LifeSpring: Your Community Partner in Mental Health
At LifeSpring, we understand the unique experiences of college students. Our therapists are here to provide a supportive space where you can discuss your concerns openly and develop strategies to thrive during your college years. We find that college students often appreciate an honest, outside perspective from someone who isn’t a friend or family member. Counseling is a place where you can ask your most personal questions, and get support where you need it!

Common Concerns We Address with College Students in Maryland
Academic Pressure: Struggling to keep up with coursework in demanding programs like social work, public health, or engineering? Our therapists can help you address the challenges you’re facing.
Identity and Belonging: Navigating your personal identity within the rich cultural tapestry of an HBCU can be both empowering and challenging. We're here to support you in exploring these aspects and finding your place within the community. One of the great things about college is that it’s a time to try on new aspects of our identity, and also, sometimes we wrestle with the new information we’re learning in college. The stretching or learning curves in college can be rewarding, but challenging, and we’re here to help you reflect on your lived experiences, intersecting identities, and the relationships that you’re exploring or rethinking.
Social Isolation: Even in a bustling campus environment, it's possible to feel lonely and disconnected. Our counselors can assist you in building meaningful relationships and enhancing your social experience. After all, college often means leaving behind friends and family members who have been our social supports, transitioning to lots of new faces, and finding your new friends. It can also mean that we experience shifts in our relationships with family and friends at home.
Post-Pandemic Adjustments: The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the college experience. We're here to help you adapt and find balance in this new landscape.
What Would Stop You From Getting the Support You Need?
Seeking therapy can be an empowering decision. It means taking charge of your health and well-being! We love that many of our college students have a more positive attitude about accessing mental health therapy, and yet, we recognize that stigma still exists. Seeking therapy, even when we’ve been on the receiving end of messages designed to stop us from getting help (i.e. “You just need to pray about it,” or “Don’t air out the family laundry.”) can take real courage!! But….when you seek therapy and start making changes, others get to see a positive difference in you. When others see that something has changed (for the better), they’ll want to know what you’ve been doing too! Sometimes we are the FIRST in our families to show that there’s a new way of doing things!
