About My Clients

I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, OCD, intrusive thoughts, and phobias—including fear of flying. Using evidence-based approaches like ERP, ACT, and EMDR, I help clients break out of cycles of fear and avoidance and move toward a fuller life. My approach is supportive, practical, and grounded in real change. You’re invited to come to therapy exactly as you are—no perfection needed, just a willingness to begin.

What I Specialize In

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders, OCD, and phobias, and this work is a true focus of my practice—not just one item on a long list. While many therapists mention anxiety and OCD among a broad range of concerns, these conditions require specific, evidence-based approaches and deeper clinical understanding to treat effectively. I have extensive training in ERP, ACT, and EMDR, and I continually refine my skills to provide care that is both specialized and up to date. My work is centered on helping clients break free from cycles of fear, avoidance, and intrusive thoughts, and move toward a more flexible, meaningful life. This level of focus allows me to offer targeted, effective treatment for those who may have felt stuck or misunderstood in more general therapy settings.

Why I am a Good Fit for You

The clients who tend to be the best fit for my work are those who feel ready to make a meaningful change, even if they still feel anxious or unsure. You may feel stuck in patterns of worry, avoidance, or intrusive thoughts, and part of you knows something needs to shift. You don’t need to have it all figured out—you just need a willingness to try something different. Because the work I do is active and evidence-based, it often involves facing fears gradually and building new ways of responding to anxiety. This can feel uncomfortable at times, but it’s also where real change happens. My clients are typically open to learning new skills, practicing between sessions, and staying engaged in the process. If you’re looking for more than just talking about your anxiety—and are ready to begin changing your relationship with it—you’ll likely find this work to be a good fit.
