Connect with OCD Therapy
I help people living with OCD—especially those overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, rituals, or mental checking that won’t switch off. Many of my clients have tried therapy before but felt misunderstood or unsure if it was really OCD. I get it—not just professionally, but personally. I know how isolating and exhausting it can be to keep things hidden while trying to hold life together. If you're ready to face OCD differently—with honesty, direction, and real tools—we can do that work together.
I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) as a foundation, tailoring it to your unique needs. I also draw from ACT, CBT, and compassion-based approaches to help you face fears, reduce distress, and reconnect with what matters.
If you’ve tried therapy before and felt stuck or discouraged, please know that you're not alone. My goal is to make OCD treatment more understandable, more human, and more effective — for everyone.

I work with adults who are struggling with OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, and intrusive thoughts. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by doubt or mental noise, or stuck in therapy that hasn't worked. In our initial sessions, we'll clarify what's getting in the way and develop a plan that fits your life and goals. I draw on ERP and integrative approaches to help you move toward the life you want.
