| español Struggling with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or food-related fears can feel overwhelming and exhausting. You may be balancing school, work, or relationships while feeling like anxiety is running the show. You might feel stuck between wanting change and fearing what it will require. At Compassionate Healing Institute, I specialize in evidence-based care including ERP, CBT, and exposure-based nutrition support for OCD, anxiety, and eating disorders. Our work is collaborative, paced, and compassionate. Together, we’ll face uncertainty, building confidence, and help your life expand again.
I am a Cognitive-Behavioral therapist. I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention. I have worked across various levels of care including residential, intensive outpatient and outpatient therapy for both eating disorders and OCD. I also specialize in anxiety disorders, BFRBs, Tics and Skin Picking. I offer in-person, teletherapy and home sessions.
I am the founder of Compassionate Healing Institute, where I currently conduct individual, group and family therapy. I am bilingual and of Colombian nationality so I provide services in both English and Spanish. My approach to treatment is culturally sensitive and my practice is inclusive of the LGBT. Call me today for a FREE 30-minute consultation.
