I’m Allie Kessel, a licensed clinical social worker, dedicated to helping teens, young adults, and adults who struggle with OCD, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. I take an integrative approach, blending evidence-based practices with somatic techniques to address both the mind and body, providing support for racing thoughts, intense emotions, and physical discomfort. I focus on providing education, teaching actionable skills, cultivating self-compassion, and helping my clients grow into the best versions of themselves.
In our first few sessions, you can expect education about how and why symptoms of OCD, anxiety, and depression occur, guidance on responding effectively to these symptoms, and a listening ear to better understand your unique experiences.
I’m passionate about this work because I’ve seen firsthand how therapy can transform lives. Supporting my clients’ journeys toward healing and empowerment brings me immense joy and purpose.

I often use Exposure Therapy (ERP) in addition to somatic techniques in my practice. We'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. Together, you and I will look at how your thoughts and emotions impact your experiences. I'll help you learn how to work with yourself to feel a sense of peace.
