Therapists for college students near 92093

I'm Lauryn (she/her), a Registered Dietitian who helps people with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, PCOS, disordered eating, and body image concerns, especially when those overlap. My clients aren't looking for another diet. They want support, knowledge, and a flexible plan that fits real life. I work from a weight-inclusive, intuitive eating, Health at Every Size (HAES) lens, shaped by my background in eating disorder care at the PHP/IOP and outpatient levels. Many of the people I work with are women of color, queer folks, and people in larger bodies who have spent years feeling judged or dismissed in medical spaces. Here you'll find no judgment: we'll improve your labs, energy, and blood sugar while you heal your relationship with food, keeping your culture, preferences, and values at the center. Ready to start?

Hi there! I’m Dajana Moore, RDN, CDCES, a bilingual Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist passionate about helping you feel confident, supported, and empowered as you navigate diabetes, hormonal health, and chronic disease management. My goal is to help you build sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle while giving you the knowledge and tools to take control of your health. My passion for nutrition comes from helping people feel more confident in managing their health through education, compassion, and personalized care. With years of experience providing both one-on-one and group diabetes education, I understand that lasting behavior change doesn’t happen overnight. My approach is patient centered, supportive, and collaborative, meeting you where you are and helping you make meaningful progress without judgment or pressure. I was born and raised in Costa Rica, where the values of family, community, and compassion shaped my approach to supporting others. As a bilingual professional, I am committed to providing culturally responsive care and education. I believe nutrition should feel practical, empowering, and personalized. Rather than focusing on perfection, I work alongside you to create realistic habits that support your long term health and fit into your everyday life. My areas of specialty include diabetes, prediabetes, insulin resistance, hormonal health, chronic disease management, and women’s health. Using evidence based nutrition guidance, motivational interviewing, and a coaching approach, I tailor each session to your unique goals, preferences, and experiences. Together, we’ll focus on building confidence, strengthening self management skills, improving medication adherence when appropriate, and creating sustainable lifestyle changes that help you feel your best. As a bilingual provider fluent in English and Spanish, I’m passionate about making nutrition education accessible, culturally responsive, and welcoming for every client. I strive to create a supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your health journey. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, staying active, and continuing to learn new ways to better support my clients. I’m excited to partner with you and help you discover that managing your health can feel achievable, sustainable, and tailored to your unique needs. Ready to start?

Hello! I'm Cecilia Cruz, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who helps people manage prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, heart health, and women's health while keeping the cultural foods they love on the table. I offer sessions in English and Spanish. My approach is rooted in the belief that food is medicine. I don't label foods as "good" or "bad," because those labels lead to shame and guilt. Before joining Diabetes Digital, I provided nutrition support to vulnerable and underserved communities in San Francisco through nonprofit work. As a Mexican American dietitian, I honor each person's culture and experience, and I'll guide you toward sustainable health goals that fit your life. Ready to start?

Have you ever felt like managing your health is a full-time job—especially when you’re juggling a million other things? Between conflicting nutrition advice, ever-changing health goals, and just getting dinner on the table, it’s a lot. I get it—because I’ve been there too. I’m Jessica, a Registered Dietitian, mom of two, and someone who’s been offering nutrition counseling since 2007. My interest in nutrition started in high school when I struggled with binge eating, diet culture, and a difficult relationship with my body. Over the years, my personal experiences—living with ADHD, navigating thyroid and autoimmune conditions, and managing preeclampsia and high blood sugar during pregnancy—have only deepened my empathy and shaped the way I support others. I specialize in helping people simplify food—whether that’s meal planning, grocery shopping, or creating sustainable routines that support your health without taking over your life. I’ve worked across private practice, public health, behavioral health, fitness resorts, and food service programs—but what I love most is working one-on-one with clients to find practical, personalized strategies that actually stick. These days, I work with people managing conditions like prediabetes, PCOS, gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol—especially those who feel overwhelmed by diet trends or unsure how to start. I offer neurodivergent-affirming care and have a special passion for supporting fellow ADHDers in developing realistic nutrition routines that meet them where they are. If you’re looking for an approach grounded in intuitive eating, weight-inclusive care, and compassion, you’re in the right place. I believe food should be a source of nourishment—not stress—and that everyone deserves to feel good in their body without chasing unrealistic ideals. With a focus on intuitive eating, my goal is to help clients build peace with food and their bodies, steering them away from the frustrations of yo-yo dieting and food-related mental struggles. I’m committed to guiding clients toward healthier, sustainable habits that allow them to enjoy food and meet their health goals. More about me: I love spending time with family and exploring new things that give a fun, dopamine-kick; be it starting a garden, playing a new sport, painting, thrifting, etc. When I’m not working, I’m chasing my two high-energy kids, experimenting in the kitchen or reading fantasy books on my kindle!What to expect: Sessions are collaborative, judgment-free, and tailored to your real life. You’ll leave with a plan that feels doable—even on the busiest days. Ready to start? Book a visit directly at https://diabetesdigital.co/start.

Flourish works best with students and young adults who may look like they’re doing well on the outside but feel stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck underneath it all. Many clients are navigating relationships, family expectations, identity, self-worth, academic or career pressure, major life transitions, or simply trying to figure out what they want their life to look like. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Our goal is to provide a genuine and authentic space where we can make sense of what’s going on, identify patterns that may be getting in your way, and develop practical ways to move toward the relationships and life you want.

I specialize in working with college students and emerging adults navigating relationships, anxiety, self-worth, family stress, and major life transitions. My clinical work is informed by my research and teaching on emerging adulthood, health, and relationships. In addition to being a licensed marriage and family therapist, I am a clinical supervisor and university professor in Child Development and Family Science, with particular expertise in romantic and family relationships.

Hi, I'm glad you're here. I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with several years of experience working with children, teens, and adults from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy should be tailored to your unique needs. My approach is warm, open-minded, and solution-focused, creating a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we'll build on your strengths, navigate challenges, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. Our first session is a chance to get to know one another, discuss what brought you to therapy, and identify goals that reflect your needs. Together, we'll build a trusting relationship and begin creating meaningful change.

Maybe you’ve been feeling unlike yourself lately. You might be dealing with anxiety, low mood, trouble focusing, poor sleep, or simply feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to start. College can bring its own set of challenges, from academic pressure and major life transitions to relationships, independence, and figuring out what comes next. Maybe you’ve tried to push through it on your own, but you know something needs to change. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adults and college students to better understand what’s going on and find a treatment approach that feels right for them. I take the time to look at the whole picture rather than focusing only on a diagnosis or a list of symptoms. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, women’s mental health, and PMDD. I want you to feel comfortable being honest about what you’re experiencing and involved in decisions about your care. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more like yourself again.

I hold engaging in this work as the greatest privilege. I work with clients to help them make meaning and transform the often overwhelming, distressing, and confusing life experiences we all face. I use humor, honesty, perception, and compassion to create the space that will help us access the most lively and generative core of your self that is often overshadowed by relationship struggles, trauma, and other life transitions. Maybe you've found your way here because you haven't felt yourself lately. Perhaps things are feeling just out of reach in your relationships or school work. Possibly the world is feeling loud, lonely, and difficult to navigate. Or maybe, you're curious to understand more about your internal world. Whatever the reason, you are welcome here.​​ It takes great courage to be in this work. Just by finding yourself here, you're already on your way. Together, we will find a road through. ​
