If OCD or anxiety has taken over too much of your life, you may already know how exhausting it is to live inside constant checking, reassurance seeking, overthinking, avoidance, or intrusive thoughts you cannot shake. You may also struggle with ADHD, insomnia, shame, trauma, depression, relationship stress, hair pulling, or skin picking. These patterns can make you feel trapped even when you understand them. With focused therapy, you can stop organizing your life around fear and begin moving toward steadier ground. Understanding the pattern matters, but real change usually requires practicing a new way of meeting it.
I am a licensed psychologist who works with adults using ACT, CBT, ERP, EFT, and clinical hypnosis when appropriate. Therapy focuses on helping you respond differently to anxious thoughts, intrusive fears, painful memories, and urges, so you can build a life guided more by your values than by fear.
My style is warm, direct, collaborative, and practical. I take evidence-based work seriously while also making space for depth, honesty, and the complexity of being human. Together, we will identify what keeps you stuck and practice tools you can use outside of session. Contact me or visit my website to learn more.
