I utilize ERP when treating anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, & phobias.
Finding a therapist can be confusing and overwhelming, and I hope to make this process easier for you. My job is to help you make sense of what has happened to you, why you feel the way you do, and why you can’t stop or start a certain behavior. I view folks within the context of a greater whole, meaning I not only treat individuals, but am also extensively trained to work with couples and families as well. I have years of experience treating anxiety, OCD, phobias, depression, trauma, emotional dysregulation, and conflict within marriages and families.

From the outside, you seem to have it all. You are highly accomplished, driven, and reliable. You have what others call a “successful life,” but the truth is you don’t feel the same on the inside. You constantly worry about the worst things that can happen. Your thoughts deplete & deprive you of joy. You try to keep it all together, but despite your best efforts, thoughts leave you feeling exhausted, unable to focus, and unmotivated and snap at the people you love. You have given so much to everyone, and your needs always come last. Not anymore. You are finally ready to go from merely existing to flourishing.

How do I stop the negative chatter in my head? We often experience negative self-deprecating thoughts that have a huge impact on the way we feel and behave. These thoughts make us feel sad, lonely, angry, or anxious, leading to wrong choices or impacting our relationships with the people we love. Navigating through these thoughts and feelings is very difficult. However, you can learn to positively restructure the way you think of the world and yourself. Your life experience is unique and you have the opportunity and capacity to live your best life.

Your history has impacted you in such a way that building walls is an automatic response to create a sense of safety.

I am currently only accepting new clients for Assessments (ADHD, learning disabilities, mood disorders, etc). Do you feel stuck, or at an impasse in your current life? Perhaps the use of a substance or a behavior has become a larger piece of your life than you wanted it to. It could be that anxiety or depression have kept you from achieving what you want, or being who you want to be. Maybe you’ve had a change in your life that’s been difficult to handle. Perhaps your child/teen is having difficulty at home or in school. I have experience working with clients of all ages, and tailor my approach to each individual.

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.
