Navigating College Life with Support

College can be an exciting time of growth and opportunity, but it can also bring overwhelming stress, anxiety, and uncertainty. Balancing academics, social life, work, and future career decisions can feel like a lot. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, or adjusting to independence, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

At Reach Counseling, we specialize in supporting college students through the ups and downs of young adulthood. Whether you’re a first-year student adjusting to the transition, a senior preparing for post-grad life, or somewhere in between, therapy can help you build confidence, gain clarity, and develop tools to manage stress.
