Therapists for college students near New York University
If you are located in NY and RI, I can provide you year-round teletherapy when you are at away at college and at home, as I am licensed in both states. I have worked for 7 years at a college counseling center, and so I know first-hand the many barriers to seeking help at your college's counseling center, and reasons why a college counseling center may not have been the right fit or positive experience for you. I am passionate about removing barriers to care, and providing you with the help and support you need while away at college, and home on breaks. I am a seasoned, experienced therapist, dedicated to helping my clients feel joy, hope, worthiness, and fulfillment. College can be a really difficult time and I am here to support you. My current clients see me as someone who is caring, calm, empathic, and goes the extra mile. I work hard to create a safe, trusting space where you can share freely. I am very experienced in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, trauma from a sexual assault or relationships violence, processing trauma from childhood, and current family boundary struggles, homesickness, feeling like your college is not the right fit, struggling to find your major/passion/career path, struggling around your sexuality or gender identity-or struggling with the many ways society/family makes it difficult to live out your authentic life, roommate struggles, struggles around making big life decisions during college, feeling like the "only" at your college related to race, or gender identity, sexuality or ethnicity or nationality, feeling lonely in college, and many more struggles that can make college challenging, and not what you hoped for or expected. These are just some of the struggles you might be experiencing in college, and I can help. I have a virtual-only practice. Even through the computer screen my clients report feeling that I am a warm, attentive, invested therapist. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you with whatever you are going through. You don’t have to go through this alone. Please know there is hope and healing in your future. You deserve care and help.

I appreciate the time you are taking to choose the best person and process for your specific needs. Being a college student requires a lot of difficult choices, and I know finding a counselor can be hard as well. Here are some thoughts about how I work, but please contact me if you have other questions. My goal as a counselor is to shape our work around the needs, goals, and overall direction you want to take in your life. If you have very focused, concrete issues you want to address, we’ll use a solution-focused approach to create plans and strategies for focused change and growth. If you have more broad, complicated things to address, we talk about a deeper purpose and meaning for your life that can serve as a foundation for more significant changes. No matter what you would like to talk about in counseling, we will capitalize on your strengths as a whole person to create the change you seek.

My name is Dr. Lindo, and it is a pleasure to meet you! I began my career as a school psychology with the hopes of helping children, adolescents, and young adults cope through times of stress. My overall goals and passions can be summed up as an agent for change - I hope to help clients develop the skills necessary to be effective agents in their own lives.

Throughout my practicum and professional experience, I have worked with a variety of needs, with a primary focus on anxiety-related disorders and depression.
