Let me guess: you’re always the one thinking about what could go wrong and wish you could just relax and go with the flow like everyone else. You know these worst case scenarios probably won’t come true, but once they're in your mind, your body reacts like they're happening right now. So you analyze every decision, replay conversations, and second-guess yourself again. You're constantly in your own head, losing hours of your day to endless doubt spirals, intrusive thoughts, and never-ending “what ifs”. Your OCD has slowly taken over more and more of your life and you feel stuck, hopeless, and don't know where to go from here.
I’m here to help you finally break the cycle of OCD at its root. You’ll learn how to quiet your intrusive thoughts, regain trust in yourself, and stop spending hours a day on compulsions that cost you precious time and energy. I use a combination of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and intuition-based work.
After therapy, your life won’t be dictated by obsessions, rituals, and constant doubt. You’ll move through your day with more freedom, confidence, and mental space for relationships, work, and rest. When OCD stops running the show, you’ll finally live life on YOUR terms. Reclaim your time and peace of mind. Reach out today for a free 20-minute consultation.

It's common for OCD to make you feel disconnected from your true self, which is why I incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps you realign with your values and get back to spending your time on the things that matter most to you. I love using Brainspotting to get to the root of trauma and transform from the inside out.
