Hi, and thanks for visiting my profile! I'm Josh Kaplan, a compassionate and experienced therapist dedicated to helping individuals overcome Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and co-occurring Depression. With over a decade of specialized experience, I understand how these challenges can impact every aspect of life—but more importantly, I know what works to help you break free. Whether you’re struggling with intrusive thoughts, panic, phobias, agoraphobia, or chronic worry, relief is possible with the right treatment.
I have spent the last 14 years specializing in evidence-based, gold-standard anxiety treatments, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Exposure Therapy. These proven approaches help disrupt cycles of anxiety, panic, and intrusive thoughts, guiding you toward meaningful and lasting relief.
My goal is to empower you with the tools and strategies to take control of your life. Together, we’ll address unhelpful thought patterns, face fears, build skills, and implement changes that create real, lasting progress. If you're ready to take the next step in your recovery, I'm here to help. Schedule a free online consultation, or email me with questions.
