Therapists for college students near 30332

Catherine (She/her) As a school social worker for 27 years, I worked with students PreK-12th grade and their families in school and the community. The last 10 years I focused more on the HS level with more personal issues that were affecting students' ability to focus on their classes. I got a reputation as someone who kept their secrets and helped them sort out who they are, esp. around issues of gender disphoria, sexual identity, and depression that frequently accompanies the struggle of self acceptance and showing ones' authentic self to others. College is a tough time for many people. If you think I can help you with this transition, please set up a video conference today. It's as confidential and encrypted as I'm capable to do.

I work with adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, or significant life changes. Some know exactly what brings them to counseling; others simply know that something isn't right. Together, we identify what is getting in the way, build on your strengths, develop healthier ways of coping, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I provide individualized counseling using approaches such as CBT, trauma-focused therapy, EMDR, and IFS-informed strategies. I especially enjoy helping clients understand how past experiences may influence present thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behaviors while developing practical tools for change. Reaching out for counseling can feel difficult, especially when you aren't sure where to begin. You don't need to have everything figured out or know exactly what is wrong. We can start where you are, without judgment, and work together to understand what you're experiencing and identify a path forward.

ONLINE ONLY! In my view, psychotherapy serves different purposes at different stages of one's life. For young adults, one of the key tasks at hand is to discover their potential, talents, weaknesses, fears, wants and needs, and to manage relationships at various levels of emotional intimacy. In this process, many of us need to clarify past issues and unresolved conflicts to move forward more freely. My practice is informal, relaxed and friendly, and most of my clients come from multicultural and multiracial backgrounds, and I treasure diversity. I am comfortable working in English, Portuguese and Spanish languages.

You don’t even like the person in the mirror, so how can you hope to find acceptance from anyone else? Is your main concern your body size or shape? Your sexual orientation? The role others expect of you? You are overwhelmed by feelings you don’t even understand. You wonder if you will be stuck like this forever. You want the thoughts on loop in your head to stop, so you can get some rest. You want to be your authentic self… once you figure out what that means.
