Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, PhD, LMFT with over 16 years of clinical experience helping individuals and couples acquire strategies and tools to overcome issues/disorders that interfere with functioning and enjoying life. Key areas of expertise include OCD as well as anything on the anxiety spectrum including general anxiety, social anxiety, panic, PTSD, phobias. Also work extensively with depression, relationship and adult attachment problems, other self-sabotaging behaviors, positive aging, career and life transitions, grief, and parenting/family issues.
OCD in particular is an area that many people struggle with, often not knowing that it is OCD and quite frequently doing/not doing things that actually make it worse. I help clients understand OCD to remove mystery and shame while gaining awareness and control to use well researched strategies and tools including exposure with response prevention (ERP).
Most people feel relief and hopefulness when they realize that what they are struggling with is not unique to them or based on some character flaw or weakness. If you have been struggling and what you have been doing isn't working, despite doing it frequently, please know that you can get help to find your way beyond the struggle.

I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice because most people find it notably more useful then conventional talk therapy. Depending on what brings someone to therapy, I also supplement CBT with other approaches that are relevant to the therapeutic goals and/or preferences of the client/clients.
