I provide a non-judgmental environment where the focus is never on blame, but on understanding the mechanics of why these loops keep repeating and how to actively fix them.

For over a decade, I've helped people recover from the impacts of trauma, and these experiences have helped me develop a broad set of skills to help people through a range of psychological problems, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, anger, OCD, adjustment to major life transitions, grief and loss, and relationship difficulties.
People come to therapy for lots of different reasons - whether it's worrying about different things, having trouble sleeping, or just feeling unhappy, stressed, or stuck. I believe all of these problems can be invitations to look deeper within ourselves, to uncover what really matters to us, the values and meanings that guide our choices, and the parts of ourselves that need our care and attention. Therapy can be a space to explore these questions, to sit with uncertainty, and to begin finding ways to live more fully, even when life feels messy or overwhelming.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, and sertraline, among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
