Depression, PTSD, and substance use can make it hard to feel connected—to others, to the world, and even to yourself. When you're caught in the heaviness of these experiences, it can feel like no one truly sees what you're carrying. My decision to become a therapist was shaped by watching loved ones navigate both substance use and mental health challenges. I wanted to understand their pain and learn how to offer the kind of support that truly makes a difference. I hold an MA in Clinical Psychology with an Emphasis in Latino Mental Health from Antioch University (2017) and work with teens and adults ages 14+.

If you’re like many of my clients, you may feel exhausted from battling your thoughts and anxiety all day long. You might find yourself stuck in obsessive loops, chasing a sense of certainty and control. Maybe you replay conversations, double-check texts, or search endlessly for answers online. And even when you get temporary relief, it never lasts, another fear eventually surfaces, and the cycle begins again. For others, the weight of trauma or grief makes everything feel heavier: memories that won’t settle, emotions that surge unexpectedly, or a sense of being overwhelmed by what you’ve been through or lost.

Intimate partner violence, Sexual Assault is a real problem. (7 out of 10) The shame and torture of the untold story. Crying when no one is looking. Wine, multiple partners, pills, hiding.

Swept under the rug by humiliation, hopelessness and in despair, cold and without reprieve. Less than whole, desperate to know that there is an end that doesn’t end it all.

Hoarding Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?
Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.
How long does therapy for hoarding take?
Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.
Are there medications for hoarding?
The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.
Can hoarding come back after treatment?
Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
