic, collaborative process that integrates the wisdom of our body, mind and spiritual self. I use various approaches including Brainspotting, Heartmath, and mindfulness-based somatic therapy, that allow us to access the deep healing potential of brain, body and mind. Check out my website for more info.
I am a board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist. I provided comprehensive diagnostic assessments and medication management. I am also very collaborative with other clinicians, including therapists, primary care doctors, nutritionists, etc. I have a lot of experience treating ADHD, anxiety disorders and OCD, depression, bipolar disorder, and psychosis. I have also worked with folks struggling with substance use and eating disorders. I utilize a HAES (Health at Every Size) approach. I am licensed in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Michigan. Visits are virtual, via zoom. I am out-of-network, and I provide super bills for out-of-network reimbursement.
I provide psychotherapy and contemporary psychoanalysis for adult individuals of all ages, identities, and backgrounds. I use several therapeutic techniques and an integrative approach that is tailored to suit the needs of each individual patient. I believe in the transformative powers of honesty, authenticity and unconditional positive regard. Therapy is ultimately about meaning making. I listen closely to my patients without judgment and without jumping to conclusions. My goal is to understand you on your own terms—free of any rigid diagnoses or other labels. I believe that the heart of this work resides in the therapeutic relationship itself, and to this end, I seek to build bridges of clarity and comfort between us. Our work together will consist of attempting to understand you in a holistic, depth-oriented manner. We will consider how your past might be effecting your present—have you developed patterns in your life that are inhibiting and no longer serve you well? I understand that some people seek out therapy to address a discrete, well-defined issue, while others come out of a more abstract, gnawing sense that something in their life needs to change.
I provide a safe space for people to sort out their most difficult life challenges and celebrate their prideful/joyous moments and accomplishments. Every individual is the expert on their experience, but at times can benefit from evidence based tools, skills and perceptions to aid in maximizing their potential to living a fulfilling, stress-reduced life. Together we will explore these experiences, where I will provide psychoeducation and evidence based interventions to facilitate growth and relief. I am skilled in Positive Psychology, CBT, REBT, DBT, Solution- Focused therapy, Existential Psychology and other evidence based practices.
If you are human, learning and living in today's complicated environment, you have probably experienced anxiety, stress and sadness. Therapy is like personal training or tutoring for feelings; it's curated one on one support to help you reach your emotional wellness goals. While totally normal, emotions can be difficult to navigate and result in suffering, numbing out with substances, acting against values, development of physical pain/illness and/or avoidance of situations and people. When emotions start to interfere with life, therapy can help. Inflow Wellness is a psychotherapy and coaching practice dedicated to helping people manage stress, re-establish life balance, and feel better through life's challenges; simply put- to ride waves of emotion and become more aligned in mind, body and heart.
Through one-on-one therapy, I hope to create a safe and judgment-free environment to build a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients and to experience deep self-understanding. I am passionate about working with individuals who are battling anxiety, depression, life transitions, intergenerational trauma, among other life stressors. Using an integrative approach, I hope to help you explore all aspects of your life, including your past, present and future, to gain valuable insight to overcome obstacles. I hope to work with you, and meet you where you are in your struggles. Looking forward to our journey to your wellness together!
My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, gain insights, and work toward meaningful change. I am committed to providing a compassionate and empowering space for healing, and my practice is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I prioritize your sense of safety, control, and trust at every step of our therapeutic process. I utilize a blend of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as CBT, CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy), mindfulness practices, and somatic therapies to help you process painful memories and reduce distressing symptoms.
You’ve been wondering why you do & feel the things you do—why specific behaviors keep repeating, why you feel stuck, no matter how much you try to change. You’ve done the self-help books, the podcasts, maybe a few short-term therapy stints, but you still find yourself repeating the same patterns. I help curious, motivated people ready to go deeper than symptom management. Together, we’ll explore the hidden patterns, emotional blocks, & past experiences that still shape your present. Our work will be thoughtful & challenging in the best way — the kind of therapy that helps you grow in ways you didn’t know were possible. My approach blends Psychodynamic Therapy with elements of CBT, DBT, Black feminist theory, empowerment, and sociopolitical thought. This allows us to work at both a deep, exploratory level and a practical, skill-based level, always tailored to you. Therapy can be challenging at times—it asks you to face yourself honestly—but it can also be profoundly enriching and life-changing. I work best with clients who are ready to commit to weekly, twice-weekly, or thrice-weekly sessions, so we can create the momentum & depth needed for real transformation. If you’re ready to begin that journey, send me an email.
I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute phone call to answer your questions and concerns, discuss your insurance, and make a recommendation based on your needs. Whether you feel stuck, stressed, or unhappy for too long, I will assist you to identify your goals and figure out the way to change. As a licensed bilingual (English/Chinese Mandarin) psychologist with more than 10 years of experience, I have the highest level of doctoral training to help people from diverse background to overcome the challenges and live the best life possible. I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and family with relationship concerns, stress, depression, anxiety, self esteem, anger, life transitions, emotional disturbance, trauma, and work related issues. I implement evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic strategies in an effort to best meet your unique needs. I look forward to working with you in a safe and supportive environment where you can feel free to share your thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behaviors. Give me a call, email me, or visit my website. Let's open the door of possibilities and changes!

I also work with clients navigating religious trauma and challenges, and am able to provide faith-based and/or spiritually sensitive counseling based on client needs. I believe in the client and in the expertise of their experiences. My training and background prioritizes identifying your strengths and prioritizing you as the center of your story and healing.

PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES: Rebecca’s clinical focus is on helping adult female identified dancers develop healthy relationships with their bodies and food. She guides clients in reconnecting with their bodies, often using the process of “embodiment,” a multilayered awareness of your body and how you connect to or relate to the world around you. Through the holistic practices of mind- body awareness, Rebecca educates her clients on how their emotions may sometimes be reflected through physical symptoms, often called psychosomatic symptoms. Working with Rebecca, clients also receive guidance on eating in a self attuned way to manage disordered eating behaviors. She works from the Health at Every Size (HAES) perspective and helps clients understand the internal and external factors that contribute to disordered eating, body image issues and problems with self esteem. Dancers are always on display, whether taking recreational classes at the studio or at rehearsal and especially during performances. Outside of the dance world, there’s the everyday societal expectations of how our bodies should be. Rebecca is familiar with the unique challenges dancers face on and off stage. PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT COACHING FOR PERFORMING ARTISTS: Contact Rebecca for more information. With her background in Applied Sports and Performance Psychology, Rebecca offers individual and group coaching sessions to adult dancers. Coaching sessions are available to help dancers of all levels achieve improved overall performance, using mental skills training. Coaching is separate from health care service.
