Therapists for college students near University of Pennsylvania
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and empowering. I support college students as they navigate life transitions, build self-awareness, and discover their strengths. I believe healing and growth begin with genuine connection—one built on trust, empathy, and mutual respect. In our work together, I create a safe, inclusive space where you can explore challenges such as stress, anxiety, academic pressure, identity, relationships, and life direction. I honor neurodiversity and use a strengths-based, solution-focused approach that helps you tap into your own insight and resilience. Whether you’re managing change, redefining your goals, or learning to care for your mental well-being, my role is to help you build clarity, confidence, and a sense of balance as you move forward.

I am so glad that you are taking an important step towards your goals. My name is Dr. Lei (pronounced /lay/) Wang (/wong/) and my pronouns are she/her/她. I am originally from Taipei, Taiwan. I received my M.Ed. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Missouri and my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Indiana University Bloomington. I am a Licensed Psychologist and I offer in-person therapy on Tuesdays on Squirrel Hill in Pittsburgh, PA and telehealth on Wednesdays and Thursdays within PSYPACT states. I provide bilingual therapy in English and Mandarin Chinese. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients to overcome most presenting issues (i.e., anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, identity exploration) and specialize in short-term therapy, career counseling, working with university/college population (students, staff, and faculty), and individuals coming from historically marginalized communities (i.e., students of color/BIPOC, international/immigrant students, LGBTQIA+). I also have experience working with clients who are themselves in the field of mental health. I take a strengths-based, multicultural, and client-centered approach to therapy. I value collaborating with clients to determine goals, direction of therapy, and homework between sessions. I honor my clients’ diverse backgrounds and experiences. I provide tools, such as CBT and mindfulness techniques, so that clients can feel more confident and thrive. -- 您好！歡迎來到王磊老師的頁面。我來自臺灣。從臺灣師範大學的心理與輔導學系畢業後，我在密蘇里大學拿到諮商心理碩士，並於印地安納大學拿到諮商心理博士。我有超過十年提供諮商的經驗。我目前持有賓州的心理師執照和PsyPact，因此可以接受身在四十州的案主（請查看地圖確認您的地點是否符合https://psypact.org/mpage/psypactmap）。 我主要的工作對象屬於高等教育/大學的學生（大學生、碩士生、博士生）、教授，以及其他工作人員。我的專長包括協助亞裔、LGBTQ+、國際生，和其他在美國的弱勢族群。我可以協助的議題包括：學習/生涯議題、人際關係與環境適應、情緒困擾（焦慮、煩躁、憂鬱等）、跨文化、性別取向與性議題、理財、價值觀探索等。我透過多元文化、正向心理學、認知行為治療、人際歷程取向治療、焦點治療，等架構或治療法來協助案主檢視自己、嘗試做出不同的決定、跨出下一步，甚至重新找回人生目標。每個人在人生的路途中都會碰到一些問題、低潮或壓力。身為諮商心理師，透過談話，我能夠協助您了解自己的想法和情緒，探索問題發生的原因和歷程，發掘潛藏的內在力量，進而找到解決問題的方法。 因為我多數使用引導的方式諮商（以問問題居多），通常跟我工作受益最多的案主是願意平時反思、完成功課，以及準備好每次想談論的議題。 諮商的談話內容以及您的個人資料都將依據心理師法做保密，讓您安心地暢所欲言。歡迎聯絡我！
Hey there! I’m Sonya, a Board Certified Art Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, and Board Certified Transgender Care Specialist licensed in Pennsylvania. I enjoy working with members of the LGBTQIA2+ community and specialize in providing gender affirming care to gender expansive, non-binary and trans individuals, as well as BIPOC individuals with diverse multicultural and racial backgrounds and those from the diaspora. I am a child of immigrants, "third-culture kid", and specialize in working with first and second generation immigrants and racial and cultural minority members who have been impacted by harmful cultural narratives, intergenerational trauma, and who have experiences feeling “othered.” I am guided by a feminist and person centered approach that prioritizes an exploration of our intersecting identities, and value the healing power of exploratory and respectful conversation that acknowledges the effects oppression and colonialism have on mental health. I approach therapy from a lens of non-judgmental curiosity and strive to bring humility, humor and creativity into our shared space. I utilize art making and expressive therapies to help facilitate greater self-acceptance, self-confidence, personal growth, and to empower you to create positive change. I believe art making has the power to heal and the magic to transform. My goal is to create a safe, affirming and warm environment for you and if you’d like, to guide you in the art making process to help you feel empowered to create change. I hope to make your journey in therapy validating, supportive, and strive to make you feel heard, understood, and accepted. It would be an honor and privilege to work with you.

