I'm a college professor at Fordham University in the psychology department. I specialize in working with college students experiencing anxiety (including social anxiety, OCD, worry, panic, phobias, and more). I graduated from Duke University with a psychology major and I have a PhD in clinical psychology from UCLA. I usually work from a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) orientation, which is the top evidence-based approach for many forms of anxiety, but this can be flexible depending on client needs & preferences. Please get in touch to learn more about my practice!

Using an integrative approach, my therapeutic style is grounded in compassion, honesty, humor, and humility. I work with individuals of all ages, but specialize in working with college-age adults. Individual therapy sessions are provided for 45-minutes/session, usually scheduled on a weekly basis. These weekly sessions lay the foundation for a strong therapeutic relationship, help with learning new skills, and create important momentum so you can experience relief and reach your therapy goals. We will work together to acknowledge and understand your past experiences and begin to re-affirm your feelings of personal worth. I also provide full and partial psychological evaluations, diagnostic evaluations (ADHD, mood, anxiety, learning, autism, developmental disorders), and educational evaluations. Assessments can be structured to measure social functioning, personality, memory, language, learning, and attention, or to provide diagnostic clarity. Individualized recommendations provided will support and facilitate growth, helping to set the path for success.

I have been working in college, young adult, and adult mental health for 20 years. I am board-certified in the treatment that works best in most cases, behavioral and cognitive therapy (CBT). Therapy works best if you have a strong relationship with the person treating you. I look forward to the chance to try.

Adulting is hard! The decisions you face about school, work and relationships can be confusing. You may be struggling with alcohol or other substance use. With compassion and without judgment, I'll help you figure out if it's causing a problem for you. During my years as a therapist, I've helped people with mental and emotional health problems, such as depression, anxiety, trauma and family issues. I really enjoy working with young adults and helping them answer questions about who they are, what they want to do and where they want to go in life. I'll help you navigate life transitions and work with you on your discovery to create your best self.

You're smart. You've always figured things out. So why does it feel like your emotions are the one thing you can't get a handle on? Maybe you've got the grades, the group chat, the schedule packed with things you're "supposed" to want... and still find yourself lying in bed at 2am wondering why everything feels so heavy. That's actually exactly the kind of thing I work on with you in therapy. I'm Mallory Grimste, LCSW, a therapist based in Branford, CT who specializes in working with teens, college students, and young adults who are emotionally overwhelmed and high-achieving at the same time. (Yes, both. It's more common than you think.) I use a DBT-informed approach, which basically means I teach real, practical strategies- the kind you can actually use when you're about to crash out before a big exam or spiraling after a hard conversation. We can work on anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, and navigating relationships — including the one you have with yourself. My clients don't just feel better in session. They leave treatment feeling more confident in who they are, more capable of handling the hard stuff, and genuinely proud of how far they've come. I offer telehealth sessions in Connecticut and New York, and in-person sessions in Branford, CT. If that sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd love to connect. 👉 Learn more and apply to work together: mallorygrimste.com/counseling-services

If anxiety, relationship conflict, or adjusting to being a college student or soon-to-be graduate are weighing you down, you don’t have to go through it alone. Many of my clients feel stuck, unheard, or overwhelmed by responsibilities before coming to therapy. Together, we’ll work toward clarity, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of self. I specialize in helping college students navigate anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and relationship stress. Using practical strategies (CBT, mindfulness, family systems) alongside deep relational work, I’ll support you in breaking old patterns and creating lasting change. Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and focused on insight and action. I draw from CBT, mindfulness, structural & family systems approaches to help you understand patterns, build coping tools, and create more balance. Whether you’re an individual working on anxiety and self-esteem or a couple wanting to improve communication, I’ll tailor therapy to you. If you're done with the people-pleasing and want to feel more at ease, I’m accepting new clients in New York and Connecticut (online only). I accept multiple insurances and can provide a superbill if I am out-of-network with your insurance. Call or email today to schedule your free 15-minute consultation—let’s see if we’re a good fit.

You don’t have to struggle with mental health issues alone. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with experience in co-occurring care, I support adults navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, mood instability, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anger management, life changes, and emotional overwhelm. I look forward to being your partner in care, leading you closer to the happy, healthy life you deserve. My goal is to help you develop healthy coping skills and deepen self-awareness through care that's tailored to you. I take a compassionate, non-judgmental, and collaborative approach designed to help you understand your emotional patterns, learn practical tools, and create meaningful, lasting change. When working together, you are empowered to achieve this change in an encouraging and supportive environment that uses evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychotherapy. I believe meaningful change begins with authentic therapeutic relationships, a belief that grew out of my own experience in therapy that taught me the value of a partner who empowers you to be your best self. By meeting patients where they are in my practice now, I partner with them in self-exploration and healing to support a purposeful and fulfilling life. To stay centered and balanced in my time outside the office, I enjoy exercising, yoga, and spending time with family and friends.
