Many of us struggle to break free from long-standing patterns that become ingrained in how we relate to ourselves and others. These patterns can pervade our daily lives, pulling us away from genuine presence in the fleeting, vital experiences that give life its depth, while hindering our growth and success. They can leave us disconnected from meaning, belonging, and a sense of possibility. Yet by recognizing and loosening them, space opens not only for greater presence, growth, and connection, but also for a more authentic engagement with the questions of existence itself—how we love, create, and find purpose.

A quiet space to talk about feelings and life experiences can help when we are overwhelmed or stuck. The desire for inner peace and hope during turmoil often brings people to therapy. Traumatic experiences coupled with current life stress often take our energy and hope away. These need to be gently addressed in order to feel more comfortable in life. I respect that each person does this in his or her own unique manner. I also work with individuals who find their "golden years" may include depression, isolation, illness, grief and loss.

Hoarding Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?
Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.

How long does therapy for hoarding take?
Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.

Are there medications for hoarding?
The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.

Can hoarding come back after treatment?
Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
