Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Long Neck, DE

I founded Compass Mental Wellness Services to bring a new level of mental health care to Sussex county, understanding that psychotherapy has approximately 60% positive outcomes overall. When you add any complexity to an individual case, the likely hood of positive outcomes decreases even further. I have strived to build a model of psychotherapy that can be used with any therapeutic technique but uses neuropsychological principles to enhance treatment by working with the brain instead of against it. I also utilizes cutting-edge neurophysiological treatment techniques to enhance treatment and enhance positive outcomes.

Our mission is to provide Adults, Children and Families with the necessary resources and tools for maintaining and thriving in our complex world.

I hope that all of my clients can find happiness through improved self-esteem, relationships, positive thinking, and healthy support systems.
