Accepting New Clients! Are you overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors? My goal is to help you break out of this rut and feel present again. Together, we will work to understand your obsessions and compulsions, create a treatment plan, and implement it at a pace appropriate to your experience. In order to accomplish this, I also place an emphasis on behavioral change, including a holistic approach for both physical and mental well-being. I will challenge you to take small steps towards the life that feels authentically yours and free from the constraints of OCD.
I primarily work with teens, college students, and young adults. I specialize in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, as well as Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors, and anything related to being neurodivergent. I blend evidence-based techniques from Exposure and Response Prevention, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and the Comprehensive Behavioral Model (ComB).
You may feel stuck with repetitive and intrusive thoughts and behaviors. I'm here to serve as an informative guide to get you started in this process of healing. Let's work together to create a future where you feel present, healthy, and happy.
