Therapy for Stressed Out Grad Students

Therapy For Stressed Out Grad Students In Denver, CO And Ann Arbor, MI

IS LIFE AS A GRAD STUDENT EVEN CRAZIER THAN YOU EXPECTED?

Whether you are a grad student studying business, medicine, law, dentistry, social work, or in a PhD program, it can be a time of major overload and rigorous pressures. Many students experience anxiety, depression, loneliness or even panic during this intense and demanding time in their lives. 

Some of the things my clients struggle with include:

  • Adjustment with returning to student life
  • Anticipating entering the work force
  • Struggles with motivation and keeping up with the work load
  • Difficulty with decision-making about their future
  • Worrying about recruitment
  • Balancing academics and a social or romantic life
  • House mate tensions

HERE’S HOW I CAN HELP:

I help grad students find balance despite the pressures of campus life and enjoy this chapter while preparing for their future.

Student life can lead to confusing questions about your future, your goals and your sense of yourself. In addition to providing a safe and accepting space to help you process your emotions and decisions, I offer proven and effective skills needed to manage your anxiety and overwhelm. With these tools and a more positive perspective, my clients can successfully continue through their grad school years and regain enthusiasm for what lies ahead.
