About My Clients

Does your anxiety, OCD, or possibly both feel like a roller coaster ride? Do you suffer from panic attacks? Perhaps you're scared you will hurt someone. Often anxiety and OCD feel out of one's control, which can lead to rituals or avoidance of situations, thoughts, images, or sensations. Avoidance is understandable and anxiety's best friend, but over time it actually has the opposite effect and manifests your symptoms. My clients are teens/adults/college students/pregnant or postpartum women.

My Background and Approach

OCD and anxiety disorders are treatable! I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, designed just for OCD and other anxiety disorders like panic, phobias, and social anxiety. ERP works by slowly introducing you to elements (thoughts, images, situations, sensations) that you fear until you are comfortable while learning healthy ways and coping skills to manage behaviors that interfere with wellness. With my support and your hard work, you can transform your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/Exposure and Response Prevention anxiety/OCD certification. Perinatal (pregnancy and postpartum) training. Certified in Trauma-Informed Counseling.