Hannah is an LCSW and specializes in trauma and ADHD. She is able to provide independent ADHD diagnostic evaluations and ongoing therapy.
Many of the clients I see are dealing with some form of anxiety, depression, adjustment-related issue, or life transition. Most often, my clients are young adults who are having problems in interpersonal relationships, such as feeling extremely anxious in social situations, having difficulty finding or maintaining healthy relationships, struggling to communicate effectively with others, or experiencing uncertainty what their wants and needs are in a relationship. I have a great deal of experience working with students. My internship and postdoc were both in a university counseling center, and afterward, I was a psychology professor for a number of years. In these roles, I worked with both undergraduate and graduate students. Therefore, I'm very familiar with the challenges that students can face. Whatever it is that is getting in the way, I can help! I utilize evidence-based approaches and methods that have been proven to work. However, because there is no single approach that works for every person across all situations, I practice in a way that will be responsive to your unique needs. We may work on identifying problematic thoughts, putting new behaviors into action, or learning how to better identify, express, and manage your emotions. If your concern is relationship-related, we will explore your relationship patterns, identify factors that are having a negative impact on your relationships, and help you develop the skills to find and maintain healthy, fulfilling relationships. Regardless of the specifics, I place a prime emphasis on providing a safe, supportive environment that is free from judgment. My style has been described as highly collaborative.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist and ADHD specialist who can help you develop real strategies that are proven to work in order to better manage your workload, productivity, truly understand your needs, and develop healthy relationships.

Seeking a therapist is a courageous first step. My hope is that through the therapeutic relationship we can understand what motivates you and how to overcome the barriers you may face. I have extensive experience working with children, adults, couples, and families that face a variety of concerns from ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, adjustment issues, and stress management. My strengths-based, person-centered approach incorporates evidence-based modalities to provide a comprehensive approach to healing and growing through your therapy experience.
I’m not your “just nod and validate everything” therapist. I have a B.S. from Penn State and an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (Children, Adolescents, and Trauma) from Lock Haven—but more importantly, I meet you where you are, not where you “should” be. I use person-centered and parts work, but I’m flexible and tailor therapy to what actually works for you. I love working with teens and young adults, but if you’ve got a brain and feelings, we’ll get along. I’m direct, I use humor, and I’ll call you out (with care). I’m here to help you grow—even when it’s uncomfortable. My style? Person-centered and parts work at the core, with flexibility built in. I adjust, pivot, and pull from different approaches based on what actually helps you, not what sounds the most clinical or impressive. I want all of my clients to walk into my room and feel as though they are sitting down with a friend, not a professional. I focus heavily on building rapport, getting to know you as an individual and not just as "my client." We will laugh, cry, process, and cope together in your mental wellness journey!

My therapeutic approach is informed by my background in meditation, Eastern contemplative philosophy, and evolutionary psychology. I work with clients to establish a treatment plan that is uniquely sensitive to their particular clinical needs and concerns. Some of the most common techniques I employ focus on the important relationship between body and mind; these experiential, somatic, and cognitive interventions allow for critical shifts in perspective that promote meaningful and enduring behavioral change.

If anxiety feels like it’s running your life or your relationship feels stuck in painful patterns, you’re not alone. Many of the individuals and couples I work with feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. I’m Anna Clemente, and I offer a warm, supportive space where we can slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and build healthier ways of coping and communicating. Many of my clients are thoughtful people who appear to be managing well on the outside but internally feel anxious, stuck, or disconnected. I specialize in anxiety and couples work, using a systemic and relational approach to help clients understand patterns that keep them feeling stuck. With couples, I focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional connection using the Gottman Method and EFT, while integrating CBT and IFS when helpful. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s important to find someone who feels like the right fit. If you’re curious about working together, I’d be happy to connect for a brief consultation to answer any questions and see if it feels like a good match. You’re welcome to reach out by inquiry or text whenever you feel ready.
