About
I specialize in diagnosing and treating OCD and anxiety disorders. OCD can present in many different ways, often causing confusion, fear, shame, and a sense that one is "stuck" and all alone with distressing thoughts and compulsions. Yet, OCD is highly treatable, and I have helped thousands of persons regain a satisfying and joyful life where they - not their OCD - are in charge. I use specific, evidence-based techniques to help clients reach their treatment goals, leading them to develop the skills and confidence to overcome the obstacles to their peace of mind and joyful living. Clients need to feel heard, understood and supported. This is a first step in healing, and I offer a warm, collaborative, safe space to build trust as a foundation of treatment. I am highly experienced in Exposure Response Prevention, the gold standard of OCD treatment, and use CBT, DBT and ACT to address general anxiety, depression and relationship issues. Working on our mental health and personal growth takes courage and a desire to heal and evolve. It is central to our overall well-being and helps us face life's challenges from a place of strength and confidence vs hopelessness and fear. Feeling validated and supported, with an eye toward building one's sense of agency, is central to my therapy approach.
