College May Be Stressful, But Therapy Doesn't Have to Be
You're in college. You're supposed to be having the time of your life, right? But, classes are challenging, you may be away from home for the first time, money is tight, and your social life is...complicated. Perhaps, you're having a hard time focusing, you're easily agitated, or you're just not sleeping well. You may feel like you're not doing college "right."
Maybe, you're struggling with your relationships, whether it's with your parents, roommates, or romantic partners. You may be questioning your sexuality, or you're having a hard time finding your identity. You might be facing difficult decisions about your future, and you may be feeling overwhelmed by the thought of life after college. You just know this is not what you expected college to be like. And you want to make some changes.
Why Someone Might Seek Therapy for College Students
As a college student, there are plenty of sources of stress in your life. But, this doesn't mean that you have to suffer through it alone. In fact, you may find that therapy is a helpful way to deal with the challenges you're facing.
Some reasons why someone might seek therapy as a college student include:
Experiencing anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues
Struggling with relationships
Dealing with sexuality or identity issues
Facing academic decisions
Coping with thoughts and worries about the future
Managing financial stress
Improving self-esteem
Just like there are many different people in college, there are many different reasons why someone might seek therapy. And that's okay. Therapy will be different for everyone, depending on what you want to work on and what your goals are.

Or, struggling with being away from home. With our therapists' support and time, they were able to learn ways to cope with their challenges and make the changes they wanted to see in their lives. Whether that was by communicating better with their parents, exploring their sexuality, or improving their academic performance.
Our Approach to Therapy for College Students
Our approach to therapy for college students is by knowing being a college student is hard. There is a lot of pressure that the students face. From their professors, their peers, and even themselves.

We also understand how hectic a college schedule can be. This is why we offer online therapy, as well as therapy sessions that can be done in person.
