I most enjoy working with clients who desire to play an active role in their own healing journey and at the same time are open to the creative process of how we might arrive at their goals. From my experience, clients who are curious, trusting, and honest (with me and themselves) tend to be most satisfied by therapy. More specifically, I work with clients experiencing relationship issues, anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, existential questions, grief, behavior issues, ADHD, and distress related to their cultural identity (religion/spirituality, sexuality, race, gender, etc.).

Our therapists have special interests in treating anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), phobias, social anxiety, selective mutism, and PTSD.
Everyone feels anxious at times. Anxiety motivates us to prepare for important events and protects us when we are in harm's way. However, anxiety becomes problematic when it is out of proportion to the situation in a way that interferes with daily activities. Though anxiety is very treatable, only about one-third of those suffering from an anxiety disorder receive treatment. With the right type of therapy, the prognosis for anxiety disorders is very good; however, without treatment, anxiety tends to become more debilitating.

I see a variety of people about relationships (including couples), anxiety (panic, phobias, obsessive thinking, stress), depression, sudden trauma, alcohol/substances recovery and other problems.
Thanks for taking time to view my information. I try to be what I would look for in a psychologist: someone who is tactful, cares about the person, and responds with both knowledge and compassion. You will find me to be interactive. I will not sit silently or simply reflect what you just said. I will let you know my perceptions and discuss research, making suggestions on ways to feel better. I tend to focus both on your emotions and your thoughts. You will do most of the talking, but you will get a genuine reaction from me.

With experience treating Anxiety, Depression, Grief, and OCD, I have worked with Active Duty soldiers, Veterans, adults, and adolescents by using various forms of treatment to address the symptoms that they are current experiencing.
Navigating through the challenges that we experience in life can be a huge undertaking. Feelings of loneliness, hopelessness, or being misunderstood can prevent you from reaching out to someone for help, as you may feel that no one could possibly understand what you are going through. The want and need to live a happy and fulfilled life can seem so out of reach and the confusion as to why others seem to have this mastered can reinforce these thoughts. As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I am here to help you overcome these thoughts and feelings and live a life where you are not just surviving, but thriving.

If you are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, OCD, PTSD, or related conditions, I am passionate about helping you to change your life. I received my PhD & MA in clinical psychology from UT Austin, specializing in anxiety disorder research and treatment. I seek to provide a safe, warm, and affirming environment where your individual experience is validated. However, I do not believe that warmth alone is enough for competent treatment. When finding a doctor to treat a broken arm you certainly want a provider who is kind, but unfortunately even the most empathetic doctor will be ineffective if they do not know how to cast an arm!

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
