Therapists for college students near New York, NY
College can feel like a performance—keeping up with classes, friends, and family while hiding stress behind a smile. But you don’t have to carry that weight alone. In counseling, you can drop the mask and be yourself. I work with college students facing anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and identity questions—whether around culture, family, or relationships. My approach is warm and supportive, using CBT to ease anxious thoughts, break unhelpful patterns, and build real coping tools. Together, we’ll explore your story and create changes that feel true to you. Reach out today to schedule a consultation!

Hello, my name is Chris and I’m a therapist-in-training at Sol Health. Asking for help can be hard, but I believe that if you put your trust in me I will tirelessly work with you to navigate your mental health journey. I studied Psychology and English at Penn State University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. Today, I’m currently pursuing a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling at Manhattan College. My approach to therapy is rooted in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

A genuine, interpersonal connection is key to fostering meaningful growth and well-being. Chris Helmer is a therapist-in-training at Sol Health.

I am an ANCC Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and PNCB Board Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in psychiatric diagnosis, medication management, psychotherapy and holistic interventions for children, adolescents, and young adults with mental health concerns. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA, a Master’s degree in Nursing from Yale University and a Post-Master’s Certificate from Hunter College with a specialty in Psychiatric Mental Health. My background includes working in Community Health and Outpatient practices. I am strongly committed to working with adolescents and young adults and I have over 15 years of experience with a wide range of common issues like stress, anxiety, depression, and attention deficit (Attention Deficit Disorder/ADHD), amongst others. I also provide care with: relationship difficulties or family or other interpersonal challenges; stresses at work or school; grief or loss; or a tricky transition. As a dually certified provider, my treatment approach respects the client as a whole and I frequently recommend treatment interventions including the use of psychotropic medication, but also place emphasis on other important domains of wellbeing, including nutrition, exercise, interpersonal and familial relationships, and psychotherapy. In my practice, I will work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan which may include therapeutic strategies, medication management, or lifestyle changes. My clinical approach is based on the clinical and developmental needs of each client and is tailored to their individual strengths. I integrate the neurobiological understanding of mental health with an emphasis on the nursing model, which focuses on patient education, advocacy, and a holistic approach of maintaining overall wellness.
I tend to work best with college students and young adults who look “high-functioning” on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside. Many of the students I see are smart, reflective, and trying hard — yet struggling with anxiety, mood swings, burnout, panic, or a constant feeling of pressure to perform or hold everything together. You might feel stuck between who you were expected to be and who you’re becoming. You may overthink conversations, feel emotionally exhausted, struggle with motivation, or feel disconnected from yourself or others. Some students I work with have experienced past stress or trauma that still shows up in their body — through anxiety, sleep issues, emotional shutdown, or feeling on edge — even if “nothing bad” seems to be happening now. In therapy, we move at your pace. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear goal right away. My approach is supportive, curious, and collaborative — focused on helping you understand what’s happening beneath the surface and develop tools that actually feel usable in real life. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, feel less alone, and build steadiness during a demanding and uncertain chapter of life. I will be getting credentialed with additional insurances and accepting private pay-please feel free to check back or reach out if you have any additional questions or concerns.

We can work together to help you make clear choices and identify goals for the future.
Melissa Broughton is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who has a diverse range of clinical experiences across all levels of the mental health system. Her approach acknowledges pharmacology as just one element of improving a patient’s mental health while also empowering clients to engage in therapy and other avenues of wellness (nutrition, fitness, and social connection).
Everyday someone struggles with the idea of whether therapy is the right choice for them. Many people attempt to “push through”, ignore or avoid dealing with issues that may be reoccurring in their life. For some it’s about not wanting to share personal information with a stranger. Other times it’s about fear of trying something new. For many it’s about believing that they can resolve issues without support from others. Some may feel that seeking therapy is a sign of weakness. Oddly enough it takes strength and self awareness to recognize when support may be helpful. The goal of the clinician is always to provide support in a nonjudgmental, non threatening environment. If you’re reading this you have taken the first step toward change. Today is a Perfect Day to start on a journey toward a better you.

Dr. Mitchell is a neuropsychologist who offers compassionate psychological, and neuropsychological evaluations. I specialize in ADHD, learning disabilities, Brain Injury, Anxiety, Autism, and other neurodevelopmental delays.
We are a group practice of compassionate and judgment-free psychotherapists and counselors who have a holistic, integrative approach to improving mental health, taking into consideration one’s psyche, culture, identity, environment, nutrition, pharmacology, and physical health. We specialize in cultivating close, long-term therapeutic relationships with diverse and underrepresented populations, such as those from creative subcultures, intersecting minority identities, and non-traditional lifestyles and identities. Each one of us has a different psychotherapy style, and we do not use just one therapeutic modality. We prioritize ongoing learning and exploration of our own mental processes, in conjunction with learning traditional evidence-based psychotherapies. Whether you are a busy working professional, or having no luck with finding love, or struggling to connect with others, or suffering from your emotions, we want to learn who you are and help guide you toward finding the peace, comfort, confidence, and resilience to get you through life.
We are a group psychology practice of compassionate and skilled clinicians delivering therapy services tailored to fit the needs of our clients. Drs.

I provide psychotherapy to help my clients navigate through life's challenges and make positive changes. In my practice I work with many students and assist them in facing the stress that school often brings. My approach is to help my clients develop strategies to manage daily challenges while also building their self-awareness. I believe that great growth comes from one's ability to draw connections between their past and how it relates to their current issues. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them achieve their goals and have a positive experience along the way.
