Hello! I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in evidence-based treatments for OCD, PTSD, anxiety disorders, body dysmorphic disorder, hoarding, tic disorders, hair-pulling, and skin-picking. I also provide gender- and identity-affirming care to LGBTQIA+ individuals. I offer telehealth in over 40 states as well as in-person therapy at our Center City office in Philadelphia. Clients of all backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences are welcome!
I have worked alongside experts in the treatment of OCD, trauma, anxiety, and related concerns. I use gold-standard approaches, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based treatments that help create meaningful and lasting change.
I believe therapy should be both supportive and effective. My approach is active, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs, values, and goals. Together, we will develop practical strategies to help you face fears, break unhelpful patterns, and build a life that feels more fulfilling and aligned with what matters most to you.
