With training in EFT and EMDR, as well as ERP, ACT, and CBT, I'm committed to walking alongside you on this journey.
Overthinking, overanalyzing, ruminating, future-tripping, or analysis paralysis—whatever you call it, it can really keep you stuck. If you've been lying awake at night thinking through all the things you said today (or last year), if you've made 8 different to-do lists for the same task, or if you're always running late because it's difficult to organize your thoughts, let's chat. Anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout can significantly impact the way your brain handles the stress of day-to-day life. But there is hope – you don’t have to stay stuck. I'd love to talk to you about how you can begin to feel like yourself again.

Are you exhausted from managing your emotions all day? Planning around triggers. Replaying conversations. Feeling overstimulated, reactive, or completely shut down. You may hold it together in some areas and unravel in others. Maybe you understand your patterns logically, but in the moment a part of you takes over and responds before you can think. You want to respond differently in the moment so your relationships and life feel more secure rather than chaotic.

I use Inference-Based CBT and ERP for OCD, CBT and REBT for anxiety and depression, and EMDR, IFS and Art Therapy for trauma.
Many people who come to therapy feel stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break—intrusive thoughts, anxiety loops, rumination about the past, or constant “what if” scenarios about the future. You may feel overwhelmed by worry, self-criticism, anger, or habits that keep pulling you back into the same cycle. I work with adults facing OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and unwanted behaviors who want to understand what’s happening in their minds and learn how to move forward with more clarity and control.

Many people come to therapy after experiences that have left them feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. This is especially common after traumatic life events such as difficult births, pregnancy or infant loss, injuries, or other experiences that can deeply impact a person’s sense of safety and identity. I specialize in helping individuals process trauma, including pregnancy and postpartum trauma, traumatic birth experiences, fertility challenges, and reproductive losses.

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Therapists
Do I need exposure and response prevention therapy?
Many clients decide to seek help for obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors when these symptoms are distressing enough to disrupt everyday life. Any thoughts or behaviors that cause friction in close relationships are also worth addressing. In addition, the client’s symptoms don’t have to be severe for them to benefit from ERP therapy.
Is exposure and response prevention therapy part of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Exposure and response prevention is one specific type of CBT that focuses on behavioral change in response to triggering stimuli. It is related to exposure therapy but adds an additional component of preventing compulsive and harmful responses.
How long does exposure and response prevention therapy take?
While every patient is different, exposure and response prevention therapy typically lasts around 12 sessions, although some treatments can take longer. A therapist will determine if the treatment is complete based on how the client faces their fears, particularly the strongest ones. When a client feels less anxiety about stimuli that once evoked terror or distress, that is generally an indication that they are nearing the end of ERP therapy.
What are the limitations of exposure and response prevention therapy?
The most common pitfalls of exposure and response prevention therapy include not addressing a client’s core fears, allowing the client to avoid their most distressing stimuli, and using imaginary exposure when the client requires real-life exposure (and vice versa). ERP therapy is most effective when the client commits to the full course of treatment; if the client stops early or doesn’t practice what they have learned outside of therapy sessions, they are less likely to have successful outcomes.
