If you find yourself wrestling with overwhelming intrusive thoughts and exhausting compulsions, anxiety, body-focused repetitive behaviors, or specific phobias, I am here to guide you. I help clients courageously confront fears and challenge cognitive distortions of anxiety, seeking relief from intrusive thoughts and behaviors.
I am certified in ERP therapy, a highly effective approach for treating OCD. I help guide clients in gradually confronting their fears and triggers while refraining from engaging in compulsive behaviors. This process helps to rewire the brain's response to obsessions. I also utilize CBT, HRT and DBT when appropriate for anxiety and other disorders.
I offer a warm, empathetic environment where clients feel supported and understood. Together, we'll tailor our sessions to address your unique needs and goals, providing you with practical tools and strategies to manage your symptoms effectively. My goal is to empower you to break free from the constraints of any debilitating symptoms.
