Therapists for college students near 27705

Hi! I'm Heather, and I have been supporting young adults navigating life transitions for the past 11 years. I have worked with college students from many different colleges and universities and I know there can be a lot of challenges to face during this season of life! I find this work to be incredibly rewarding and would be honored to be a part of your journey toward empowerment and overcoming.

There are times in our life when merely getting through the day becomes unimaginably difficult. You realize you can't shake feelings of sadness, anxiety, oppression or anger. Maybe you don't even want to get out of bed or you feel like you have conflict with nearly everyone in your life. That's where I come in. As a licensed clinical mental health counselor, with specialties in trauma, sexual assault, family relationships and adolescents, I can help or help you find someone who can. While I identify as Christian, I welcome people of all faiths, and honor all people as the individuals God has created them to be. I am committed to fostering an environment of inclusivity and acceptance and I respect all people of race, ethnicity, color, culture, religion, spiritual practice, sex, age, socioeconomic status, neurodiversity, perceived or actual sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, relationship status or configuration, national origin, citizenship or physical or mental abilities. All are precious in God's sight and mine. As a former college professor and high school teacher, I am well versed in adolescent and young adult development, including sexuality, academic challenges, transitions to college life, social isolation, substance use/abuse, relationships, family conflicts, financial challenges, sexual assault and abuse, etc. I offer a free 15-minute phone or video consultation.

I offer virtual therapy to clients located anywhere in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. My approach is exploratory, rather than pre-planned or highly structured. My style is informal and at ease; I offer a space where you can relax enough to become more of who you actually are, rather than feeling like we are analyzing or troubleshooting you. Our focus isn’t determined by what we worked on last time or by a treatment manual – it emerges from what you're wanting, wondering, or feeling each time you arrive. I work best with people willing to continue the work between sessions, by practicing present-focused awareness and trying out gentler, more curious responses to their body sensations, thoughts, and feelings. I offer a collaborative space for you to learn to listen to your pain in a way that fosters healing and insight. Because growth takes courage and vulnerability, our work will also empower you to discover your own strength and set your own pace. Our relationship will be rooted in trust, imagination, and fierce respect for the journey you’re on. My approach is a fusion of many therapeutic styles, including Gestalt therapy, humanistic therapy, feminist therapy, and Buddhist psychology. Please visit dorothycashore.com for more details about me and the way I work, then feel free to reach out to schedule a phone consult. I'd be glad to talk with you about whether we'd be a good fit.

Hi, my name is Cicely! I know a thing or two about being a college student. I understand the beauty and the nuances that being a college student can bring. The adjustment from home and what felt familiar to you is all too real. I hope I can help you navigate your college journey, no matter where you are in the process. Are you feeling stressed, burned out, alone? Let's talk about it. Having a hard time relating to people or navigating healthy college relationships? Let's talk about it. Do you feel like you're still adjusting? Let's talk about it. Let me show up with you on your path to success!

Counseling is like creating a work of art. It can be messy, beautiful, and transformative, but overall, it is a collaboration between client and therapist. I believe that you are the expert on your life and as such use a person-centered approach leaning into a balance of body, mind, and emotion. Doing so allows me to work with you to identify and reach specific goals, which assist in achieving well-being for emotional, physical and mental health. I enjoy working with a wide array of cultures and lifestyles. I currently offer telehealth sessions and see persons of all ages and backgrounds. I am trained in child and adolescent trauma, adult trauma, EMDR, human sexuality, grief, and somatic therapy, amongst other areas. I have a special focus in women’s trauma, adverse childhood experiences and military trauma, utilizing somatic modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for the treatment of trauma, depression, chronic pain, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction.

Let me ask you a few questions. Let me know if any of this applies to you. Do you often find yourself feeling tired, stressed out, overwhelmed at work, unable to focus, or constantly feeling you need a break? How about this, when you finally take a break or vacation you notice that you don't enjoy the time away because there is a laundry list of things  you feel you should be doing or need to get done before you can relax? Have you found that you have a hard time getting to sleep or staying asleep because you are thinking or worrying about any and everything when you just need to get some rest? IF any of this is you, when would you like to get started working with me?

