Therapists for college students near 27705

Life doesn't have to feel so hard. You may be anxious, insecure, worried, depressed, lost, or stuck. Maybe you're preoccupied with food & your body. Or stressed out trying to be perfect & get it right, but it always feels like you're falling behind. Maybe your relationships are unsatisfying or you're having less-than-ideal sex. You can't quite put your finger on the problem, but you know that life just feels like a drag right now. You don't have to keep struggling. No matter what's going on, you can make positive changes that improve your life. You deserve to feel joyful, confident, & free. I want to help you get there.

Sometimes we can feel as if on a mountaintop with a sense of clarity and other times in a valley unable to see the next step. Life is a journey with experiences and seasons where we can all use some help along the way. Whether it be marriage, dating, work, friendships, or family dynamics, relationships can be complex. Through life's complexities we can learn and grow. I believe everyone deserves to experience joy and live an abundant life. By living authentically to ourselves and others we can become the best version of ourselves. My desire is to meet you where you are and collaboratively work with you to reach your full potential. My experience includes addiction counseling, grief work, mens issues, couples counseling, trauma counseling, veteran-specific counseling, and working with adolescents on behavioral issues in their family system. I can also provide music therapy as a board-certified music therapist. Creating change is an active choice and one that is empowering and takes courage to implement. At times we all need help, especially when life gets complex and problems occur. I can relate to life's complexity and extend empathy in your process. My goal is to walk alongside you and provide tools with the mindset that you are the expert of your own life.

Panacea Mental Wellness Practice Values P – Person Centered A – Affirming N – Nurturing A – Authentic C – Collaborating E – Empowering A – Accountability Panacea Mental Wellness, PLLC provides an affirming place for folx to create their authentic lives. Together, we focus on clients’ strengths so they can overcome low self-confidence and experience the life they deserve. Whether this is your first time ever in therapy or the millionth therapist you have reached out to, you are taking the time to find the best fit. I’m Dana, and I help folx just like you: ones that have it within them to be true to who they are and just want some support to get there. The clients I work with have dealt with some tough $hit. I help my clients find confidence and self-compassion by equipping them with the tools they need to unmask and live authentically. My clients describe me as making them feel “normal” and that they wish we had met as friends. Together, we will focus on what is important to you. In a world that often feels like it was not made for you, this is a place when you can show up authentically. I know that everyone wants something different in therapy, so I stay flexible and adjust to your needs. At the end of each session, I ask for your feedback so I can make the next session better. I am dedicated to helping people find their true selves again. As someone who is in therapy themself, I recognize the importance of the therapeutic alliance. My background and training as a Certified Peer Support Specialist means I am a human first and foremost. I became a therapist because I wanted to contribute to changing the system by decolonizing it from the inside. I use the privilege that comes with the education I received and research I have done to help you with assessments, accommodation requests, and letters of support in addition to ongoing therapy for individuals, couple/ relationships, families, and groups. You want to know you’re working with someone who “gets” it, right? I get it because in different ways, I’ve lived it myself. I know how tough it can be to feel down and want to get that confidence back. So when we work together, you won’t just get a trained therapist. You’ll get someone who truly understands what you’re going through.

Getting started can be overwhelming. My goal is to help you feel as comfortable as possible so we can go at your pace. I specialize in working with clients with anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and addiction. Many of my clients have tried to cope with difficult life changes by pushing their feelings away or finding short-term coping mechanisms that serve as a distraction. My role is to help people listen to and manage their emotions without feeling overwhelmed or ruled by them. Being personally in recovery from alcohol helps me understand and empathize with what you’re going through because I’ve probably been there too. I like to break down clinical approaches to collaboratively determine the best fit for each person’s unique goals. I incorporate elements of neurobiology, cognitive behavioral therapy, and schema work to help people better understand themselves and make meaningful changes in their lives. If you're not sure what you're looking for yet, that's okay! Feel free to reach out to set up an introductory phone call to see if we're a good fit.

Meet with me in my cozy office in Winston-Salem, NC or join me virtually from the comfort of your home. This space is for the questioners, deep feelers, critical thinkers, artists, muses, queerfolk, neurodivergent minds, and the beautifully complex. In session, I meet you exactly where you are, without judgment, as we gently explore the patterns shaping your life.

Together, we will cultivate compassion so you can reconnect, soften, and begin to truly love the person looking back at you.

My goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients are able to explore issues and improve the quality of their lives. I use an integrative style of psychotherapy that pulls from many different approaches with an emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My work with clients is based on a collaborative approach that promotes a strong alliance and allows for open and honest communication. Within this foundation, clients develop the safety and freedom to challenge behaviors and beliefs and discover new attitudes that promote change.

Warmly, Sandy Mahar

Hello! Are you finding that college isn't quite what you thought it would be? I get it...it's a tough transition and a steep learning curve. Anxiety, homesickness, some grief, comparison, high expectations, new ways of communicating, living on your own, conflict with roommates, and that might only describe the first semester! There are then decisions to make about your interests, to study abroad or not, where to intern, what organizations and extracurriculars to get involved in, feeling too stretched for time and unable to manage all responsibilities well, the stress of a job or your athletic demands. You don't have to navigate this alone––I can help! I specialize in helping students navigate these issues and more through a lens of self-compassion, skill-building, and a sense of empowerment. These issues are not unique to you and you can learn to build resilience and tools that will help you now and in your future.

Our team works with people located in both Connecticut and Massachusetts, and specializes in work with college students and young adults.

We also help support students struggling with transitions, life decisions, social stress and the other challenges of the college years. We would be honored to meet you and support you through this time!
