Are those obsessions and rituals getting the better of you? Have you been struggling with skin picking or hair pulling and just don’t know where to turn? Do you experience distressing appearance concerns? You may be one of the many with OCD or a related disorder struggling to find a specialist or languishing on a long waitlist. I have been specializing in this area for over a decade and can provide you tailored medication recommendations so you can finally gain the control you seek. While I won’t be prescribing your medications, you can bring my recs back to your primary care doc or psychiatric prescriber for implementation.
A comprehensive consultation can be an excellent way just to get a treatment course on the right track or to get a second opinion. Many with OCD and related disorders find their conditions require a highly specialized approach which may not be familiar to most.
As Medical Director of the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Center for OCD and Related Disorders and Director of Pharmacology in the MGH Excoriation Clinic, I have the expertise that can help. My wait time is typically under 3 weeks and I offer convenient video meetings. I look forward to working together to get you feeling better!
