NYU Is Intense!
You Don’t Have to Handle It Alone.

Support for anxiety, perfectionism, impostor syndrome, and the pressure of what comes next.

Feeling overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’re failing — it means you’re human.

Founder Statement

Leonard Citron MA, LMHC
Partner | Senior Therapist

As an NYU alum and current adjunct professor, I know how intense the NYU experience can be. NYU students and faculty are ambitious, thoughtful, and driven. But that drive can sometimes come with anxiety, perfectionism, and self-doubt. Whether it’s impostor syndrome, or uncertainty about what comes next, support is closer than you think.

You can book online, or email me directly and I’ll help connect you with the right therapist at leonard@privatetherapy.com.

SIMPLE & ACCESSIBLE

Getting help shouldn’t be complicated.

If you have:
● NYU Student Health Insurance (Cigna / Wellfleet)
● NYU Faculty Aetna plans

You’re covered.

We handle all the insurance paperwork so you can focus on what matters: feeling better and moving forward.

No NYU insurance? You’re still welcome here.