Waking up each day to feel the weight of society’s expectations on your shoulders is overwhelming. There are times where you begin to wonder where you belong and if there is a place you can really be yourself. You were never given the opportunity to discover your true self and now you’re wondering who you really are! So many aspects of how you were raised and the things you experienced are holding onto you and keeping you from embracing new paths in your life. At times, it can be lonely navigating life while finding yourself, unlearning toxic beliefs, and learning to love the person you’re meant to be. But life is a journey! You deserve to wake up excited for the day and all of its possibilities. You are worthy of taking the time to stop and find yourself and discover who you want to be. It’s okay to acknowledge where you came from and the events that shaped you while also striving for a different path. It’s okay to question the ideals you grew up with and it’s okay to challenge the ones you feel don’t fit with who you want to be now! This is your life and you deserve to be in control of it. If any of that describes how you’re currently feeling, I would love to join you on your journey to self discovery. Finding yourself and your place in life can be challenging work but you do not have to do it alone. If you feel you’re ready to begin the journey, I am here to walk with you!

Mental health affects our relationships, and our relationships affect mental health. The quality of our social connections is the greatest predictor of well-being, which is why helping clients build healthy relationships of all kinds and heal from past relationship trauma are my counseling passions! My additional areas of specialty include anxiety, burnout, mood disorders, and substance use disorders – whether it’s you or a loved one who is struggling. In our sessions, we'll foster deep self-understanding and self-compassion, deconstruct patterns that no longer serve you or align with your values, and work collaboratively to create meaningful, long-lasting change. I offer individual, couple, and adult family therapy sessions. While my approach is unique for every client, I always use a strengths-based, encouraging, empathetic, and nonjudgmental lens. Skills training in emotion regulation, coping, communication, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, stress management, and mindfulness are integral to my work. Clients' holistic wellness is a top priority in my therapeutic process. Together, we'll analyze your overall well-being, including emotional, social, physical, and even professional, then create specific goals to get you on the path to balance and fulfillment. If it sounds like I'd be a helpful addition to your healing journey, reach out to schedule with me!

Sometimes, our own thoughts and beliefs can obstruct this peace and joy, leading to sleepless nights, stress, anxiety or depression. You don't have to endure that alone. We firmly believe that you deserve to feel empowered and to savor life's moments more deeply. At Grace Counseling and Wellness, you'll encounter a sanctuary of compassion and support. Our mission is to uplift and guide you as you transition toward the life you envision for yourself. Whether you're navigating a significant life change, healing from loss, or embarking on a new chapter, our counselors are here to walk alongside you. Together, let's embark on this journey toward healing and growth.

Maybe your life looks good on paper, but things feel much harder on the inside than anyone could ever guess. ​ You might be great at keeping up with school, work, relationships, and everything else expected of you, but underneath it all, you feel like you are going to explode with anxiety, exhaustion, and constantly trying to figure out how to keep it all together. Racing thoughts, avoidance, and emotions that feel bigger and harder than they “should be” might be getting in the way of the life and the peace you wish for. If you are trying hard to understand yourself and wondering why things that seem easy for other people feel so hard for you, I would love to help you start to sort through those challenges. I have more than ten years of experience working in schools, residential treatment settings, and therapeutic environments with teens, young adults, and families navigating complex emotional and behavioral challenges. Many of my clients are struggling with anxiety, emotional dysregulation, avoidance, trauma, and neurodivergence. I work with people who are often creative, passionate, kind, and hard working, and who’ve had to learn to adapt, mask, overthink, people-please, or hold themselves to impossibly high standards in order to feel safe, successful, or accepted. ​ I am kind, direct, and grounded in my work with clients. I won’t judge you for the ways you have learned to cope, but I also won’t be afraid to gently challenge patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is to create a relationship where you feel understood enough to be honest and supported enough to try something different. ​ I believe that insight and practical skills can work together. Alongside exploring deeper emotional patterns and past experiences, I help young people build skills for managing anxiety, communicating their needs, navigating relationships, setting boundaries, tolerating difficult emotions, and handling the everyday challenges that can make life feel overwhelming. ​

I am a clinical social worker and registered yoga teacher who empowers people using the guiding principles of empathy, curiosity, cultural humility, and collaboration. I take an integrative, somatic, and highly relational approach and work to understand how the intersection of your unique experiences impact today. I remain committed to working with people as they face a range of experiences, including multicultural concerns, oppression, identity exploration, trauma, anxiety, depression, queer/LGB+ concerns, trans and gender identity related concerns, relationship concerns, chronic illness, and grief. In addition to more "Western" approaches to therapy, my own background as an Indian-American, as well as my training and experiences in esoteric practices rooted in the ancient traditions and wisdoms of India, China, and Tibet, deeply inform my work. I draw from these practices and find these global practices seamlessly meet our more "Western" approaches. I help individuals develop an embodied awareness of how their own natural processes of self-healing may have been blocked over time by various experiences in their life. I look forward to the process of helping you deepen your self-awareness and take safe risks. I am honored and eager to help you make positive changes, and ultimately, to heal.
