Therapy can help you enhance your awareness of how your unrealistic or negative beliefs and thinking patterns about yourself and others undermine the quality of your life. Therapy can help you change those dysfunctional thoughts and beliefs. These changes in thinking will go hand-in-hand with improvements in your moods, decisions, quality of your relationships, and the quality of your life. Therapy can help you overcome grief and loss, navigate major changes and life stages, enhance motivation, improve coping skills for dealing with stress, anxiety, and fear, and learn to deal with anger, rage, frustration, and disappointment more constructively.

People often assume you're doing fine because you're successful, dependable, and always seem to have it together. What they don't see is the anxiety, intrusive thoughts, self-criticism, or emotional exhaustion you're carrying beneath the surface. When you're used to pushing through on your own, therapy can be a place to slow down, gain perspective, and make meaningful change. I work especially well with high achievers who often appear to be managing everything well while privately struggling with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, or the effects of trauma. My approach is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented.

I specialize in helping people overcome anxiety and OCD using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).
Many of the people I work with feel caught in a cycle of worry, guilt, or self-doubt. They’ve tried to think their way out of anxiety or push away uncomfortable feelings—yet the relief never seems to last. Often, they carry this struggle quietly, feeling alone with thoughts that feel too painful or too hard to share. Deep down, they long to feel lighter, calmer, and more present—to live with a sense of freedom and connection instead of fear and mental exhaustion.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
