About My Clients
I often work with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and compulsive behaviors. Many clients come to therapy feeling ashamed or confused about their thoughts, especially when the content feels disturbing or out of character. Whether your OCD involves checking, contamination fears, intrusive thoughts, or mental rituals, therapy can help you learn new ways of responding that reduce anxiety and restore a sense of control.
My Background and Approach
I am a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder. My work focuses on helping clients understand how OCD operates in the brain and how specific treatment approaches can reduce the intensity and frequency of obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. I use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), which are widely recognized as the most effective treatments for OCD. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and structured. Many clients appreciate having a therapist who understands the complexity of OCD and provides clear tools and strategies to help them break the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Therapy focuses on building skills and confidence so that OCD no longer dictates daily life.
More About the People I Treat
You might find yourself constantly checking things, seeking reassurance, repeating actions, or mentally reviewing situations to make sure everything is “safe” or “right.” Some people experience intrusive thoughts about harm, contamination, illness, relationships, or morality that feel disturbing or out of character. Others spend hours researching, asking for reassurance, or trying to neutralize uncomfortable thoughts. These experiences can feel isolating and frightening, but they are common patterns in OCD—and effective treatment exists. In our work together, we focus on learning practical skills that help you respond differently to intrusive thoughts and reduce compulsive behaviors. This often includes structured, evidence-based strategies designed specifically for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. While OCD can feel powerful, many people experience meaningful relief with the right treatment approach.
