Therapists for college students near Duke University

I'm a clinical psychologist who works with college students to improve mood, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. I can help you understand your unique situation, find a healthier new perspective, and develop the tools you need to alleviate your suffering and keep it from returning. I draw on a number of therapy traditions to address depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficult adjustments, interpersonal/family relationship problems, stress, and more. Together we will explore your unique history and experience, face your challenges, and build self-worth while preserving your dignity and independence.

Hey there! At Mindful Collaboration, we get that college life is a lot—it’s exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming trying to juggle school, relationships, work, and everything in between. We’re here to support you with a team of down-to-earth therapists who know what it's like to feel the weight of all those expectations. Using approaches like Somatic Experiencing and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, we’ll help you learn practical tools for managing stress, dealing with anxiety, and navigating life’s challenges. Whether you’re looking to boost your confidence, feel more grounded, or just talk things through, we’re here to make sure you feel heard and supported every step of the way.

Sometimes we reach points in life where we feel stuck. We might be trapped in loops of negative thoughts, or feel like we’ve hit a dead end in our career or intimate relationships. When we reach out for support and connection, we find that the technology that was supposed to connect us has left us more isolated than ever. Individually or as a couple, I will help you create a space to reflect and process difficult thoughts and emotions–cultivating hope and building a deeper sense of meaning in your life story. My work is informed by psychodynamic theory and existential therapy. Both are depth-oriented approaches that emphasize exploring unconscious behaviors, emotions, and thoughts. This exploration helps us better understand ourselves and integrate our difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences to build more satisfying relationships with ourselves and others. Seeking help can feel very difficult, especially if we have been misunderstood or judged by others. If anything in my profile resonates with you I hope that you will reach out to schedule a free consult call! If you do, I promise to bring my authentic self to our work together.
