I specialize in helping people struggling with obsessive compulsive disorder ( OCD), panic attacks, phobias, overthinking, worrying, rumination, and OCD-related problems like body-focused receptive behaviors ( skin picking, hair pulling).
My primary approaches are ERP — the gold-standard CBT therapy for OCD and many forms of anxiety — and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), alongside psychodynamic (depth-oriented) therapy where relevant. The therapy approach we use depends on you and your goals.

I offer both therapy and psychoeducational assessment for children, teens, and young adults. My approach is warm, genuine, collaborative, and strengths-based. In therapy, I draw from CBT, exposure-based and solution-focused approaches. In assessment, I focus on understanding the whole person—not just scores or a diagnosis.

To me, therapy is about the person sitting across from me. Together, we can collaboratively explore and influence your past, present and hopes for the future. For everything, including your thoughts, behaviors and emotions. My goal is helping clients identify and work towards meaningful change. As human beings, we all possess an inherent yearning for connection, as we enter this world entirely reliant on others. Through helping clients achieve their goals, I strive to improve their connections and increase their resilience against the challenges of life.

I have extensive training treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
People are often at a point in life where they realize that change needs to occur in order to promote psychological well being. I work with clients to identify their unique skills and facilitate change at their own pace. I offer services to children, teens, adults, and the elderly.
The statement that drives my life view is: "Life is colourful and constantly changing." Nature appears to attest to this philosophy as well with the four seasons of colors and changes. With every season, life (and death) ebbs and flows, always towards what is to come...whatever that may be.

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.
