About My Clients

I specialize in treating OCD and Related Disorders (Body-Focused Repetitive Disorders, Illness Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, and Specific Phobias). My work centers around profoundly changing your relationship with anxiety, finding relief and freedom from the tremendous suffering you have been enduring. OCD and anxiety limit your life; Together, our work will lead to your life becoming fuller and truly embody your values/goals.

My Background and Approach

My approach is driven by best practices and research. Do what works, right? As the leading, effective treatment for OCD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is at the heart of my practice. With ERP, new learning takes place in the brain and makes getting "unstuck" from OCD a reality, one you very much deserve so you can thrive and show up as your true self. Add in some Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Skills Training, and Mindfulness and you have a road map to recovery. I am a professional member of the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF) and a graduate of their Behavioral Therapy Training Institute (BTTI). An experienced therapist of nine years, I have extensive knowledge with mood and other anxiety disorders. My energy and passion for OCD treatment grew out of witnessing clients’ colossal courage in treatment and living life on their own terms again.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My practice is dedicated to empowering clients to take action and choose courage over their OCD and anxiety. Our collaboration will result in equipping you with the knowledge, skills, and new mindset to enter meaningful recovery.
